We need to rebuild this team from the ground up, no more Marquinhos/Casemiro/Neymar and players from the 2018/2022 cycle, none of them has shown real leadership under the NT and are just embarrassing them selfs and the NT, if we can't get anything out of our most experienced players then it's time to start investing in the next generation. Robert Renan, Murillo, Danilo, João Gomes, Vitor Roque, Endrick, Marcos Leonardo, etc all must be in the squad for 2026.
Yeah, obviously they are talented players, but they have to be one of the worst generations in terms of tournament success in Brazilian history.
A lot of times teams will stick with an established, but aging team one cycle too many, but usually that's when they've been exceptionally successful, like Spain in 2014.
Brazil should definitely be looking to develop a new young core so that they're ready to go for Copa next year, which will prepare them for 2026.
