A eliminação precoce do São Paulo no Campeonato Paulista gerou uma enxurrada de críticas ao técnico Fernando Diniz, mas também a alguns atletas do elenco. Um deles, Alexandre Pato.

Um dos jogadores mais badalados do elenco tricolor, o atacante marcou apenas três gols em 11 jogos. O camisa 7 passou em branco em nove partidas da competição, mesmo sendo o segundo maior finalizador do campeonato, com 29 conclusões. Apenas Pablo, seu companheiro de ataque, arriscou mais vezes: 39, segundo dados do Sofascore. O centroavante, no entanto, estufou as redes o dobro de vezes.

Pato teve uma das taxas de conversão de chances em gols mais baixas da disputa. Das oportunidades que teve, apenas 10,3% terminaram no fundo das redes. Entre os principais finalizadores, apenas Luan, do Corinthians, com 9,5%, e Vitor Bueno, seu companheiro de Morumbi, com 4,1%, tiveram um rendimento inferior.

Com tantas oportunidades desperdiçadas, o jogador de 30 anos liderou o ranking de grandes chances perdidas. De acordo com dados do Sofascore, Pato perdeu sete lances claros ao longo do Paulista, mesma marca de Luiz Adriano, do Palmeiras, Boselli, do Corinthians, e Ytalo, do Red Bull Bragantino. Todos estes, porém, com aproveitamentos superiores.

Na derrota por 2 a 0 para o Internacional, nesta quinta-feira (13), pela segunda rodada do Campeonato Brasileiro, no Beira Rio, o Santos abusou de perder passes e entregar facilmente a posse de bola ao adversário.

Esses erros foram notórios principalmente no primeiro tempo, mas foi no segundo, e no melhor momento santista no jogo, nos 10 minutos iniciais, que comprometeram diretamente o resultado.

Na primeira etapa, o Avinegro Praiano chegou a ter apenas 64% de acerto nos passes, indo para o vestiário com 70% – e terminando o jogo com 80. No volta para o segundo tempo, Cuca promoveu a entrada de Jobson e Tailson, no lugar de Carlos Sánchez e Diego Pituca respectivamente. Com o primeiro, o time ganharia qualidade na saída de bola defensiva, já com o segundo aproximação à área. E isso vinha acontecendo, até Felipe Jonatan “voltar ao primeiro tempo” e ceder uma bola “ganha” ao Colorado. Aos 11 minutos do segundo tempo, o lateral-esquerdo tentou proteger uma bola que sairia pela linha de fundo, mas Thiago Galhardo conseguiu tocar para trás, Saravia cruzou de primeira e Guerrero marcou de cabeça.

O gol sofrido mexeu com o psicológico dos santistas, que já vêm abalado há tempos. Além de um extracampo conturbado e pendências financeiras, o time tem sentido as inferioridades, tanto numérica, quando teve jogadores expulsos em quatro partidas consecutivas, sofrendo viradas em três delas, ainda com Jesualdo, quanto no marcador.

Melhorar é preciso

No “futebol atual”, qualidade e velocidade são fundamentais para que o time expresse a sua ofensividade, ao encontrar os espaços em relação aos adversários, e assim se colocar em melhor condição de gols. Com isso, não importa as mudanças táticas que Alexi Stival faça na sua equipe, se ela persistir em cometer “erros primários”, os resultados sempre serão comprometidos.

O remédio para essa deficiência do time em campo está no dia a dia, tão escasso no futebol brasileiro, e que nessa temporada ficou ainda pior, com a paralisação do futebol durante três meses, por conta da pandemia do novo coronavírus. O treinador terá que dedicar parte dos seus trabalhos para corrigir os “vacilos” que o time santista dá.

Luz no fim do túnel

Ainda que o time siga cometendo “erros bobos”, já se vê no trabalho de Cuca uma inquietação, diferentemente da que era vista com Jesualdo Ferreira.

Contra o Inter, além de escalar o time de acordo com o adversário, algo que era comumente feito por Sampaoli, em 2019, Cuca retomou ao esquema tradicional logo aos 15 minutos, quando viu que a sua ideia não tinha dado certo.

Persistindo uma apresentação muito ruim no primeiro tempo, mexeu nas peças para a segunda etapa, se utilizando de jogadores de características diferentes a fim de concentrar as suas jogadas cada vez menos no campo defensivo, no qual foi encurralado nos 45 minutos iniciais.

Ainda que no piscar de um vaga-lume, há uma visível luz no início do túnel. Em um trilhar de 38 rodadas, é nítido que as pretensões do Santos no Brasileirão de 2020 são simplórias, mas o futebol mostra sinais de mudanças, que com o tempo pode significar evolução.

Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou has reportedly decided to snub any approach from Brighton & Hove Albion.

The Lowdown: Brighton rumours

There has been speculation regarding Postecoglou’s future at Parkhead after Graham Potter left Brighton for Chelsea last week. The Seagulls are now on the hunt for a new manager, with Postecoglou thought to be a ‘key target’.

However, it looks as if the Australian has made a call on his immediate future that will hopefully end speculation ahead of the Hoops’ Champions League clash with Shakhtar Donetsk tomorrow evening.

The Latest: Postecoglou ‘not interested’

The Scottish Sun relayed an update from The Sunday Telegraph in the last 48 hours regarding Postecoglou and the possibility of a Brighton move.

They claimed that the Hoops boss is ‘not interested’ in the vacancy on the south coast and has decided he will snub any approach.

The Verdict: Brilliant news

Several Celtic supporters may have been slightly worried when they heard the news linking Brighton with a move for Postecoglou, however, knowing he is not keen on a move south will be welcome news for everyone associated with Celtic.

The 57-year-old has transformed the Hoops over the last 12 months and appears to only have just got started at Parkhead, so hopefully, Brighton won’t try their luck with a formal approach and Celtic officials may potentially want to discuss a new long-term deal with Postecoglou following the recent speculation.

Liverpool journalist James Pearce has shared his verdict on the ‘dramatic’ late scenes at Anfield following the club’s 2-1 victory over Ajax on Tuesday night.

The Lowdown: Liverpool’s late winner

The Reds kicked off their Champions League campaign with a disappointing 4-1 defeat at the hands of Napoli last week, but came back fighting to put on an impressive display in their second outing.

Jurgen Klopp’s side took the lead through Mohamed Salah early on, before Mohammed Kudus found the equaliser for the visitors just ten minutes later.

However, it was Joel Matip who stole the show, netting a winner for the Premier League giants in the final minute of normal time to get their first three European points on the board.

The Latest: Pearce reacts

Taking to Twitter, Pearce was full of praise for Matip and the rest of the Liverpool squad for the determination shown to go on and win the game.

He believes Tuesday night could be the catalyst the Reds ‘desperately needed’:

“Matip the hero as his late header secures a dramatic Champions League victory at Anfield. The boost Liverpool’s season desperately needed going into the international break. They dug deep after Kudus had cancelled out Salah’s opener.”

The Verdict: Confidence lift

Liverpool have had a hugely underwhelming start to the new season in the top flight, picking up just nine points from a possible 18, and their lack of fluidity and confidence was evident against Napoli.

Victory over the Dutch giants should indeed give them a boost moving forward as Klopp prepares his team to face their last group opponents in Rangers, with an extended break coming their way due to the postponement of the Chelsea fixture.

The boss will be hoping that this regained form can be transitioned into the Premier League if he wants to give his side a serious chance at competing on all fronts throughout the remainder of the campaign.

Journalist Simon Phillips says that Everton cannot field Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Neal Maupay together as Frank Lampard does not play a two-striker formation.

The Lowdown: Calvert-Lewin return?

The big question on every Toffees supporter’s lips is whether the England marksman will make a return to the starting line-up in the Premier League clash at home to West Ham United this afternoon.

Speaking to the media in his pre-game press conference ahead of today’s match, Lampard revealed that the striker is ‘close‘ to returning from injury, and the 44-year-old is even contemplating whether to start him against the Hammers, having not featured at Goodison Park since May.

The Latest: No two-up-top

Speaking to GiveMeSport, Phillips has claimed that Lampard now has a ‘big issue’ with both Calvert-Lewin and Maupay fighting it out for one place up top, as he does not see the Everton manager changing his formation to accommodate both strikers.

He stated: “That’s the big issue that he’s [Lampard’s] going to have. It’s a good problem to have, but at the moment, in the setup that he plays, he only uses one centre forward.

“Both of these guys are only really going to be comfortable playing as a centre forward rather than a wide striker. Unless he is going to change formation and use two up top, which is not going to happen, then it looks likely that both these guys are going to have to battle it out for one position.”

The Verdict: Time to adapt

Even though Lampard is entitled to stick to his philosophy, he must also be able to adapt when needed, and that includes potentially switching to a two-striker formation to accommodate both Calvert-Lewin and Maupay.

