Midfielder Willians is back at Flamengo. After missing the team's match against Grêmio due to a suspension, he will start against Palmeiras this Saturday (24/09) at Engenhão. In a press conference after training this Friday (23/09), the player did not hide his happiness at being back with the team and showed great desire to leave the field with another victory.

Aware of Palmeiras' attacking quality and trying to improve his ball possession, the midfielder, who is the biggest ball thief in the Brazilian Championship, as was the case in 2009, Willians knows he has a big responsibility to help the team win again.

"I'm back now, I have to help the team get this victory and be alert to the high-quality players. I know I have to work, be more careful, and have vision to make better passes. That's what desire is all about. You want to make the pass, but you end up making mistakes," he said.

The player doesn't even want to consider any result other than a draw. Betting on the team's determination and greater chemistry, Willians calls for "heart on the tip of the boot" to beat Palmeiras.

"We can't think about a draw. We have to put our hearts into our boots and win. We have to win, have the will to get there. Our forwards are scoring again, there's more synergy. The balls are coming forward faster. We have to keep up the pace to win," he added.
