The red-black coach completes his first 365 days in charge of Flamengo this Wednesday, the 23rd. As measured as usual, Ney Franco is very rational when talking about his achievement.

"It's an important milestone, especially when it comes to Brazilian football. But I think that for a coaching staff to show results, good work, and titles, it takes more time, three to four years," the coach commented.

According to Ney, despite being just at the beginning of his career, it is at its peak. Coach of the most prominent team in the country, the coach already considers himself capable of coaching any club in Brazil.

During his time at Mengão, he played 64 games, winning 32, drawing 12, and losing 20. The team scored 95 goals and conceded 84. They won the 2006 Copa do Brasil, the Taça Guanabara, and the Campeonato Carioca. Ney hopes his winning percentage will increase during the Brazilian season. That's what the entire red-and-black nation wants.
