With the elimination from the World Cup (courtesy of Croatia after a penalty shootout), Brazil once again stumbled on the way to the sixth planetary crown, and after parting with the coach Tite, the rumors about his heir at the bench of Seleção started. The first strategist whose name appeared was of Pep Guardiola, and in the days that followed, a question came front of whether it was time for a foreign coach. The Brazilian public was divided by the dilemma, and the legendary Rivaldo expressed his opinion via social networks.##NAJAVA_MECA_6886335##”I don’t agree with the idea of hiring a foreigner as a coach, I think it’s shows lack of respect for the Brazilian experts. I believe we have coaches who are able to take over the Brazilian national team at this moment and do a good job, such as: Rogerio Ceni, Fernando Diniz, CuCa, Renato Gaucho and Dorival Junior. Bringing in a foreign manager is not a guarantee that we will be world champions. Especially since, if it is certain, I believe that the foreign manager would like to be world champion with his own country and to make his nation happy, and they probably want it more than Brazil, because we have won the trophy five times already”, emphasized Rivaldo.It is official: Tite is no longer the coach of Brazil, the fans want GuardiolaBrazil holds the record with five ‘Goddesses’ in its possession, but they won the last one two decades ago. Back in 2002, the South American national team ascended to the throne by defeating Germany, and it was Rivaldo who was part of the national team that defeated Germany – the Selecao was then led by the double scorer Ronaldo.”Foreigners are also undoubtedly very good coaches, but the Seleção is ours, our national team and it must be managed by someone with Brazilian blood flowing through their veins. The most important are the players, we must help them, encourage them and raise their confidence because we have a nice generation on the way and the core of the team has experience. The World Cup is a short tournament and small details decide whether you win or lose,” said Rivaldo. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Rivaldo Ferreira (@rivaldo)
