Juan told Globo TV that everyone shares responsibility for the former champions' failure to get beyond the quarterfinals where they were defeated by France.

Coach Carlos Alberto Parreira, skipper Cafu, veteran defender Roberto Carlos as well as Barcelona superstar Ronaldinho were all singled out for particular criticism for the fiasco which befell the 2002 winners who had been expected to cruise to another World Cup.

"The level of responsibility of Parreira is equal to ours and everyone feels a little guilty," said the Bayer Leverkusen player.
