As he has just signed for Juve after being on lone, there is no chance.
Day 9: Brazil vs Costa Rica, Nigeria vs Iceland, Serbia vs Switzerland
- Thread starter whatwha
- Start date
Yes, I'm loving his attitude to Neymar's crap throughout
This Bolanios player is so shite.
He must be. Don't think there is a quicker player in football over 5-10 yards.
This Brazil team would look a lot more threatening with Firmino up front imo.
Amazing how tight all these matches are. The only convincing win for a big faviroite has been Belgium and even that was a tight first half.
Jesus' stepovers looked like they were in slowmotion. He really doesn't look very good at much other than moving and finishing.
Was going to say the same. Wastes every good opening for Costa Rica.
Imagine Germany, Brazil and Argentina being eliminated in the first round

Brazil 0-0 Costa Rica
Pat Nevin
Former Chelsea winger on BBC Radio 5 live
Christian Bolanos has made a real difference since he has come on and it tells you that Costa Rica do feel they can go on and get the three points here.

That's not Fred.
Oh my, nice chance for Costa Rica.
Obviously Pat Nevin, he's never wrong!
IMV Paulinho has been their best player today.
This game lacks Fred
Manager needs to throw the kitchen Fredge at them.
Wow Neymar really squandered that.
What's the point in having both Casamero and Paulinho in the side against Costa Rica?
Tight game, Costa Rica has looked far better than expected (or Brazil has been far worse than I expected).
Costa Rica are a decent side - very few properly awful sides in the tournament.
That’s quite a chance
What a miss!
Poor from Neymar
Neymar
Oh Neymar.
Gamboa, pay attention! Uff.
wow
Neymar clearly lacks match sharpness and fitness.
Ney-Ney should have scored that.
A draw here would mean "unstoppable" Brazil have earned just 1 point more than Argentina in crisis in the WC. Surely not.

The amount of passes Casemiro misses is incredible for a player that’s so important for Brazil and Madrid
THIS IS NEYMAR.
I think that would be quite likely to happen
Don't get me wrong I don't want us to sign him, I'd like us to go all out for Bale, but I could easily see it happening
He has to hit the target at least.
Ruiz has beautifull technique. If he was slightly quicker in his play he’d be world class.
Awful miss
Tbh Pat Nevin's such a non-entity pundit, I can't remember if he always spouts shit or not.Obviously Pat Nevin, he's never wrong!
Spaghetti head has been rubbish.
Fred wouldve buried that
Fred wouldve buried that
Fred would have buried that.
EDIT: SNAP! Give the people what they want. Fred.

Not watching the game but how are brazil playing?
It seems a lot of people rushed to tip them for the world cup seemingly on the basis of some sort of cyclical prophecy that they were due, but it doesn't sound like they are convincing. I only heard one pundit before the tournament that said they play negative football and are missing something of the Brazil teams of old, wish I remember who as they had obviously done their homework.
