Micale brinca, complica tradutora e recebe ligação de Diniz em entrevista

MatériaMais Notícias

Nem a tensão e a ansiedade antes da final da Olimpíada foram capazes de tirar o bom humor do técnico da Seleção Brasileira, Rogério Micale. Na última entrevista antes da decisão contra a Alemanha, sábado, no Maracanã, ele mais uma vez arrancou risos dos jornalistas, cometeu gafes e até complicou a tradutora que o acompanhava.

O lado gozador apareceu logo que o comandante canarinho adentrou a sala de imprensa do estádio:

– Desculpe o atraso. É que estamos ficando quase na divisa com Minas Gerais – brincou, fazendo referência ao hotel em que a Seleção está hospedada, no Recreio dos Bandeirantes, Zona Oeste do Rio de Janeiro.

De tão à vontade, Micale disse sentir-se batendo papo com os repórteres. O problema é que ele se alongou tanto em algumas respostas que passá-las para o inglês era praticamente impossível.

– Parece que estou tomando café e conversando com vocês – comentou o técnico, antes de pedir uma água.

Quando o treinador prometeu ser mais breve nas respostas, surgiu um outro problema. Micale esqueceu de colocar o celular do silencioso e o aparelho tocou durante a entrevista.

– Desculpa, pessoal. Era o Fernando Diniz (treinador do Oeste Audax), a gente se fala de vez em quando – revelou.

Apesar da atmosfera descontraída, Micale também falou sério, projetou a decisão de sábado, comentou o clima de revanche diante da Alemanha e pediu o apoio da torcida.

– Confira abaixo os principais trechos da entrevista:

ALEMANHA
Conhecemos a Alemanha, não só essa equipe, mas o modelo de jogo adotado em todas as categorias, das inicias à principal. Eles tentam ter a posse de bola, o jogo apoiado, falam da zona vermelha, algo que tentamos implementar na nossa seleção, que é quando os homens da frente afunilam o jogo em frente à área, dando espaço aos homens de lado. É um jogo extremamente perigoso, que eles estão acostumados a fazer pois trabalham desde as categorias inferiores. Temos de tomar cuidado na forma de marcar para contrapor a virtude que eles têm.

PRESSÃO
Estaremos fortes emocionalmente no sábado, já passamos por todas as emoções nessa fase curta de torneio. Tivemos questionamentos, depois vivemos outro momento e agora pegamos uma equipe muito boa, que nos remete a uma história recente. Não temos nada a ver com isso (7a1), vamos viver nosso jogo, fazer nossa final.

REFLEXOS DE 2014
Era a Copa do Mundo, aqui é a Seleção olímpica. Existia só um jogador naquele grupo que está aqui, o Neymar, e ele nem participou do jogo. É uma competição diferente, jogadores de idades diferentes… Não vejo como vincular isso. O torcedor está no papel dele. O que posso falar é que vamos precisar muito deles amanhã. A Alemanha é muito forte, não chegou à toa na final. Sabemos da evolução que aconteceu lá em fazer futebol. Vamos precisar do torcedor ao nosso lado, aí estaremos muito mais fortes. É um grande jogo, Alemanha x Brasil, mas não tem nada a ver com o que passou.

NEYMAR
Ele tem ciência do que representa para o Brasil e para o mundo como referência. As atitudes dele têm dado recados. Em outra entrevista, falamos que não era bom expressar com palavras, mas atitudes, tentaríamos falar com o futebol, com os pés […] O Neymar já está dando essa resposta, ele tem a responsabilidade desde jovem de conduzir a Seleção principal. Por tudo que ele é no Barcelona e na Seleção, ele vai dar esse plus aí.

Why Spurs need Nicolo Barella

Tottenham Hotspur’s defeat to Liverpool earlier in the week only emphasised how far away Jose Mourinho’s squad are from truly contending for the title under his tenure.

The north Londoners struggled to create chances against Jurgen Klopp’s fifth-choice centre-back, Nat Phillips, and Jordan Henderson, who was playing out of position on his return from injury.

Aside from Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg’s scorching solo goal, Spurs only had one other shot on target while across 90 minutes, Mourinho’s men mustered up just three attempts in total, via SofaScore.

Tanguy Ndombele has found himself in good form lately, scoring three goals in two matches prior to kick-off but he’s still not being the creative sort of influence like Christian Eriksen once was at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Despite pulling off four successful dribbles, the Frenchman failed to convert his drives forward with any real substance, failing to contribute a single key pass to Harry Kane or Heung-min Son.

A frequent occurrence as the club-record signing is averaging only one key ball per 90 minutes, via WhoScored, which ranks him eighth in this Spurs squad.

Similarly, he sits seventh for progressive carries forward (95.9 yards per 90) behind both Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg – who is a more defensive influence – and Giovani Lo Celso.

[snack-amp-story url=”https://www.footballfancast.com/web-stories/read-this-weeks-latest-spurs-news-and-transfer-rumours” title= Read this week’s latest Spurs news, transfer rumours and more…”]

His inability to get forward in this sense could be one reason why he’s not having a great influence in the attack.

