Football conspiracy

Popular in the 19th century, the French writer-humorist - Alphonse Allais sarcastically remarked:
"Pay attention to the difference between us and the British. We, the French, give names to the streets and squares of our cities in places of military victories! For example, Ien Square, Vagram Street. And these Englishmen act just the opposite - they give names to the places of military defeats: Trafalgar Square, Waterloo Square "...
This I mean, as many know, before our national team (USSR) in football (unofficially, of course) was considered (and rather - we ourselves thought) world champions in friendly matches.
But now the lose-lose series of the team reached seven matches. In 19 games, only three wins (over Ghana, Romania and New Zealand) and 9 defeats. Record low rating in FIFA - 66th place
Match with the Turkish team, ended in a draw - 1: 1, was the seventh in a row, in which the wards of the Russian national team coach Cherchesov could not achieve any victory.
Before that, the Russian team lost to Austria, France, Brazil and Argentina, and also tied with Spain and Iran (of course, the record of the former coach of the Russian national team Byshovets does not exceed 6 defeats in 6 games, but in the first place, Byshovets is already great because he led our USSR team to the gold of the 1988 Olympic Games, brought our CIS team to the final part of the European Championship in 1992, where in the first match until the last minute we led the world champions Germany (oh, if not a miracle goal with a penalty Hessler), in The second match was played by ch champions of Europe - Holland, and not Jew, to be honest, gave way to Scotland (underestimated!) and secondly - all the matches were official, and when Cherchesov became the national coach - were friendly matches (if not to take the Confederations Cup matches)
Involuntarily a feeling arises: are we not succumbing to comradely and control matches now?
What if the players (according to the idea of ​​someone over!) We are taught that be prepared - in the next round of the competition we will not leave, like - humble yourself! And most media are hitting the same point!
Because if you are accustomed to success in football, like in hockey, and then just lose and fly out right away at the group stage - this can lead to some bitter anger in society, and if provocateurs-foreigners get caught in a hot hand, witnesses our fiasco (and football - this is a political matter) - they will not seem a little!
Do you remember how, after the World Cup match with Japan, which we had to easily win, and lost and flew out, how many cars were smashed in the capital, (and in our not Japanese), how many innocent car owners suffered (i.e. they received double damage - and moral - from the departure of our team and material).
It is clear that we have to bitterly joke, but something else is difficult to explain our so not expressive game in recent matches.
Yes, everyone understands that we played against the backdrop of the loads, yes - Germany itself also lost to the Austrian national team after us, yes, no one is particularly laid out in the control matches. But after all, football thinking - it's either there or not!
Or we will hide it our football thinking before the decisive matches at the World Cup 2018?
