Casemiro: In my era, Neymar and Merro, he is the best in the world.

June 9th June 8:45 on June 11th, Brazil will face Paraguay in the 16th round of the World Cup qualifiers. Before the game, Brazilian midfielder Casemiro attended the press conference.

Working with Ancelotti again

Casemiro: "I have the honor to work with him when he coached Real Madrid for the first time and for the second time. There is no doubt that one of his strengths is humanity, his relationship with the players, this sense of closeness, and the ease of getting along with the players. Despite such a brilliant resume in football, he is still a humble person. This sense of humanity, this sense of freedom with the players is one of his strengths. As for the champion , His achievements can be talked about for a few days, but what really surprised me every day was his personal charm. "

role in the national team

Casemiro: "First of all, it's on the court, which is the most important thing for me, doing things well on the court, building prestige, and passing on experience. Of course, afterwards, when you have worked with the coach and understanding his work ideas, it's really more convenient. Even if it's easier to convey to others, I've been here longer and have more say in the locker room. I'm already a little easier. I'll say again: Ancelotti is very easy to get along with, very humble, and willing to listen to opinions. It's easier."

vs. Paraguay

Casemiro: "Each game is a different story. When talking about the characteristics of the team, it's very likely...we're guessing here: it's going to be a game that emphasizes ball control, and Ba Ruguay hopes to rely on counterattacks to play. This was the case in the last match. We tried to tear the opponent's defense line, while they looked for opportunities in the rapid offensive and defensive transition, relying on speed players. This will be a more test of psychological stability, and you must know how to grasp the right opportunity. As for the fans, if Brazil considers playing defensive football, it will not work. Brazil's characteristic is offense. But we must improve. I said that we are in a good state now and it is useless. Brazil We must always be at the highest level and always respect our opponents. Compared to the previous game, we did not concede goals, and our defense was very stable. Now we need to take another step and do a better job of offense. Unfortunately, we only trained for three or four days, and now we have to reorganize the offensive line, and we must give priority to offense issues. This is all a construction process. At the pre-match arrangement meeting, the coach emphasized the issue of attitude many times. It is not who defends better, but attitude. The team's attitude in the last game was very good. Now, especially in this game against Paraguay, their characteristics are more inclined to counterattack. We must prioritize the offensive aspect and be more aggressive in the last thirty meters in front of the opponent's goal."

Nemar

Casemiro: "What else can you say about Neymar? He is an unparalleled player. In the football era I have experienced, he is one of the top three: Neymar, Ronaldo and Messi. We know he needs a good body shape The situation. As long as he is in good health, he is undoubtedly the best. The coach said the same thing. It depends on whether Neymar can recover his good physical condition and find happiness. He is necessary for the national team and any club in the world. But he needs to be in good health, both physically and mentally. If this guy is in good health, he will be far more than everyone else. We need players of this level. When he is in good health, his role will be earth-shaking. He is a player of another planet."

"master" of the national team

Casemiro: "I actually don't say anything, but the president and the head coach here are the chairman and the head coach. We are kidding after all. I am a soldier, like all players, the head coach's soldier, the Brazilian national team, and we all want to do the best for the national team. No one can say the final word here. That 'master' is just a joke, and it is also a reflection of my relationship with Vinicius."
