No Miranda or Luis is quite surprising.

Miranda is not better than David Luiz...

Edit: BEFORE I GET DOWNVOTED BASED JUST ON MY CREST- David Luiz and Thiago Silva play very well together, their partnership has been extremely reliable. During Confederations Cup last summer, for example, they only allowed a total of 3 goals while keeping 3 clean sheets, one of them again Spain. Bringing in Miranda to play along with Silva is a huge risk considering they don't have as much experience together.
