    just that. Yesterday we attacked with pace and skill that will be too much for a lot of the sides we will face. The defence will take time to work together and I expect we’ll get put to the sword initially but once gelled we should hold our own.
    It could end up being the Brazil ethos of you score 3 against us and we’ll put 4 past you.
    I don’t expect to win any of our first 3/4 games.

    We scored some good goals yesterday due to our pressing game, especially the third one.
    Unless all the other teams in the Champ have changed their system then we may surprise a few, hopefully sooner rather than later.

    Didn't Brazil get tonked by Germany in a world cup final?
    Brazil are now so overrated due to their past glories of 30/40/50 years ago but they haven't matched it in recent years. TV always hypes them up by playing lots of samba and bossa nova music and shows a Pele goal or two but the games then tend to be an anticlimax.
    Maybe with our current regime it should be "just like watching 'someone else' ".

    We look like we might be more like the Bassett team TBH, which would do me.
