At a press conference after a 1-0 win over Goias, Vitor Pereira, the Portuguese coach who commands Corinthians, did not hide his anger at the criticism he received, especially for making changes from game to game. , and change teams or, using Brazilian terminology, rotate.

“What I liked was that they didn’t play with me and my work. But let’s look at this team that everyone idealizes to play every game: William dropped out and was expelled because he needed to solve muscle discomfort, Joe dropped out, Renato left today due to muscle problems, and we took care of about not making it any worse than what I already have in my hands at the moment. Fagner was injured in 11 away games. Today Gil was injured because he had to play a series of games without a break. Joao Victor is injured. In any case, whoever is talking about searching for a command type must be kidding me, they can’t because they don’t have eyes in their face and can’t see what’s going on. If we didn’t have children, Corinthians would fight for downgrade [permanência]but people don’t want to know the truth. I hear a conversation there pa, pa, pa, pa, pa… I play with the team like three games in a row and I have injuries. I’m down to earth, I love the truth. How satisfied should I be if I have a three-game game and almost no players. I play two or three games with the same player and he gets injured. We must be intellectually honest. Then the fans are deceived and come with demands they cannot have, period,” said Vitor Pereira, clearly worried about the problems of the Brazilian press, again regarding the rotation of the squad.

“I’m a little tired of hearing things that make absolutely no sense. If we didn’t casterif we didn’t have kids ready to join in, I’d like one of these experts to come over here, sit down in this place and build a team of heavy players, I don’t even know what you usually say. Instead of assessing what is being done, there is talk that he never defines the team. Children play, make mistakes, but try to help. Like a team? Do you think I want to be here, move, move and move, team? I am a stabilization coach. Who will play forward in the next game? Roger took the third yellow. Giovane or Felipe will play, another child, here he is, ”added the Portuguese coach.

Asked about a possible other choice for the attacking trio, Vitor Pereira stated: “These are tactical questions that took me all night to explain, explaining why I play this way and not otherwise … Some more draws, how do I do it? Playing with all the attacking trump cards, besides the fact that we can unbalance the team, we want to continue to play in their midfield and we can’t, as we saw today.”

Vitor Pereira also warned: “The calendar is the way it is, the way we have it, and in order to have a competitive team in every game, I needed to have a much more extensive squad. The weapons are different from other clubs and we can’t compare the incomparable with other opponents who have something we don’t have. I did everything I could and should not. The club did everything they could, more was not required. Reality hits us in the face with the truth. I want a left winger but I don’t have one. I have to install Python. This is not to be here with blue, blue, bluedeceiving people and fans.”

When asked if he gave the club’s management a list with names to strengthen the ninth position, the coach replied: “The club knows very well that we have some problems. We already had many other decisions, we started the championship with even more decisions. look at list [plantel] from which we started and the current one. The club will do its best. As for lists, I’m not one of those who distributes lists. This is the internal affairs of the club. We’re biting the league leaders with all the restrictions we have, so don’t come to me with demands that don’t belong.”
