Dismissal or one more chance? Behind the scenes of the pressure on Luxembourg in Palmeiras | palms

The patience with football presented by the team was exhausted among some wings of the club; However, the work continues to be positively analyzed by the board and important people of Palmeirense politics.

The internal discourse calls for “calm” after the two consecutive defeats of the season. Although there is pressure on President Mauricio Galiotte, tempered by the rector’s public position organized against the work of Vanderlei Luxembourg, the convictions about the coach and the committee are supported by speeches.

Although Galiotte received charges for the change of command, important names in Palmeirense politics remain with the president on the Luxembourg issue. Sunday was free for the cast and crew.

There is an opinion among important people of the club and close to Galiotte that the problems at the football level that arise are not limited to the current coach. The “playing bad” is something that happened with other coaches in the recent past, within this analysis.

Luxa’s evaluation has another point to consider. The two defeats occurred just when Palmeiras lost four fundamental pieces within the game scheme. Against Botafogo and São Paulo, the alviverde team did not have Weverton, Gustavo Gómez, Matías Viña and Gabriel Menino, all called up to the South American Qualifying matches.

However, the pressure may become untenable this week. After resting on Sunday, Palmeiras returns to the field on Wednesday to face Coritiba, again at Allianz Parque, for the 16th round of the Brazilian Championship.

Luxa will hardly have the four names of the qualifying rounds, since on Tuesday there is a round for the South American teams, but the rival only plays the obligation of victory for Palmeiras and the coach. Coritiba is in the relegation zone and has only 13 points so far in the Brasileirão.

Last Sunday, still in a climate of discontent with Luxembourg, the Palmeiras fans made #HeinzenoPalmeiras among the highlights of the day. Gabriel Heinze, former Argentine defender and coach with a short career in the neighboring country, has already directed Godoy Cruz, Argentinos Juniors and recently Vélez Sarsfield, from where he resigned in March.
