Muller é comentarista esportivo – Divulgação
Muller está convicto de que o Palmeiras tem time e elenco suficiente para conquistar todos os principais títulos da temporada. Sob o comando de Abel Ferreira, o Verdão lidera agora com certa folga o Brasileirão, é dono da melhor campanha na Libertadores e está em vantagem sobre o Ceará na Copa do Brasil.
Diferentemente dos anos anteriores, o ex-atacante entende que o treinador tem hoje à disposição um elenco farto de boas opções no banco de reservas. Mesmo quando alguns titulares estão de fora, outros conseguem ser protagonistas.
“Hoje, o Palmeiras não tem só o Flaco López, Vitor Roque, Paulinho, Estêvão… é um coletivo muito forte. Ontem foi o Murilo quem resolveu, o Maurício resolveu. Mesmo com a ausência de individualidades, o grupo se supera no conjunto”, disse Muller, no programa ‘Mesa Redonda’.
Satisfeita com Abel Ferreira, Leila Pereira já teria iniciado contatos para renovar o vínculo do treinador português. Nas últimas semanas, inclusive, havia um temor sobre um possível convite da seleção brasileira.
“O grande desafio da Leila Pereira é o Abel Ferreira. Se ela conseguir renovar o contrato dele, aí sim”, avisou Muller.
Casagrande aprova análise de Muller
Em sua coluna no UOL, Walter Casagrande tem dito constantemente que o Palmeiras é o time mais sólido do futebol brasileiro. Ao contrário do Flamengo, nenhuma equipe do Brasileirão conseguiu dominar o time paulista.
“O Campeonato Brasileiro vai se desenhando de uma forma muito favorável ao Palmeiras de Abel Ferreira, pela resistência e foco que seu time tem. Mudou metade dos jogadores de linha e o time ficou ainda mais forte, dinâmico e agressivo do que estava antes”, declarou Casão, em coluna publicada no UOL.
Agenda
Na quinta (22), o Palmeiras enfrenta o Ceará, às 19h30 (de Brasília), no Allianz Parque, pela segunda partida da terceira fase da Copa do Brasil. Depois de vencer o confronto de ida, no Castelão, o Verdão agora tem a vantagem do empate diante do Vozão.

<!--> For his first act as a NASCAR All-Star Race champion, Christopher Bell chose to praise the revitalized 78-year-old racetrack that delivered a memorable night of racing."Let’s go!"

Rams legend Aaron Donald says he doesn’t miss playing football
Getty Images Last season was our first without one of the most dominant defensive lineman we've seen in NFL history. Los Angeles Rams superstar Aaron Donald hung up the cleats last March after 10 seasons in which he played at a Hall of Fame level.Donald turns 34 years old this week, but could a potential return be in the cards since his Rams appear to be all-in for a Super Bowl in 2025? Does Donald even miss football? Nope. Apparently he's comfortable with his decision. "As far as playing football, I don't miss it," Donald said on the Pitt Panthers Insider Show on 93.7 The Fan, via Audacy.com. "I don't even have the passion or excitement to want to play football. I will always love football, but once you lose the passion, it was time to walk away."Donald did say that […]
Notre Dame vs. USC rivalry at risk: Why historic college football showdown must be preserved at all costs
Getty Images Notre Dame and USC are two of the greatest brands in the history of college football. Their rivalry stretches back nearly 100 years, since Knute Rockne's wife allegedly convinced her husband that a trip to Southern California every two years would be a nice perk. Since then, the schools have combined for 24 national championships and 15 Heisman Trophy winners. They've produced 92 matchups and some of the greatest games in college football history. But now, for no good reason, the game is reportedly at risk. Sports Illustrated reported on Monday that USC and Notre Dame are struggling to come to a long-term agreement to extend its rivalry series, which has been played yearly (sans 2020) since World War II. The two schools are only contracted to play through the 2026 season. "I think Southern Cal and Notre Dame should play every […]
Ranking Indy 500 drivers from 33 to 1: Can anyone unseat Josef Newgarden?
Bob Pockrass FOX Motorsports Insider <!--> The traditional 33-driver field for the Indianapolis 500 will have a rookie and a two-time winner on the front row for 200 laps on Sunday at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. That mix of youth and experience spreads throughout the entire field for the 109th running of the event.The cars are different this year. There's a hybrid engine that adds approximately 100 pounds of weight to the rear of the car. That will disturb the balance and will also put plenty of weight on the psyche of the drivers, as they reach speeds of more than 230 miles an hour.So you might want to consider the past history of the race with a grain of salt. And, yet, it seems this is a race that can be unpredictable no matter the familiarity with the car. Each […]
Urban Meyer describes ‘heartbreaking’ exit with Florida Gators, reflects on health, legacy
Getty Images Urban Meyer admits the way his tenure at Florida ended is painful. The legendary football coach won two national championships with the Gators in 2006 and 2008 before his resignation in 2010. At the time, Meyer cited health concerns as a driving factor behind his decision, but it is still a chapter of his career that carries emotional weight."The good thing is that I'm surrounded by a lot of Gators and Gator fans," Meyer said on Another Dooley Noted Podcast. "And the way Urban Meyer left Florida is something that I can't change. It's heartbreaking, but it's also my life — it is what it is. I look back now, I was not in good shape. I look back now, I had to do that to get myself healthy again because it was awful."In 2009, Meyer was hospitalized […]
