Marcos, ídolo do Palmeiras, em podcast no YouTube (Reprodução)
Marcos considera que Vitor Roque está encarando uma pressão exclusiva no Brasil. Trazendo um recorte do passado, o ex-goleiro vê um cenário semelhante em relação ao caso de Gabriel Verón. Cobrado para fazer jus ao posto de principal talento da base do Palmeiras, o atacante teve bons momentos, mas jamais vingou da maneira esperada. Neste contexto, o status de maior reforço da história do futebol nacional será mencionado, de forma fixa, em cobranças para o camisa 9 assumir o posto de protagonista.
“Eu entendo o Vitor Roque. Ele tá com aquela pressão pela contratação que veio. Você fica com isso aí. Quando estava subindo um monte de moleques da base para o profissional, o pessoal falava muito do Verón. Falavam que iriam vingar um monte de gente e o Verón iria dar problema. Ele subiu com uma responsabilidade, e os outros não subiram.”, disse Marcos, em transmissão no canal Doze Zero Um.
“Para o Gabriel Menino e o Patrick de Paula foi mais tranquilo porque o craque cobrado era o Verón. Como o Vitor Roque veio contratado por uma fortuna, ele vai jogar com essa cobrança nas costas pelo valor da contratação.”, acrescentou.
Marcos elogia coletivo do Palmeiras
Apesar do destaque envolvendo Vitor Roque e Estêvão, Marcos acredita que o Palmeiras não tem um grande protagonista. Por conta disso, o coletivo da equipe Abel Ferreira, com todos os jogadores possuindo o mesmo nível de importância, é o maior trunfo na busca por títulos em 2025.
“O Palmeiras não tem um cara especial. Aquele que fez a diferença. A gente foi campeão com zagueiro fazendo gol… o forte do Palmeiras é um conjunto. Tem o Estêvão, mas o conjunto do Palmeiras é muito bom.”, afirmou.
Capacidade de Abel Ferreira
Alvo de críticas no início da temporada, Abel Ferreira também foi elogiado por Marcos. Confiando no trabalho do português, o ex-goleiro não quis entrar na onda de protestos, algo que ganhou ênfase através de mais uma grande vitória na Libertadores.
“É um dos maiores treinador da história do Palmeiras. Um tempo atrás, o pessoal estava pegando no pé porque o Abel passou por uma fase difícil. Eu até fiz um post falando que confiava no trabalho do Abel porque sabia que ele poderia mudar rumos, é o que ele está fazendo mais uma vez.”, externou.

Rafael Devers shoots down move to 1B after Triston Casas injury, lays into Red Sox front office
Rafael Devers entered the season under a cloud of controversy due to his disinterest in moving from third base to designated hitter. Now, he's balking at another move.The longtime third baseman has been a full-time designated hitter this season after the Boston Red Sox signed another All-Star at the position, Alex Bregman, over the offseason. However, the first base position is now wide open for Boston after Triston Casas' season-ending ruptured patellar tendon.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementSome thought Devers would be a natural solution given that third basemen frequently make an appearance on the first base depth charts, but the 28-year-old shot the idea down and then some on Thursday.Through an interpreter, he told reporters the front office had approached him about the move and that his answer was a firm "no," via Christopher Smith of MassLive:“They had the conversation with me,” Devers said […]
Texans’ Jayden Higgins makes history with fully guaranteed deal: What he’ll bring to Houston
The Houston Texans and rookie wide receiver Jayden Higgins made history Thursday by agreeing to a fully guaranteed contract, the first-ever for a second-round NFL draft pick, according to multiple reports.The four-year deal will pay Higgins just more than $11.7 million.Houston drafted the Iowa State star with the 34th pick after he caught 87 passes for 1,183 yards and nine touchdowns for the Cyclones last season.AdvertisementThe Texans went heavy on offense in the 2025 NFL Draft, as six of their nine picks went to that side of the ball. They even drafted Higgins’ college teammate Jaylin Noel, also a receiver, in the third round. Both pass catchers will play alongside another former Cyclones star, wideout Xavier Hutchinson.Houston will be relying on its young newcomers — and their ability to build rapport with quarterback C.J. Stroud — after losing Stefon Diggs […]
The Anaheim Ducks are eager to win again, but is hiring coach Joel Quenneville a good move?
ANAHEIM, Calif. — In an instant, Joel Quenneville became the most accomplished head coach the Anaheim Ducks have ever hired — and the one with the most baggage.The Ducks, in hiring the three-time Stanley Cup champion, whose stature may be forever tarnished by his role in a sexual assault scandal while he was the coach of the Chicago Blackhawks, let their mission be known: They’re out to win.AdvertisementThey’ve braced themselves for the blowback after the announcement on Thursday. For many, the idea of letting Quenneville back in the NHL is a non-starter. And the Ducks knew they would take a public relations hit for their choice when they easily could have avoided the fuss – if not outright scorn – by going in another direction. Multiple other candidates, including David Carle, Jay Woodcroft and Rick Tocchet, were interviewed.The thing is, […]
