César, Jefferson, Victor.

Centrail Defenders:
Dante, David Luiz, Thiago Silva, Henrique.

Fullbacks:
Dani Alves, Maicon, Marcelo, Maxwell.

Midfielders:
Fernandinho, Hernanes, Luiz Gustavo, Oscar, Paulinho, Ramires, Willian.

Attackers:
Bernard, Fred, Hulk, Jo, Neymar.

Notable omissions from the Brazil squad:
Kaka, Philippe Coutinho, Lucas Leiva, Rafael da Silva, Miranda, Felipe Luis, Robinho and Ronaldinho.

I created another thread and deleted it just now.

Happy for Fernandinho, he joined us partly to make it into the Brazil squad

Happy for him he wanted this to result from his big move to City.

But secretly gutted as it means a shorter pre season...

With the 23 man rosters not due until June 2nd why has brazil put theirs in so early?

When you know who you want, why delay. You can as well let the trusted lot know who they are.

In-case of injuries its almost last couple of matches now, also if someone is injured worst case you can still call some other person before June 2nd.

Now all the squad players, since they know who they are, they can pressure the clubs into not playing a big role in frendlies

Bernard, Fred and Jo? The front line sounds like a shit folk band.

Indeed, Brazilian football names aren't what they were (shakes old, balding head)

I dislike them, but they have so much quality in that squad. They can really win it all.

Good for Fernandinho.

He better not get injured though

That squad compared to England's. yikes!

Jo?!

Not our Jo???? Surely not

Sounds like a Rod Jane and Freddie tribute act.

No lucas moura is a shocker

From Bosnian names that u maybe know on list are Dzeko (City) Begovic (Stoke), Ibisevic (Stuttgart), Pjanic ( ASRoma) , Lulic(Lazio -Juventus sign),Spahic (Bayer Leverkusen),Kolosinac( Schalke04),Salihovic (Hoffenhaim),Mujdja (Fraiburg) ,Bicakcic (Eintracht),Hajrovic (Galatasaray) ,Zukanovic (Gent),Misimovic ( Guizhou Renhe- maybe some of u remember him from Wolfsburg, hold record in Germany for number of assist per season ever ) rest is Turkey Russia and Ukraine.I hardly can wait World Cup.Most of you it's normal to have team there and I used to be when we were Yugoslavia, now we are a country of 4 million people with a large number of idiots who run this country in the 19th century. Who is who and what is my great-grandfather was and do so we can fuck people ect. But that does not bother you I wanted to introduce you to a little our team. It is good that they and Pjanic and Edin, Begovic, Lulic, Salihovic in fantastic shape and stand out in their clubs.It would be great to pass the group, all over that , would be nothing short of miraculous.

Jo or Lucas Moura hmmmm interesting selection.

Lucas Moura hasn't been brilliant for PSG. Omission of the Atleti duo (Miranda/Felipe Luiz) is very strange though, they've been fantastic.
