The well-travelled coach, known as 'Big Phil' to Chelsea fans, is back in the job which made him famous and promising the Selecao will be crowned world champions for the sixth time on July 13.
'There is no pressure on Brazil,' he said. 'Brazil are not under pressure to be the world champions.
'Brazil will be the champions.
'I wouldn't have accepted the Brazil job if I didn't think we could win the World Cup. I wouldn't be leading the team I'd be sitting at home.
'I took this job because I'm 100 per cent convinced that I will win the World Cup with Brazil.'
