Aah, here we go again; Bucknor could
not have sad all this. He was taken out of context to sensationalise the news.
Firstly, Bucknor is a cricket umpire, he has never coached at the INTl level. Dacosta cup is different from the world cup. Brasilians weren't born to play that way they were coached to play that way. If you watch Ginga you will see that Brasil is screening out the players that play with the samba beat to get players with strong physical presence. The last of them is Robinho and it's only because of pele why binho is where he is today.
You wont see a Brasil team akin to 1982 where eight players are samba ballers (jogo bonito). You will see one or two but that's it. Since 82 I can name the Brasilians that can truly play the samba ball; Romario,Djalmina,denilson, Alex, Marcelinho Cariocas, Ronaldo (relies most on speed and power but has it in him) Rivaldo, Ronaldhino and the purest himself King Binho.
Now to answer the question about being unable to play with flair if not born in Brasil: Where was Totti born and raised? Where was Gaza Born and raised? Where was Klinsman born and raised? Where was Zidane born and raised?
I think at this point we should just strive to truly learn the game because the foreign coaches have made this region more competitive (the data is there to prove it).

Paul Marin -19 is one thing, 20 is a whole other matter. It gets even worse if they win the UCL. *groan*.
