The score is 1-0 for Argentina. Milito scored the goal.

There are some tactical problems with how Dunga's Brazil play, like the full backs lack of attacking effectiveness and the poor connection between the midfielders and forwards.

Brazil's 4-2-2-2 is simply outdated. Our fullbacks can no longer leave for long offensive forays effectively. We need a real midfield, capable of width.

Before, the fullbacks were offensive and the team had two center-backs and two DMs almost purely defensive. Now the fullbacks have to be almost purely defensive too, and so 7 out of 11 players in the park don't do anything but defend.

If the fullbacks really can't be used to attack effectively anymore, the DMs must change for more offensive-minded midfielders. But we know how Dunga loves DMs and would use four or five if possible.

Would you like a 3-5-2 tactic, like this:

DC
DC
DC

WBR/M R
DMC
MC
MC
WB L/M L

SC
SC

One of the D Cs would have to play as DM C too.

Or do you want a 4-1-3-2 tactic (only 1 DM C, 3 M Cs)?

Or something else?

HT Venezuela 0-2 Argentina

[retired_jdupont]

4-1-3-2 tactic

Here I include variations, like 4-1-2-1-2, by the way.

[retired_jdupont]

Rosales on for Argentina.

[fat_boy_troy]

i wonder myself whats the matter with you all
we just need the fat ronaldo in a good mood

Or do you want a 4-1-3-2 tactic (only 1 DM C, 3 M Cs)?

Why 3 central midfielders? Why not wide midfielders and defensive fullbacks?

I used MC meaning midfielders, it can be 3 MCs and allow the full backs to advance, 1 central midfielder and 2 side midfielders, having the full backs play defensive roles. Or having an attacking midifelder and 2 side midfielders. Or whatever.
