Brazil national team coach Tite has announced a 23-man roster for the upcoming games against West African giants Senegal and Nigeria on October 10 and October 13 respectively.

An analysis of the squad list revealed that three goalkeepers, eight defenders, six midfielders and six attackers are in contention to face the Super Eagles at the National Stadium in Singapore.

PSG's Neymar, Liverpool's Roberto Firmino and Barcelona loanee Philippe Coutinho are three of the top stars named in the squad.

Super Eagles winger Alex Iwobi could face his teammate at Everton Richarlison as he is among the strikers listed.

The other Premier League players summoned for the games are Ederson (Manchester City), Fabinho (Liverpool) and Gabriel Jesus (Manchester City).

It's not a World Cup Semi Final so I'm not expecting stage fright Nigeria should go for it with no pressure as for Senegal they look better when it's not an important game!

They'll probably use some of the stars for Senegal and try the rest vs Naija. But I like the fact that each segment of the team has at least one player listed, they really support their local league even though they have a battalion of players abroad they don't have to call local ones.

em they've won more world cups with local players, go check out the 2002 WC squad ....their League is one of the top leagues in world football....

To me Brazil lives from their past glories.
They might have won the cup in South America but they are not the power house anymore people want us to believe.
Where are their superstars except from Neymar the diva who wastes his talent in frustration?
There were times when Brazil were loaded with superstars - these times are long gone.
I know that a team is more than their individual talent but Brazil is one of these teams that was loaded with super stars in their word cup winning squads.

metalalloy,

Cameroon did that already at the Confederations Cup the year Marc Vivien Foe died.

...with Neymar we will be seeing rolling on the grass for a long time.

Thats my point now, they can name a team full of only foreign based Brazilians at anytime if they wanted, but they always make sure they include home based, that is something we need to build towards to actually be a top team in world footie we can't forgo our local league for foreign left-overs...

They just won Copa America without Neymar though. They may not have stars of yester years but are still very strong.

So if we HAVE to sacrifice a player who will you choose?

I'm just speaking hypothetically our words obviously won't have any bearing.
