FIFA World Cup 2026 :Canada/Mexico/United States: Discussion Thread

[swogerino]

There is rumours about Ancelotti moving soon to train the Brazilian team. I think they should push for this to avoid seeing them playing bad in the future or even risking to be kicked from FIFA World Cup 2026 although this is hard to think about and unlikely to happen in my opinion.

I'm not really sure if Brazil is really serious about recruiting Ancelotti. Throughout history, Brazil has never recruited a coach who is not from their own country. I am sure that with the large amount of talent that Brazil has, they will definitely recruit coaches from their country because if they recruit coaches from other countries, it will have an impact on the characteristics of Brazil's game and this will be detrimental to Brazil in the long run. Moreover, Ancelotti, who is from Italy, is clearly very different from the style of play between Italy and Brazil. Therefore, I am sure that the Brazilian football federation will be more careful in recruiting a new coach because the target is not just to qualify for the FIFA World Cup 2026, but how the new coach does not abandon the characteristics of the Brazilian game that they have maintained for years.

Actually, Brazil has never been coached by foreign nationals outside Brazil.
Brazil has been trained by foreigners but in the old days

1 Ramon Platero (Uruguay)
Brazil's first foreign coach was Ramon Platero. This Uruguayan passport coach handled the Brazilian national team in 1925.

2. Joreca (Portugal)

The next Brazilian foreign coach is Joreca. Interestingly before coaching the Brazilian national team in 1944

3. Filpo Núñez (Argentina)
He coached the Brazilian national team in 1965.

That's why when we saw the news about Ancelotti joining Brazil, even the president of this country said they didn't want to have this coach and they preferred to use Brazilian coaches for their teams.
Brazil is a country that won the World Cup title more than any other country and that's why it's pretty much normal to see they prefer to don't use the non-Brazilian coaches.
But currently, they are not in a good situation and maybe Ancelotti join the team soon.

Currently they are up in a position where you qualify for the World Cup and their form recently have been in somewhat constant improvement.Sure they started these qualifiers not in the best of ways making quite a couple of false steps which at some point in the standings they were out of the qualifying positions but that is not the case anymore.

As for Brazilian coaches they tend to not do well in Europe but there is an exception and that is Sylvinho as the only Brazilian coach to have led a small country like Albania to be first of the group in Euro qualifiers and he will be the only Brazilian coach taking part in the Euro 2024 tournament.This is encouraging for them as before that the Brazilian coaches were only successful with a strong team like national team of Brazil.

It seems to me that in Brazil, leaders like to wear wooden glasses. Honestly, there are so many jokes coming from them that sometimes I tend to laugh so much that I can't contain myself. For example, regarding the Brazilian national team, the players that make up the Brazilian national team's squad are players coming from teams abroad, mainly from the big European teams, and when they hire a Brazilian coach who only has experience with Brazilian teams ( Brazilian local league), it is unlikely that this same coach will be able to create good strategies and make the team play very well in a way that brings good results, mainly because in Latin America there are already many national teams with good players and coaches

What makes Brazil no longer a team with extreme dominance over other teams, just look at the list of players from Argentina and Uruguay and we will see that they are two teams that have good players who play in Europe and have good coaches, and that This alone makes them capable of beating Brazil many times in a row, while Brazil has had players who are constantly involved in controversy, it is difficult for good Brazilian players to reach 38 years of age playing for major European teams. I sincerely doubt that the Real Madrid coach will accept the role of Brazil coach, that would only destroy his good reputation

I am wondering if we are looking at the same table for the Brazilian national team or if you have some other data available than anybody else, but my take is that Brazil lost all of their last three games in the World Cup qualifiers and they tied one game before that losing streak. This means they got 1 out of 12 points in the last four games. Does that look like constant improvement to you?

Ancelotti is not Brazilian obviously, but it is possible that the president will make an exception here because he knows that there are hardly any coaches available at the same level as Ancelotti. It could be a wise choice to give him a chance.

