"It's time to take a look at these players," he told a news conference in Rio de Janeiro. "The players who missed out have their importance but now we are taking the opportunity to observe a new generation."
Tite said Brazil's World Cup elimination left a "bad taste" and defended star forward Neymar, who has been heavily criticized for apparent play-acting during the tournament.
"I'm not here to judge or conceptualize behaviors," he said. "I'm not going to give my opinion about what people say, what the media reports. Neymar deserves praise for his behavior, for his discipline."
The 57-year-old reaffirmed his belief that Neymar is among the world's top three players and insisted that Brazil's No. 10 "has great potential to grow more."
