Since 2012

According to the paper, ISE & Co. have stipulated that a certain group of "A Team" players must feature in all international competitions, and that any potential substitutes must meet a certain marketability standard.

States the document: "CBF will guarantee and ensure that A Team players that are playing in official competitions will participate in any and every match."

Germany doesn't think any of them are very marketable

Kind of like how Nike forced a very not well Ronaldo into the 1998 World Cup final?

Color me shocked.

I'd believe it. Some of squad selections are quite head scratching.

It exactly explains Fred. He is not even worthy a spot on a team of Brazil's caliber.

Must be why the little magician was left off in 2014

That's the point. Nobody (except maybe some Fluminese fans) thinks Fred is good enough or a marketable star.
