Part 4/6:
Differing Opinions on the Squad's Strength
As the conversation shifted towards the depth and capabilities of Palmeiras' squad, questions arose regarding whether the team needs reinforcements amidst perceived pressure from fans and analysts alike. Some believe the current squad is sufficient but recognize that reinforcements—like a promising new player such as Vitor Roque—would enhance their chances of competing effectively.
Abel's preference for a smaller squad raises further discussion as well; while this approach can lead to a tightly-knit team dynamic, the reliance on younger players, primarily from the youth setup, is seen by some as a risk, especially when dealing with high-pressure situations.
