Five goals for Artur Jorge in the first full week of training with Botafogo | com.botafogo

Hey Botafogo He is enjoying his honeymoon with the fans since coach Artur Jorge took charge of the team on April 6. There were 11 matches in 42 days at the start of the era, with seven wins, one draw and three defeats..

The marathon of an average of one match every three days takes a break this weekend with the Brazilian Championship round postponed due to flooding in Rio de Grande do Sul.

This will be Jorge’s first full week of training at the club since making his debut, on April 11 against LDU. In the next ten days, there will only be the match against Vitoria in the Brazilian Cup. Hey ge List five goals for the coach in this less exciting season:

Planning with the weekend makes it clear that the club’s priority is to reduce the burden on the bodies of the athletes, who have come from a heavy set of matches, even with little travel.

Having everyone in full physical condition will help provide the necessary strength when matches return and also in the new tough sequence that lies ahead.

Spending fewer matches can also help some injured players recover. Eduardo has already returned to action, although he did not start as a starter.

Tequinho Soares is already active on the pitch and is close to making his return, as is left-back Marcell, who is already going through a physical transition and should soon be available to the coaching staff.

The controversy with Hernandez and Romero was resolved

The punishment imposed on Oscar Romero and Diego Hernandez last week, who led to the focus of women at the club after the match against Fortaleza, is an issue that has been resolved internally.

Romero was gaining space in the black and white team and could even start as a starter in the match against Universitario.

During the sequence of matches on Wednesday and Sunday, Artur Jorge had only a few opportunities to test the team in training. Most activities focus on rejuvenating the athletes before the next match.

With time to train, the Portuguese can look for new formations and alternatives, especially in attack, which still suffers from important absences.

Once he arrived at Botafogo, Artur Jorge prioritized bringing in the most experienced players in the squad. Some youngsters, like Jarlin and Kawi, before being dropped, came back to play at the under-20 level to stay active.

Little by little, these athletes reappear on the roster and become an option, especially with injuries within the team. Jarlin got his first chance with the Portuguese in the victory over Universitario, in which he played the final minutes.

With the absences in attack, other rising position names in the Under-20s, such as Lucas Vargas and Fabiano, could also be included in the pool of substitutes.
