The pressure increases after Dérbi, but the board continues to play with Tiago Nunes at Corinthians | corinthians

The pressure for his resignation is mounting. In social networks, in sports debates and among people who influence the football board. On Thursday night, after a 2-0 defeat against Palmeiras, the fans asked to leave at the door of Neo Química Arena.

President Andrés Sánchez says that the project will continue until he realizes that the technician has lost the group. Tiago says he will continue to search for results.

– I am a professional that I do not usually give up. I’m doing everything I can to earn everyone’s trust. I trust what the management said (about not changing coaches). But that does not mean that there can be no changes – said Tiago Nunes, Thursday night.

There are eight games played and only the thirteenth position (see leaderboard). So far, nine points have been added in 24 disputed, with 37.5%. There are only two wins in eight games. At home, Timão won one, drew two and lost the Derby relentlessly.

The market plays in Tiago’s favor: there is no shadowy name at the moment, as Tiago himself became Fábio Carille last season. Well valued by the board, Mano Menezes has just agreed with Bahía and is no longer the most logical option to replace him.

The November elections, however, can influence football.

New defeats and an unsustainable climate could end up playing against the candidacy of Duílio Monteiro Alves, the name of the situation. Even without him in the role of football director, sports results can influence elections.

With little time to train, Tiago Nunes has a great challenge in the game this Sunday. Against Fluminense, in Maracana, a mended defense will take to the field, without Fagner and Danilo Avelar, who were sent off. From the middle to the front, several fades, as no formation seems to fit.

Anyone who evaluates Tiago Nunes’ work for results alone has a lot of material to criticize. The problem is that those who prefer to evaluate a job from a performance perspective have it too. Few items stand out at this time.

At the press conference, the coach himself demanded a better offensive performance from the athletes, since only Otero managed to create good opportunities against Palmeiras.

– Opponents have generally managed to neutralize our attacking players, we need to have more individual quality to be able to create more imbalances and hurt the opponent.

After the game against Gripe, Timão receives Bahia at home on the 16th and will play two matches with intervals of one week for physical recovery and a lot of work: on the 23rd, in Recife, against Sport, and on the 30th, in Itaquera. , against Atlético-GO, in a delayed round.
