After Palmeiras’ victory over Ituano, Abel Ferreira met journalists at Arena Barueri. The press conference opened with a question to the Portuguese coach about the formation used in the match. “We have to look at our players, who are fitter. My job is to choose the most suitable players for that match, today I chose those, in the next match I will be able to choose others. The midfield is an area where we must have the best competition. OR Hannibal He played well, then he had a hamstring problem, he still has it because of the pitch at Allianz Parque and there was another problem that you don’t know, but he’s there to help us. OR Fabinho also came out well, the Gabriele Menino Also. OR Ze Rafael in a slightly different position than he was used to, Rivers in good dynamics, Vega a little tired today. Midfield is an area where we are well served and have great options.”
Then he was asked about the players who play for that team in the squad, how the highlights were mentioned Mikewho didn’t play tonight and Marcos Rocha: “OR Mike unfortunately he is injured and will be out for a while, I don’t know how long, I hope not long. When we play with three, both in defense and in the centre, also due to the space occupied by these players, the game has greater breadth and breadth. OR Rock He is an intelligent and experienced player, which is why he is able to isolate a player with a simple pass, these are the player’s decisions, the coach has no interference in this, the coach must set up the team tactically.”
Abel became angry when asked if the state tournaments were just “to knock over coaches and for the laboratory”: “I don’t see the state championship like that, as a laboratory or a competition to knock over coaches, it’s a competition in the Brazilian calendar, a well-organized competition, each one increasingly with a culture of listening to coaches, players and managers. It is the third or fourth year that I compete in Sao Paulo, I have a personal goal to be the best coach I’ve ever beenI think the organization is better, there are just more games, but It is well organised, with good players, young players, good coaches, players who give their all as we saw today their players go to the limit. I prepare my players for this because we have no games to play and we will do everything we can to win this title.”

When asked about Vasco’s alleged interest in Bruno Lopezhe showed that he doesn’t want to get rid of the player: “It’s very difficult to sign players, I can’t afford to let go of players like Breno López, a player we like, we need players to help us, whether they come in or be a starter, we have to remember that in the final phase of the championship in which we were champions, he played. I have no information on this information you brought, but he is happy here, he is happy to be part of this group of champions and we are happy to be able to count on him.”
When asked about the situation on the pitch at Arena Barueri, Abel avoided the clearest criticism: “I won’t get angry about things that don’t depend on me. We play wherever we go, be it on the ground, on sand, on concrete, on wood. We will still compete, wherever it is. You know my opinion on this. It’s not worth spending the whole interview talking about this, things will change at their own pace, not at the pace I want. The only thing I want is for us to have the best possible conditions, for the Palmeiras players to have a pitch that corresponds to what they ask for, just as they ask for titles, quality of play, intensity from us.. I am a coach, not a gardener, I say that where my team plays, my opponents will also play.”
When asked about blue paperwhich will be tested in Europe and which once applied will take a player off the pitch for ten minutes, declared: “I am in favor of all the innovations that football brings with it, I learned from my wife that you can’t always do the same things , I have to innovate, do different things. I am in favor of inventing, trying, making mistakes, faced with the challenges, if FIFA or whoever decided sees it as an improvement, I can’t say no. For example, people talk about the five substitutions, when I started in 2011, doing the “Young Champions” they could already use five substitutions, and in my opinion I think the five substitutions are spectacular. Here in Brazil it is even more so, because we manage to manage the players. If it’s for everyone’s good, for the good of football it’s also for my good and I agree, we have to try first.“
