Part 6/7:
The major question surrounding Cruzeiro is whether the lofty expectations built by ambitious signings align with the team's current capacity to perform effectively. Notably, the optimism around players like Gabriel and Eduardo needs tempered expectations as they acclimatize to new roles and pressures.
Critics suggest the current strategy reflects more of a media-driven narrative rather than a solid footballing strategy. Both analysts and fans agree that the true potential of this ‘super Cruzeiro’ will only become apparent as the competitive season unfolds, particularly in the Brazilian championship, where teams are evaluated rigorously.
