Instead of wandering around in the three OK, five pine trees of the City crisis day and night, it would be better to think about this circumstance. Wolverhampton appoints Vitor Pereira as their new coach. You've heard of him, of course. A loud, memorable name - like Vladimir Fedorov. Previous place of work - Al Shebab (KSA). Before that - Flamengo. Three months. Before that - Corinthians. Nine months.
This is the third Portuguese to be called up by the world's strongest league, the main recruiter of exceptional coaching competencies. There are two Germans, one Italian. This is really something to think about. How did it happen that a nation which 300 years ago abandoned the world stage and became the eternal western outskirts of Europe, a refuge for English pensioners and lonely European wanderers with a sad, fado-like look, suddenly declared itself in the art of intellectual management in the most popular world culture after cinema.
The 93rd human resource in the world-between Azerbaijan and Papua New Guinea. An important football nation, of course, but not Holland-not a single World Cup final. And today a football coach from Portugal sounds about like a Flemish artist in the 17th century. Victor Pereira, you say? We take it!

Well, what to say. As the classics said-the end is somewhat predictable. Though right till the very end I believed that, just a little bit everybody would turn up alive, the wounded come back, all the Ugartes and de Ligts would appear, and the bald ship would rush forward, ramming into everything that comes into its way. Well, it really feels like we should have parted ways at the peak, after the FA Cup final. Alas, rich and influential people sometimes also do lack determination. Yes, I want...

Fonseca, August 24: "We have an attitude problem, a desire to defend as a team. When the opponent passes our press, we have difficulty coming back, we are not compact. In training, the team is good, then you go to the matches and all this happens. That is not easy to explain. Fonseca, September 17: "We conceded two goals from set pieces, then we lost the confidence, and when a team loses its confidence, it does not do what it has been doing in training. After the second goal, we stopped playi...

You may say whatever you like, comrades, but I keep on believing Stuttgart is the best team in the world this season. Only in one aspect. This approach is most fully articulated in one line by the great English poet Alexander Pope: Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, taken out in the title of one whimsical and slightly overpraised film with Jim Carrey - Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Actually, I don't find any other merits in Stuttgart's play, if not this shine of the mind. In case...
