Opinion – PVC: Sylvinho was canceled, before being fired from Corinthians

Sylvinho was on the wall and nobody will defend the work with 48% of success and less than one goal scored per match, on average – there were 42 in 43 games. On the other hand, it is unfortunate to see how the country vibrates with the misfortune of others.

The announcement of the dismissal provoked a honk in Itaquera and a party in the subway cars.

There are dark aliens in Parque São Jorge, where the political environment has never endorsed Duilio Monteiro Alves and Roberto de Andrade’s decision to hire and keep Sylvinho. In opposition to the idea of ​​signing him, in May, there was an invitation to Diego Aguirre. refused.

Then, a long negotiation with Renato Gaúcho. I didn’t want to either. With no alternative, the councilors accepted Sylvinho.

Perhaps the only similar pressure at Corinthians came from José Teixeira, a physical trainer who became champion coach of the 1978 São Paulo first round and, later, defenestrated, with the right to the cover of Placar magazine, with an index finger pointing the way to the street and the title: “Out, Teixeira!”

From pamphlet journalism to corporatism, Sylvinho was also criticized for having responded to a colleague stating that his analysis was poor. Apart from being able to be more delicate in the answer, he has as much right to judge the flat analyst as the commentator has to say that his game is a void of ideas.

It must be said, from repeating this expression so much, we, chroniclers, also seem to lack ideas.

The players, leaders of the group like Willian and Renato Augusto, believed in the quality of Sylvinho’s work. Spilled milk.

The question is not whether Sylvinho is polite, starched or rude. The crowd no longer wanted him as a coach, to the point of shouting “if Sylvinho doesn’t fall, the stick will break.” The crowd fired him. Duilio Monteiro Alves fought, until the last defeat, to keep it.

Failed.

Corinthians admits that there was a conversation with Jorge Jesus in January. There was no proposal, no contract, nor did they talk about the project for the club. The Portuguese coach showed only willingness to talk. In Parque São Jorge, the information is that Jesus sought Corinthians, not the other way around.

Today, it seems mandatory for Corinthians to ask if the Portuguese wants to return to Brazil. The likely answer will be, “No, thanks.”

Then you will fall into the usual whirlwind. Corinthians was, for ten years, the club with the fewest coach changes. But few people support themselves. Mano Menezes, Tite and Fábio Carille were the only ones to have a full year at Parque São Jorge, since falling to Série B.

This may have to do with political forces. The tentacles spread through the alleys and reach the stands and social networks. This created a rejection that was difficult to explain about Sylvinho. The coach was canceled, before being fired.

On the same day that the CBF annulled the ban on the second dismissal in the Brazilian. The rule, more dribbled than Garrincha’s markers, resulted in 16% fewer coach changes. There were 28 changes in 2021. Do you know how many there were in England this season? Eight.

Can you understand why the game is more collective in Europe than in Brazil?

As Jesualdo Ferreira says, fired by Santos after just fifteen games, the structures of Brazilian football are accommodated. When you realize that the coach is going to fall, the player gets used to the idea, the press feeds and the manager thinks about it.

Teams are always finishing and starting new experiences. Running after the tail.
