Fiel Fazendinha calls for Emily Lima to go, see statement | OneFootball

Some Corinthians fans have run out of patience with Emily Lima’s work and have started calling for the women’s team coach to leave. On social media, Fiel Fazendinha expressed dissatisfaction with the team’s current situation and demanded changes in the technical command.

The criticism increased after the 3-1 loss to Internacional last weekend. Part of the fan base believes the coach’s work has not been living up to expectations and has begun pressuring the board for a change in the coaching staff.

Check out the full statement published by Fiel Fazendinha below:

“Corinthians is going through an unprecedented off-field crisis, and we know these problems interfere with day-to-day life. The board, especially president Osmar Stabile, owes the fans many explanations. However, at this moment, we need to discuss what is happening on the field.

It is not hard to question some of coach Emily Lima’s decisions, especially when she chooses to keep on the field players who have not been performing well instead of replacing them with those who are clearly pushing for a spot in the starting lineup.

The players who used to be references in their positions seem unable to perform at their full potential. In addition, the team shows little tactical organization and, in many moments, the only apparent alternative seems to be the famous “long ball” into the box.

If there used to be clear defensive solidity, that is no longer the reality today. Arthur Elias had 24 losses in 324 matches, Lucas Piccinato had 10 losses in 101 matches, while the new project has a 67% success rate, totaling seven losses in 25 matches played over the last six months.

The situation becomes even more worrying when we are unable to beat teams of the same level, let alone opponents that, in theory, we should overcome with relative ease.

The truth is that the team has worsened considerably since the arrival of the coach and her staff. For the knockout stage, we will face Cruzeiro again, and based on the football shown, we have no expectation of advancing comfortably.

We are talking about the current Brasileirão and Libertadores champions. Even so, today, Corinthians, which used to be considered the team to beat, no longer commands the same respect and, definitely, no longer scares anyone.

If Corinthians aims for titles this season, they will not be won by keeping those in charge of the team. Therefore, we are Emily Lima out.”

Next match