Which is why the need for a new signing, perhaps in the form of mooted target Nicolo Barella, is required as soon as possible.

Spurs are said to be interested in the emerging Italy sensation by Calciomercato, just 18 months after his €49m (£45m) switch to Inter Milan from Cagliari, where former boss Rolando Maran lauded him “extraordinary.”

The 23-year-old has proven to be one of Antonio Conte’s biggest threats this term, delivering two goals and five assists. He has also managed 1.5 key passes per 90 minutes, an increase on Ndombele’s returns, per WhoScored.

Barella is also averaging 151.1 progressive carries forward per 90 minutes, a whole 56 more yards than Ndombele in the Premier League this term, so it’s no wonder that he is able to be more of a creative presence for Inter, via FBRef.

Evidently, the 18-cap Italian international can bring Spurs something that their leading man cannot, so Levy must sanction a move for him as soon as possible.

The “warrior full of determination” could lower the burden on Kane and Son, who have contributed 24 goals and 17 assists between them compared to the four goal contributions from Ndombele.

Spurs need Barella more than ever.

Celtic: Lawwell making smart decision by offering Conor Hazard new deal

Celtic are reportedly looking to offer a new bumper deal to reserve goalkeeper Conor Hazard. That’s according to Football Insider, who claim that Peter Lawwell is looking to increase his terms after the 22-year-old stepped up to the plate in Celtic’s last two matches.

Hazard started ahead of Scott Bain and Vasilis Barkas against both Lille and Kilmarnock, helping the Hoops return to the winning streak they are more than capable of maintaining.

It’s likely that Neil Lennon will now turn to the youngster for the remainder of the season. Celtic are playing catch up as they hope they still have time to close down rivals Rangers and take back the top spot in the Premiership.

Big responsibility for Hazard

Summer signing Barkas has had a disappointing debut season so far after struggling to cement himself as his new club’s first choice. Bain took over from the Greece international after he struggled with a back injury and he has rarely been seen since. But now, even his teammate has disappointed Lennon and he has been forced to call upon Hazard to step up.

Before his back-to-back starts, the Northern Ireland international had featured just one other time for the Celtic senior team. This was way back in 2017, in a cameo appearance against Partick Thistle in the league (via Transfermarkt). However, being just a teenager at the time, he clearly wasn’t viewed as a reliable option to integrate into the team.

His patience and hard work has paid off though and he could now be looking at becoming Celtic’s No.1 next season. With Lawwell acknowledging his work ethic and eagerly lining up a new deal for him, this could spell a very fruitful career for Hazard at Parkhead. It’s also a smart piece of business from the Englishman, who will be more than aware of other clubs noticing the goalkeeper’s progress.

Tying him down whilst he is still on the rise is essential for the Bhoys if they want to return next season and punish Rangers.

£16.5m blown: Big Sam must offload "stupid" West Brom star who’s been bleeding Lai dry - opinion

The future of Kieran Gibbs at West Brom seems rather unlikely with Sam Allardyce at the helm, according to emerging reports…

What’s the word?

Reliable Baggies reporter, Steve Madeley of The Athletic, claimed earlier this week that the 31-year-old’s recent pre-game withdrawal had angered the new Albion boss to the extent of potentially offloading him this month.

He wrote in a recent column:

“An absence of leadership has been evident and Albion may also be in the market for a left-back if they can secure an exit for Kieran Gibbs. The player’s withdrawal with a thigh strain during the warm-up for the 5-0 defeat by Leeds, exposing the untested Lee Peltier at short notice, is understood to have angered Allardyce.”

Tony Pulis flop

Gibbs has been at the club since 2017 when Tony Pulis secured the former Gunners full-back from Arsenal for £7m. He’s thought to be on around £55k-per-week, which makes him their second-highest earner.

Despite looking rather unfair on the face of it, perhaps Allardyce is actually onto something here.

The Premier League veteran was usurped by Conor Towsend before he picked up a lengthy injury and that’s rather damning as it was only three years ago that he was competing in League One.

It also speaks volumes that Gibbs ranks out as the worst player on WhoScored, being graded a 6.11. No player who has started three or more matches has managed a worse rating.

The ten-time England international even let Slaven Bilic down badly earlier this season when he was sent off against Everton for what the Croatian described as a “stupid” reaction.

He is simply not justifying that massive wage whatsoever.

That £7m signing has turned out to cost Albion a total just over £16.5m and overall, it’s hard to say that it has turned out to be a great move.

Gibbs has absolutely ransacked Guochuan Lai’s pockets, though the only thing on his side this month is the fact that Allardyce is short on options in the role and additions of a centre-back and a striker are more pressing needs.

Leeds must swoop for "insane" talent Dean Henderson in January transfer window

Leeds are currently in a tough situation as they use the international break to try and shake off their recent back-to-back heavy defeats in the Premier League. What started as the perfect returning season has quickly turned on its head and the Whites must rediscover their form in order to escape the pull of the relegation zone.

