most of football fans and especially Brazil fans around the world are criticizing the team, blaming them for a poor performance, but what are the main reasons for this:

the same prototype of players:

the type of players in the Brazilian national has changed through the years, and you’ll find many people saying that the old players were better because of the dribbling quality and the show and the beautiful football.

and that is true because the old type of players was originally made in the streets or in the schools unlike the modern type that transformed into academic players, the modern Brazilian players are made to be able to play in Europe, and that what made the team seem less skillful or less depending on their skills and more to the tactical side.

the constant change of the manager and the risky Dorival Júnior:

over the last year and half, the Brazil national changed the manager 3 times, this is an incredible number for a team, not even for a national team, the constant change will affect even the most powerful teams.

Dorival Júnior is an experienced manager that coached many teams in Brazil and won Copa do Brazil and Libertador's with Flamengo and the first ever Copa do brasil with Sao Paolo.

but in the last experience with Sao Paolo, he has achieved a win rate of 46%, and this is a low rate for a national team, he won a title but the winning rate count in the qualifications and in the ranking of the national team.

playing like Real Madrid:

most of the fans and the newspapers are talking about playing like Real Madrid in Brazil, and this is clear through playing with Rodrygo and Vinicius in the deep with Vinicius drifting on the left, Paquita behind them and Raphinha helping them on the wing.

the problem is that Real Madrid doesn’t have a style of play! they don’t have a particular one, Ancelotti said it, Real Madrid have the ability to adapt with different kind of styles, and the credit is to the strong and experienced midfield, the midfield players like Kroos that represent a manager in the stadium, he can alone lead the attack and even instruct his teammates.

the judgement is too early:

from sportingnews.com

the coach of the national team train with his players merely 2 weeks in every 3 or 2 months, how about if it was that the manager himself is changing constantly, this will affect any kind of players.

the team need the time to understand the coach ideas and style of play, it is too early to judge now.
