    I think for Brazil the best thing is having Dante at the back and Luiz in midfield, Dante and Silva would probably be the most solid defensive partnership international wise, still think there has to be a better pair of fullbacks for Brazil than Alves and Marcelo, could get away with one of them in the team but not two, up front you have Damiao who is the certain starter but is injured and is better than Pato or Fred, one more good season and he will be World Class
    My team:
    --------Cesar-------
    ?----Silva----Dante----Marcelo
    ---Paulinho----Luiz
    Oscar---Kaka---Neymar
    --------Damiao-------

    Kaka is more hope than expectation, but throw him that last hurrah and see if he rekindles that form that would propel Brazil to a World Cup, he still has it in his locker

    The Italy and Mexico players are sweating and the games not even kicked off, must be roasting.

    Italy have started well, Balotelli is looking dangerous.

    Italy looking very unlike Italy, big emphasis on getting players further up the park!

    Would disagree on people saying Damiao is a guaranteed start as a striker if not injured.

    Fred edges it for me, I'm a big fan of him. His control to bring the ball down for Neymars goal yesterday was top class.

    Indeed. And yet still miles better than Martin Keown.

    Where's El Shaarawy? Is he injured?

    How good is this Giaccherini?

    Balotelli is a greedy * that's about 3 or 4 times he had men running off him and try's a shot
