- Start date
or maybe not. 
4-1
Lovely goal. Netherlands don't face Brazil next so.
Deserved for Fernandinho, good game he had.
Silly quick free kick there. A chance to alleviate some of the pressure.
Yoda? You is that?
Great team goal
Fernandinho should definitely start ahead of fecking Paulinho anyway.
Plus the fact that people said the same stuff they say about Neymar atm.
A cameroon goal would make things fun
What?
Paulinho has been immensely disappointing for us, he was the signing I was most excited about as well. Has looked very average indeed in midfield and excels at nothing in particular, hence my surprise he often starts for Brazil.
Very well deserved goal for Fernandinho, and he also has a role in the build-up to the previous goal. He has suited Brazils counter-play and brought the ball out from defence quickly and this coupled with accurate quick forward passing.
His performance even without goal should guarantee him the starting berth versus Chile.

So what? Not a Star Wars fan so I don't get the joke.
He is saying you look like Yoda. Don't take it.
I read your post in Yoda's voice, when you said good game he had.
It's probably just me
Cameroon really need to get their house in order this is the second World Cup where they've been a complete joke.
How disappointing, I accept nothing but praise towards my English.
Brazil through.
Fernandinho needs to be the permanent starter.
I think being compared to Yoda is pretty much the ultimate accolade.
Entertaining game. Disappointing to see Neymar go off with an injury when he was clearly in-form. I'll never understand why Hulk is in the squad, let alone starts. Poor player, who only seems to a strong shot and the fact he's built like a tank. Should be a good game against Chile in the next round.
Yep, his performance even before the goal should guarantee him a starting berth in the knockout round versus Chile.
Paulinho just lacks the pace and agility to counter attack sufficiently with this Brazil side, unable to bring the ball out from defence quickly enough and then lacks the quick thinking to pick out accurate through balls to the forwards.
He's actually pretty quick as midfielders go and athletic. He just doesn't excel in any particular area and is a bit average. There's nothing really wrong with him, has an eye for goal as well, but he's just uninspiring. Fernandinho is certainly better.
Awesome, thanks
Yep. Small green ugly looking creature that often predicts the future incorrectly and dies in a mud hut in the middle of a bog.Awesome, thanks
Well done chap.
when will Felipao put in Fernandinho, Willian and Jo in the place of Paulinho, Hulk and Fred? I hope not when its too late
Agree about the first two, but Jo's just as shite as Fred IMO. All their striker needs to do is distract the defenders and stretch the defence, creating space for Neymar to roam around just outside the box and score goals like the two today (although the first was a classic poacher's goal, with great movement to free himself some space). That said, if they're chasing the game, I'd rather they pull off the striker and throw Neymar up there, putting on another midfielder to change the shape.
Jo's even worse.
Fernandinho changed the game completely. He MUST start against Chile instead of Paulinho.
Absolutely no arguments here. Can't believe he even made the squad.
