Honestly Mourinho might not be a bad fit for them. You're usually not going to win international tournaments with elaborate tactics. And similar to Ancelotti or Deschamps, he's a pragmatic manager who can give a team like Brazil a simple enough system and let individual quality do the rest.

Diniz has a fascinating approach but it's simply not going to work with the limited time a national team spends together, and certainly not with players ingrained with the "European playstyle".