[web_stories_embed url=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/everton-news-7/” title=”Everton news!” poster=”” width=”360″ height=”600″ align=”none”]

Everton are the top-flight’s second-lowest scorers at the moment with just four goals in their opening six matches, and with no wins under their belt either, it may be time for the 44-year-old to change things up.

Both Maupay have shown that they are capable of scoring goals in the Premier League, so it may be time to test out how they play together.

Celtic have now ended their 2021/22 season as Premiership champions after securing a 6-0 victory over Motherwell in their final match of the campaign on Saturday afternoon.

Now that the season has come to an end, the Hoops can turn their attention to the upcoming summer transfer window and getting their squad ready to take on the 2022/23 campaign.

With that in mind, it seems as though a behind-the-scenes development has emerged regarding one potential transfer deal with which the Bhoys have been mentioned recently.

What’s the news?

According to a recent report from Il Romanista (via Roma Press), Serie A giants AS Roma have reportedly agreed a deal with Bodo/Glimt winger Ola Solbakken for a potential summer transfer. This comes after the Parkhead club were linked with a move for the attacker last month.

The 23-year-old joined Bodo/Glimt in January 2020 from fellow Norwegian club Ranheim IL. Since then, the winger has gone on to make 72 appearances for his current employers, scoring 17 goals and providing 18 assists along the way.

This season has seen the £1.8m-rated talent play in 19 matches across all competitions, finding the net eight times and delivering five assists for his team-mates. He has played on both the left and right wings, highlighting his versatility in attack.

Bad news for Postecoglou

Taking into account how Solbakken scored three goals in as many Europa Conference League games against Jose Mourinho’s side, along with one goal against Celtic in the same tournament this season, it’s easy to see why the winger is a man in demand this summer.

This also shows why an attacking team like Celtic, who have scored 92 goals in their recent Premiership campaign, would be looking at adding a prolific player like Solbakken to their ranks.

However, now that it has been reported that the Norwegian has apparently made an agreement with Roma for a potential summer move, this will be a big blow for the Hoops and come as bad news for Ange Postecoglou.

Having been mentioned with a move for the Bodo/Glimt star as a potential backup option for the Bhoys if they aren’t able to sign Jota on a permanent deal, this update could either ramp up the club’s need to sign the Portuguese gem or make then move on to another potential target they can look at bringing to Glasgow.

Former Scotland striker Frank McAevnnie has made a claim involving Leeds United manager Jesse Marsch’s future beyond the end of the current campaign. 

The lowdown: A tough act to follow

Appointed in February following the departure of Elland Road favourite Marcelo Bielsa, the American was always swimming against the tide somewhat in Yorkshire.

The 48-year-old has taken charge of 11 matches since arriving at the club, picking up three wins and an average points per game ratio of 1.09, better than his predecessor’s 0.88 during the 2021/22 season.

[web_stories_embed url=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/latest-leeds-united-updates-3/” title=”Latest Leeds United updates!” poster=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/cropped-2022-03-10T184055Z_1834933207_UP1EI3A1FW561_RTRMADP_3_SOCCER-ENGLAND-LEE-AVA-REPORT-1-scaled-1.jpg” width=”360″ height=”600″ align=”none”]

Despite the slight upturn in fortunes since his arrival, Marsch is still under extreme pressure as Leeds stare down the barrel of relegation, with just one point separating the Whites and 18th-placed Burnley.

The latest: Writing on the wall?

Speaking to Football Insider, former West Ham United and Celtic striker McAvennie claimed that Marsch won’t be at the club next term.

The 62-year-old said: “It’s not looking good, is it? Burnley and Everton look like they have turned a corner and Leeds are getting worse.

“They are pretty much going down in my opinion. The manager has done absolutely nothing. The whole thing about him coming in was that he was meant to stop Leeds conceding loads of goals, that hasn’t happened.

“I don’t think it’s worked out for him and it seems like the fans have turned on him. I don’t expect he will be there next season either way, it hasn’t worked.”

The verdict: Stay of execution needed

Having been handed a late lifeline by Pascal Struijk’s last-gasp equaliser against Brighton over the weekend, the Whites’ survival hopes have been lifted heading into the final week of a testing campaign.

However, regardless of whether or not Leeds preserve their top-flight status, Marsch will surely be granted the opportunity to oversee a rebuild in the summer.

Both Bielsa and the former RB Leipzig boss have had to cope with squads decimated by injuries to key players and more recently suspensions, making the job almost impossible with such a small pool of Premier League-ready players available.

Whilst it would be a bitter pill to swallow should Leeds make an untimely return to the Championship, Marsch wouldn’t wholly be to blame and therefore would be deserving of the chance to bring the Whites straight back, and he certainly must stay in situ should the drop be avoided.

