The dismissal of coach Hernán Crespo from the command of São Paulo was apparently not expected by São Paulo fans. On social media, the fans criticized the decision and expressed surprise at the departure of the Argentine coach.

“What’s the point of firing a coach who was doing well, the team winning despite the crisis and the incompetence of this ridiculous club policy, we’re back to the same mess again, congratulations to the incompetents involved,” wrote a fan in response to the club's post.

“What madness was that? Are they going to bring in a top-tier coach? I highly doubt it. The guy rebuilt the team during the season amidst a crisis. CRAZY,” criticized another.

In addition to the criticism of the management following the decision to dismiss Crespo, fans also expressed surprise at the announcement and speculated names to take over the command: “Out of nowhere? Are they bringing Filipe Luís now?”

“Just like that? We [fans] don’t have a day of peace even without playing. You break me like this, São Paulo”, protested a fan.

The name of the former Flamengo coach, however, was not the only one that emerged among the requests of the tricolor fans. Besides him, Fernando Diniz, who has already been with São Paulo and recently left Vasco, was also targeted.

Next São Paulo Match

São Paulo will take the field again this Thursday, when they face Chapecoense in the fifth round of the Brazilian Championship. The match kicks off at 8 PM (Brasília time), at Canindé Stadium in São Paulo.

Situation in the Brazilian Championship

São Paulo is experiencing a good moment in the Brazilian Championship at the start of the season. In the first four rounds of the competition, the Tricolor has not lost, with three wins and one draw.

The team occupies the second position in the table, with ten points – only behind the leader Palmeiras, which has the same score but a greater goal difference.