But it's real!
If it depends on the CBF, Ancelotti will be the new coach of the Brazilian team.
Even though there is no official agreement signed, this is what is expected from Ancelotti and Brazil for 2024 and so far the only thing that could prevent this is a contract renewal proposal from Real Madrid.
Unfortunately, all agreements so far are only verbal, so it is difficult to say what will actually happen.
Here in Brazil, the indication of the CBF for Lancelotti is very strong, but it seems to me that this is not what the coach wants for his future, otherwise he would have already confirmed this possibility.

As far as I know the deal is pretty safe between Ancelotti and Brazil although I don't know whether there have been any signings yet.

I assume that if Real Madrid can't find an alternative, maybe there will be compromise for one more season with Ancelotti. But he knows if he wants to prepare the Brazilian team for 2026, he can't wait any longer than until summer 2025. I am sure that coaching a national team at a World Cup is one of his big plans and getting the chance to take responsibility for the Brazilian team sounds like a great opportunity. But if he doesn't give it enough, time it might go wrong big time.

Yes, deal is already safe and most chances Carlos Ancelotti is now set for joining Brazil after end of 2024 season in La Liga and there is no doubt about this challenging job, but he is man who can bring changes even there are no good hopes for this job as currently Brazilian is down badly in confidence with their performance, but we all know talent is amazing just need to be managed someone extraordinary in this job, and we know about how competitive is Carlos Ancelotti.

After joining in 2024 he will be going to prepare things for the 2026 world cup which is surely not easy because he needs to start from scratch and also needs to be having well preparation for the qualifiers as well because currently they are not good which is also problem for them in near future.

I said that the deal seems to be "pretty safe" for a reason and that was because I couldn't find any sources definitely calling the deal "safe". Interest has been expressed from both sides from what I understand, but so far there hasn't even been a handshake confirming that this deal is sealed. If anyone knows a reliable source where we can read upon more reliable information about this agreement, I would like to know it. But this could still go in different ways when Real Madrid has no alternative and tries to convince Ancelotti to stay for one more season. I think there are less attractive jobs than being the coach of Real Madrid.

Of course, Alonso is supposed to be the new coach of Real Madrid. It is going to be a bit of a surprise if he is not. But it is still a long way away till the new season. A lot of things can happen in this time frame. But if everything is okay I think he is definitely going to be the new coach of Real Madrid. And looking at what he has done with his current team so far, I think this venture is going to be a success for him. And even with Real Madrid, I don't expect anything other than success. I would say that Real Madrid is pretty lucky. Because at this moment a lot of clubs are not finding the good coaches.

From several rumors that I received previously, Xabi Alonso himself actually wants to accept the offer that will be made by Real Madrid, but he wants to really make sure first that he can bring Leverkusen to win the Bundesliga.
And of course, when Xabi Alonso succeeds in bringing Leverkusen to win the Bundesliga, the market value will increase and Xabi will definitely get much bigger salary.

By coaching Real Madrid, it will be very possible for them to win every competition they participate in, there is even big possibility that they can also get treble winner considering that Xabi Alonso is great coach with very capable line-up of players and strategy.
Xabi Alonso ability is said to be able to bring about better changes for Real Madrid and can bring Real Madrid back to its lost glory days where it always dominated every competition, including the UCL.

Still everything comes back to Xabi Alonso whether he wants to leave Leverkusen more quickly or not and this will be the task of Real Madrid management or owners in convincing Xabi Alonso.

The latest news regarding FIFA World Cup 2026 is that the schedule will be out in a few weeks form now. The schedule release was supposed to happen several months ago, but it was delayed. Releasing the schedule will obviously help the host cities in their planning, and also it will be beneficial for the global audience to plan their travel (final plans can be done only after the qualifiers are complete). The tournament is being hosted by a total of 16 cities, spread across Canada, United States and Mexico.