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is now ‘ready to pursue’ an agreement as he eyes a ‘sensational’ new transfer target, according to reports.

The Lowdown: Guardiola set for overhaul?

Erling Haaland’s summer signing from Borussia Dortmund ahead of City’s next Premier League campaign appears to be the tip of the iceberg going by recent claims.

[web_stories_embed url=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/man-city-latest-developments-3/” title=”Man City latest developments!” poster=”” width=”360″ height=”600″ align=”none”]

Guardiola is believed to be on the hunt for more new additions as the English champions ahead of the 2022/2023 season, including an heir to the departing Fernandinho and a possible new left-back.

Despite being in the midst of a fierce title battle with rivals Liverpool, with a crucial last remaining matchday set to determine the victor, Eastlands officials have allegedly started their transfer work behind-the-scenes.

The Daily Mail and journalist Dominic King, sharing some news, now have an interesting City development as they eye a new target in Brighton defender Marc Cucurella.

The Latest: King makes Cucurella claim…

As per The Mail reporter, taking to Twitter, the Sky Blues and Guardiola are ‘ready to pursue a £30m deal’ for the Seagulls star as they seek to solve their left-back issue.

Despite the phenomenal form of Joao Cancelo, who can operate on that flank, his natural position is on the right and City’s boss allegedly wants a natural left-footer on that side for ‘balance’ – as written in the report.

The Verdict: Priority?

As well as Cancelo, Guardiola has a brilliant makeshift option in Oleksandr Zinchenko at his disposal who has proven reliable and an underrated member of the team over these last few campaigns.

His regrettable most recent display away to West Ham aside, the Ukraine international is often a more-than capable deputy when called upon and we believe signing a left-back is more of a problem for the future.

That being said, Cucurella may well be one to monitor over the next couple of seasons.

The Spaniard, still just 23-years-old, has impressed in England since joining Brighton from Getafe last summer and no full-back has won possession more times over 21/22.

Called a ‘sensational player’ by members of the media (Josh Bunting, Islington Gazette), pundit Paddy Kenny was also in awe of how Cucurella ‘tore’ City’s arch rivals Man United ‘apart’ in a 4-0 victory recently (Football Insider).

The defender notched a goal in that game against the Red Devils and proved menacing, and if he were to do the same against them in a Sky Blue jersey, there is little doubting Cucurella would soon become a fan favourite.

After narrowly losing out on the Premier League title to Manchester City at the weekend, Liverpool will go back to the drawing board after next weekend’s Champions League battle vs Real Madrid.

Klopp’s side have hardly put a foot wrong this season, but if we’re critical, they lack quality midfield depth – a flaw that has been highlighted by Thiago’s injury against Wolves.

As such, the latest report will come as a boost to the Anfield faithful.

What’s the word?

As per the Liverpool Echo’s Ian Doyle, who clarified more on the Reds’ transfer targets via a Q&A, Klopp’s side are keen on signing Borussia Dortmund’s Jude Bellingham with the 18-year-old said to be “a player that they really like.”

[snack-amp-story url=”https://www.footballfancast.com/web-stories/read-the-latest-liverpool-news-transfer-rumours-gossip-salah-gnabry-isak-romano” title= “Read the latest Liverpool news!”]

Whilst Doyle believes that Liverpool will not make a move until next year, due to BVB’s reluctance to lose another key player after City’s capture of Erling Haaland, it still makes for a positive admission.

A generational Talent

With the domino effect playing a big part in football over the last few years, you cannot rule out a move for Bellingham – despite Haaland’s recent departure.

Dortmund are a forward-thinking club that seemingly have ready-made targets lined up if their big players are to leave. The most recent example of this is Dortmund’s capture of Karim Adeyemi in place of the Norwegian wonderkid.

At 18-years-of-age, Bellingham has asserted himself as “another generational talent” in the eyes of YouTube personality and radio host Mark Goldbridge, and has put up some numbers that evidence the hype that surrounds him.

With an average of 3.16 shot-creating actions, 19.58 touches in the attacking third and 10.84 passes under pressure, Bellingham’s poise in an attacking sense has developed astonishingly over the last year – with his defensive acumen already noted, with an average of 5.78 pressures in the attacking third more than good enough to fit into a Klopp system.

Bellingham has gone from a total of 14 assists in all competitions this season for Dortmund.

Liverpool would be the ideal destination for the youngster, so with news of the Reds’ interest, it bodes well for both parties, particularly Klopp who would love to have the £100m talent in his squad.
