Luiz Felipe Scolari (Felipão) started to put his mark
on the Brazilian national team yesterday. In announcing the players for the
friendly match against England on February 6 in London, the coach made it clear
he will change the tactical scheme put together by Mano Menezes, and rescued
four veterans.
In his first summons, Felipão
called Ronaldinho, Fred, Luis Fabiano and goalkeeper Julio Cesar. At least
three of them will have positions at Wembley. They’ve all played in at least
one World Cup, and except for Fred, are at least 30 years old.
Besides putting more
experienced players in key positions, Felipão announced that he will confront
the British with a player “more integrated in the attack.” In recent
matches, Mano had already abolished the fixed striker, and four athletes took
turns at the position.
Fred and Luis Fabiano will be
tested permanently at striker. According to the coach, each will play for a
time at the position.
Calling veterans, he pleased
the president of the CBF, Jose Maria Marin, who was in favor of inviting
experienced players. He pressed Mano on Fred and Ronaldinho.
Mano was fired by Marin in a
surprising decision of the leadership, when the national team started to play
well after failures in London in 2012 and in the 2011 America’s Cup.