Yes, you are right there is still quite long time to go until the new season and of course there will be many things that change and unexpected surprises that will definitely happen during the time leading up to the upcoming new season.
But many people believe that Xabi Alonso will indeed coach Real Madrid and this will also really provide peace for Ancelotti as the former Real Madrid coach when his contract expires.
Ancelotti himself has been coach of Real Madrid more than once, so he already has the belief that Real Madrid must be able to get coach who is much better than him.
That way, Ancelotti can be calm when coaching the Brazilian national team because the team he previously coached, namely Real Madrid, has got the right coach.

From Ancelotti experience and prowess in developing every game strategy, it is certain that Brazilian will grow even better and at the 2026 World Cup Brazilian will definitely perform with better performance than the previous World Cup.
Ancelotti is the big hope for all public Brazilian to be able to bring the Brazilian national team back to being able to compete very well in the most important competition in the World Cup.

I think have any official confirmation with Carlo Ancelotti will be Brazil manager at the 2024 Copa America after his contract expiry with Real Madrid, little confused with Copa America start on June 20 to July 14 next year but Carlo Ancelotti contract expiry on June 30 or ten days after Copa America have start. Actually is not much problem because La Liga competition end May 24 next year and he has one month left will get allowed from Real Madrid management let him go to be Brazil manager.
Regarding with La Liga schedule, Carlo Ancelotti not have more time with Brazil before playing in Copa America but he has much experienced and easily for him with short time teams he has capacity to make Brazil for winning Copa America.

Ancelotti joining Brazil is something we saw this news during the summer when the Real Madrid fans were wired when they were about to lose their coach but Ancelotti is not going to leave Real Madrid and now since Real Madrid is near to winning more achievements in La Liga and the Champions League with Ancelotti, I don't think if he will leave the team.
When they asked Ancelotti during the summer if he wanted to leave Real Madrid for Brazil he said he was interested in staying in Real Madrid for a longer time.

As of now, there is no hint from his side that Ancelotti will be moving to Brazil. Just yesterday he was commenting about the role of Aurelien Tchouameni as centre-back. Ancelotti wants to use Tchouameni in a defensive position until Nacho Fernandez is available again. Nacho got a red card during the match against Alaves and this forced Ancelotti to use Tchouameni as the centre-back. Also he is making his plans on how to enter the January transfer market for Real Madrid. Given this, I believe there is not much chance of him accepting the offer from Brazil.

Even with two and a half years to go until the 2026 World Cup, there are already places with World Cup odds 
And incredibly, Brazil is in first place
To tell you the truth, I don't agree, at the moment I don't see Brazil as favorite one anymore

• Brazil 6.50
• France 6.50
• England 7.00
• Argentina 10.00
• Spain 10.00

Brazil are always one of the main favourites for the championship. But I found it strange that Argentina are in fourth place, although they managed to win the last tournament by beating France, who are second in the ranking. But I wasn't surprised by the list of contenders. I probably wouldn't have believed that England would win.

But no, with all due respect I find these odds odd!

Whatever data they took to calculate these odds, but putting Brazil first right now looks like a stupid mistake in an easy exam. The funniest thing about this is that Brazil never before had to be concerned to fail to qualify! I know that it's unlikely, but as far as I can remember they have never been worse during the qualification. Yet they are the favorites? Let them lose one more game and it could get horrible for them. Since so many teams qualify, they will make the cut, but given what is known today these odds are weird as I said.

Well, I know there are many fans worldwide and we are all excited about football, I don't deny it, seeing how Brazil is doing in the World Cup, it has to start playing very well because the best player right now in the World Cup qualifiers is Argentina. I don't know why Brazil is in a state of shock right now, but they are not doing very well, they are going through a crisis in their football, because they have drawn and lost games, even when they are not in their poropia home, maybe it is something they are in a state of shock, that I don't know how to explain, I hope they improve, because it is very difficult to determine which countries are going to the World Cup, even though I say Brazil will always be one of the favorites, just like Argentina, France and Germany, but this World Cup I have all the faith that Italy will go, so we have to look at things, because I don't see Italy in these predictions, and Italy is a good team, they have a very good local league, in fact right now I like how Juve and Inter are playing , and that gives a lot of motivation to things.

