"You're disgusting": Corinthians legend defends Filipe Luís after sacking | OneFootball

Neto criticizes how Flamengo dismissed someone with Filipe Luís's resume

The dismissal of Filipe Luís from the position of coach at Flamengo moved even the rivals. The former player Neto, an idol of Corinthians, called the red-black management disgusting for having committed an injustice with the coach.

— How disgusting are you at Flamengo, aren't you? How can people not feel for the guy who was there leading the youth division, right? And then the guy comes, wins the Brazilian Championship, wins the Libertadores, a decent, professional young man. I don't know Filipe Luís, but he is professional, decent -, highlighted Neto, who added:

— How do I dismiss a professional with this resume, who had a good environment and treats everyone well? (…) They didn't let Filipe Luís stay for the game against Fluminense because if he wins against Fluminense, he wins the title. But no, they already had a new coach -, he stated during a Band program.

Who is to blame for Filipe Luís's dismissal?

For Neto, the departure of Filipe Luís shows that the president and management do not think about the club or the fans. Thus, the Corinthians idol analyzes how many other coaches went through the same process at the Most Beloved.

— So, there are 101 games, 63 wins, only 23 draws, and 15 losses. That's a 70% success rate. 183 goals… wow, that's a lot of goals, right? Impressive. 68 goals conceded and five titles. In 101 games, a young man who came up from the juniors, who took over a Flamengo and has the Copa do Brasil, Supercopa do Brasil, Carioca, Libertadores and Brazilian -, stated Neto.

What is Flamengo's next game?

With Leonardo Jardim lined up, the Red-Black faces Fluminense, starting at 6 PM (Brasília time), at Maracanã, for the final of the Campeonato Carioca, on Sunday (8). Thus, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of the classic through YouTube, website, and social media.
