Part 4/7:
Milly pointed out that Juninho’s arrival could potentially fill the gap left by star striker Gabigol. However, Juninho comes with less fanfare and hype, perhaps allowing him a less pressured start. While Gabigol's tenure at Flamengo included a myriad of controversies and an undeniable charisma, Milly suggested that Juninho might not trigger the same expectations.
Despite the positive statistics from the Azerbaijan league, Milly expressed caution about interpreting those numbers fully, given the variability in league competitiveness. The depth of scrutiny that comes from the Brazilian media could create a challenging environment should Juninho struggle initially, especially with Gabigol making a local transfer to Cruzeiro. Comparisons will certainly be drawn throughout the season.