Now, we are people who have been seeing everything that is possible to do, for example things in the next World Cup will be different, it is the first time that 3 countries will do it and that seems great to me, the fact is that I believe that everything will focus on the USA, which seems great to me, just as it was in 1994 when it was a great World Cup, but a very sad World Cup for Colombia because it was that fateful own goal they scored that later cost the player his life. I still remember that even though it was very small, but things are like that, so given that the World Cup has always been 1 or 2 countries at most, this will be an experiment that I think will be very successful, because it will have 3 more venues. games because there are more selections to play, this seems super spectacular to me because the things that can happen here are different, now, when we think about what the world championship will be, it excites me more, due to the fact that we have more days of world.

It's certainly difficult to predict the winner of any World Cup and I think the majority thought that France would make it Qatar. And if we are honest, history is brutal because it is written everywhere that Argentina won it and nobody will ever talk about France except for those who saw the game or are French. Argentina worked harder and that is why the game brought forward the right winner in my opinion, but it should be mentioned that once this went into the penalty shootout, really, it could have been France as well.

Italy, interesting you bring this up. I haven't paid a lot of attention to them in the last few months. We still have the European Championship before the World Cup and then we can go from there. But since these odds are out right now, I think nothing justifies to put Brazil at the top. If anything, it should have probably been France with a very slight advantage. But giving 50% higher odds for Argentina than for Brazil is puzzling to me. I thought about it and I can't come up with an explanation no matter how hard I try.

There is no doubt about Brazil and their quality and performance in soccer just because of this we are having odds like these even currently we have too much talk about them in media with their current form is not good, and they are at bottom of their qualifiers as well, but Bookies are doing their trikes for having some good mind-set about this all.

I was personally feeling most chances we will have them in main event and their performance could be also good, but now they are not going to have good chance for the win because Argentina is doing much better, and they are also having enough sources for defending their title with France can also compete for the title because they are also having good players those will be joined them again after failure in Qatar final.

The newly elected president of Argentina. Prior to the election, he promised the general public in his country that he would legalize Bitcoin in Argentina if elected. Maybe after he gets elected he is using the roundabouts. But it is being word of mouth yet its formality or its legality has not yet been declared on paper by the Argentine government. But since the newly elected president is discussing Bitcoin legalization, maybe Argentina will soon have Bitcoin legalization on paper. If Argentina legalizes Bitcoin, it will surely be good for the people of its country.

Brazil performance currently not really impressive well in World Cup and they got losses on qualifier matches, I think bit stupid with odd by putting Brazil on the first position teams standing have large potential for winning FIFA World Cup 2026. Since won FIFA World Cup 2002 never have fantastic achievement on last several world cup edition exactly with great opportunity become the hos of World Cup 2014 but Brazil failed to be the winner. Have been five edition of World Cup, brazil can't reach the final stage and I doubt with their sweet moment in World Cup for next edition easily lead to final stage.

My opinion Brazil seems have to put on ten position as favorite teams for winning FIFA World Cup 2026 in United State, Cadana and Mexico.

[Rampagoe004]

What makes Brazil no longer a team with extreme dominance over other teams, just look at the list of players from Argentina and Uruguay and we will see that they are two teams that have good players who play in Europe and have good coaches, and that This alone makes them capable of beating Brazil many times in a row, while Brazil has had players who are constantly involved in controversy, it is difficult for good Brazilian players to reach 38 years of age playing for major European teams. I sincerely doubt that the Real Madrid coach will accept the role of Brazil coach, that would only destroy his good reputation

That is an irony for the Brazilian squad. Nowadays they are no longer considered the strongest in football. It is even possible that they will no longer be considered a top 10 world football power. This is very sad because two decades ago they were the team that was the dream of all young children around the world. I think in the past there were no children who liked football who didn't know Brazil. I also grew up and saw how the great Brazilian players of the past with Jogo bonito brought beauty to football. It's very sad when today's kids don't even know Brazilian players and they only know Neymar.