This is of course easier said than done, but the defence seems to be the biggest problem for Leeds, who have shipped the joint-highest amount of goals this season (17). Only West Brom have conceded the same amount and they are currently in the bottom three having lost five of their eight games played.

Leeds Live recently reported that bookmakers had tipped the Championship winners to sign Dean Henderson, who is searching for regular minutes amid a potential spot in the England team.

Should Leeds sign Dean Henderson?

Bookies make the Whites 11/1 to bring the Manchester United shot-stopper to Elland Road. After his impressive spell with Sheffield United, it’s no surprise that more clubs are eyeing up the 23-year-old’s services.

Although Henderson has featured in all of United’s cup fixtures so far, he is still waiting on an opportunity to challenge David de Gea in the Premier League. However, this an opportunity that may never come. Luckily, it seems that the rising talent is already aware of this after Gareth Southgate implored him to seek out regular game time.

According to 90min, the England boss has admitted that if Henderson was consistently getting out on the pitch at club level, he would already be his country’s No.1.

With this on his mind, the FA Cup winner will be exploring his options. Leeds will certainly have cropped up as an attractive destination after returning to the Premier League following a 16-year absence. Knowing they are struggling defensively at the moment and won’t want to face relegation, the goalkeeper and his agent could target the Whites as their preferred choice.

The 23-year-old recently signed a new deal with United worth a handsome £100,000 per week. Whilst Leeds may not be able to foot 100% of his wages, it seems there’s a bigger plan in place at Old Trafford for Henderson, so the Reds will help out on that front.

A loan deal would hugely pay off for both Henderson and Marcelo Bielsa’s side, as not only would he improve his England chances, but he can mentor Illan Meslier during his time in Yorkshire.

Former Sheffield United teammate Sander Berge heaped praise on the shot-stopper during his time at Bramall Lane, admitting that he’s an “insane” talent who left him “completely speechless” on the training pitch at times (via VG).

Ben Woodburn must strive to emulate Mason Mount while on loan

Liverpool’s academy has been mightily impressive when it comes to producing talent in recent years, with the likes of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Curtis Jones and Neco Williams all impressing to varying degrees for the Reds last season.

However, one man whose development hasn’t quite followed the upward trajectory many had hoped for is Ben Woodburn.

The youngster was tipped as the club’s next big thing after his debut goals for the Reds and the Wales national team sprung him to superstardom almost overnight.

Unfortunately, he hasn’t been able to build on that great start, with two underwhelming loan spells with Sheffield United and Oxford United hampering his progress in the last two seasons.

Woodburn is set for another temporary spell away from Anfield this season, but rather than heading down to one of England’s lower divisions for a third time, he may get a chance to strut his stuff in the Eredivisie with Sparta Rotterdam as Goal claim that they’re now favourites to land him.

While a move to Sparta Rotterdam for Woodburn seems a little strange on the surface, there is precedent to say that a spell in Holland can help a player prepare themselves for the rigorous challenges of English football.

Mason Mount had an incredibly successful loan spell at Vitesse during the 2017/18 season, netting 14 and assisting 9 in 32 appearances, and just two years later he was a regular starter for Chelsea, and a senior England international.

If Woodburn can impress in a similar way to Mount, his path to Jurgen Klopp’s starting XI may become a lot clearer, but he will have to put the work in to make sure this isn’t yet another opportunity spurned.

The 20-year-old hasn’t yet kicked on to become the star he was once touted as, but this could be a chance for him to seriously grow as a player.

Osvaldo admite ano ruim no Flu, mas espera dar alegrias em 2016

MatériaMais Notícias

Osvaldo chegou ao Fluminense cercado de expectativa, mas as lesões atrapalharam a vida do atacante no Fluminense nesta temporada. Confiante após o gol na partida contra o Avaí, o seu primeiro com a camisa tricolor, o camisa 17 espera que tudo mude em 2016, principalmente pelo fato de poder realizar uma pré-temporada.

– O ano para mim não rendeu o esperado. As lesões me atrapalharam, mas é passado. Não tive pré-temporada e entrei em um time formado. Na minha opinião não rendi nem 30% do que rendi por onde passei. Não posso desanimar. Temos uma pré-temporada e quero mostrar ainda que posso ser aquele Osvaldo que chegou à Seleção Brasileira. Não tive ainda a sequência que espero. Vou seguir trabalhando da melhor maneira e dar alegria ao torcedor do Fluminense – enfatizou.

Nas duas últimas rodadas do Campeonato Brasileiro, o Fluminense enfrentará o Internacional, neste sábado, no Maracanã, e o Figueirense, no Orlando Scarpelli, em Florianópolis. Para Osvaldo, duas boas partidas poderão ser o cartão de visitas para o próximo ano.

– Para mim, a última impressão é que fica. Por isso, precisamos terminar bem o ano. Tem os que estão em fim de contrato e querem dar o máximo. No futebol não de pode desanimar. Temos que defender com honra o Fluminense – encerrou.
