1. He's a great tactical mastermind, but a tactic is nothing without players, he called the best players for our national team but unfortunately they didnt performed how they should, they were more interested in breaking records, $$ in the bank and powerful cars in garages, and so on... They just didnt give a damn to playing football so thats why everyone is wrongly blaming Parreira, when they lose, the manager is blamed for it, but when they win games, i never saw someone giving congrats to the manager...
2. Parreira did nothing wrong, he called the best players and mounted a tactic to suit them. What more he should do? A manager isnt told to defend penalties or score goals, its the players. But unfortunately, its a bad habit we have here, always blame the manager when our teams lose games.
3. I dont give a damn to the score of the game or how many goals we score as long as we keep winning titles... If we won Confederations Cup and Copa America with ties and low scores, I'm happy. I prefer to win games by 1:0 instead of 4:3. The "joga bonito" thing is shite and wont make you win titles. The 1994 world cup is a good example of how you should play soccer, an objective, counterattacking football. And the 1994 team was the best in brazilian soccer history. Boring? Well, if you want something exciting, then you should have sex with your girlfriend or buy a ticked to watch the Cirque du Soleil. Football is all about results not the show.
4. Experience. The older players had it, the young players hadn't. Experience is a key factor to win a world cup. Simple as that. I'd have started the world cup with the same lineup he used.
5. And i'll be supporting any team coached by Parreira in the next World Cup, of course
