The most frequently asked question in Flamengo's last training session before the match against Grêmio Prudente, which will be held this Wednesday (September 15.09th) at 22 pm, is which team coach Silas will field. Maintaining his composure and confidence that the work is being done correctly, the Flamengo coach avoided answering directly, but promised to send the best team onto the field.
Silas believes that a winning streak can restore tranquility to the Flamengo squad, and this can bring more and more positive results for the current Brazilian champion.
"I can't confirm the team yet, but the time will come when I won't even need to confirm it because everyone will already know. What really matters is that the team is improving. And now we need a win to climb the table. It's difficult, as it is for all teams, but the results will come as the team evolves," said Silas, putting an end to speculation about a falling out between him and midfielder Petkovic.
"The incident with Pet was completely calm. Everyone here is focused on what's best for the club. Pet is an idol who deserves all the respect. When he saw Galhardo, he thought he wouldn't leave, and I understood. I'm sure he'll help us tomorrow (Wednesday), regardless of whether he starts playing or not," he explained.
Another player who earned praise from the coach was midfielder Renato. Rested for Flamengo's last match, the player is a key piece for Silas, whether on the bench or on the field.
"Renato has worked to improve his condition and is ready to help. Whether he will start playing or not, we will decide later," he analyzed.
Finally, Silas praised Kleberson's joy, the star of Flamengo's last game, with two goals. According to the coach, the player is very motivated and can be very useful to Flamengo.
"Kleberson is very happy. This is important for him and for the club. We have to take advantage of this moment," he concluded.
