As for Brazil, I don't see the absence of Kaka nad Ronaldinho being the worst factors for the Brazilian team (even though they're definetely incomparable), but I do fear the lack of coordination and strategy as Dunga hasn't shown what he wants to make with this team yet. So far he has only "experienced" players and formations. We are still waiting to see his true Brazilian side, as he believes it shoud be. No one knows for sure what's coming...
I agree. Dunga was one of my all-time favourites as a player (who can ever forget the time when he attacked Bebeto at France 98 for not standing over the ball when the opposition were about to take a free kick), but I've seen quite a few Brazil matches recently (admittedly friendlies), and they have failed to gel into a really cohesive unit as yet.
However, given time, I think he'll do a decent job with the national team. But then again, if they fail to shine at the Copa, even a big name like Dunga will be shown the door - remember how Falcao was dismissed abruptly after Brazil's dismal showing at the 1991 Copa in Chile ...
