Since the beginning of the year, among the teams involved with John Kid Textinho’s holding company, the only happy is Crystal Palace, precisely because he is able to get rid of the asphalt cowboy – for the intimate of Januarary’s River, the cowboy of the carpet.
You can’t say that Botafogo fans are upset, after all, Textinho took the team to a double historic achievement in 2024, with Brazilian and Libertadores. But it is already possible to say, at the very least, that there is a lot of Putfire Cabreiro fan with the abandonment in 2025.
It’s like the old cowboy movies, those Western-Spaghetti style: the good guy, who has no good guy face, arrives in the city, sees that everything is a zone and that you can find a way and still take advantage. And it doesn’t even take much effort in the face of the community’s painting, which prays for a Savior.
After defeating such a villain (with a little gunslinger in the Libertadores final), the cowboy is celebrated as a hero, Tasca a kiss on the girl (that is, in the cup), rides on his horse (which may or may not, or not, be loaned by the New England Patriots) and rides toward the horizon, with its name shouted in choir by the community. End.
If the movie is continued, it will be to show that some time indefinite later, the city has returned to the same situation of latter and waits again for the hero’s return. Everyone likes a new but repeated movie.
With a lot of money on the pocket and without a financial “fair play” to be accountable, the cowboy Texinho showed in 2024 that it only needed the mid -year window to get some flaws and lift the cup – not that Flamengo, Palmeiras or Corinthians have leaves Salary combined with some fair play concept, but Botafogo seems to have raised the level of play.
This humble scribe is not even counting the Club World Cup, crushed on the calendar with Libertadores, in which Botafogo did not survive even to the debut duel. But then the team passed the whole state without coach, sold some of the main names, made no replacement at the time and continues to stack defeats.
This weekend, in Carioquinha, managed to be out of the top 4 (semifinalists) and even the top 8 – between fifth and eighth will play a place in the Brazilian Cup and the champion takes a bow.
In 2024, Botafogo made similar shame in the state (outside the semi) and entered hot in the Brazilian.
Perhaps the club’s famous scout department has passed the monthly statistics to John Textinho and warned that it is not yet time to save the city. Better let them suffer a little more.
Meanwhile, cowboy John shapes in France, with a hat and all. Seu Lyon is still at risk of punishment for the federation and he has now been mouth to hit PSG’s Arab cowboy – it is not good to hit PSG gunmen, but text has always been fearless. He did not always understand what Var is for, but he never lacked boldness.
In Paulistinha, congratulations to Ponte Preta, which became the best team in history (from this regulation) to be out of the semifinal, with 22 points, a point more than São Bernardo 2024. And the four big ones can be semifinalists, What has not happened since 2019, the year of the last title of Corinthians, but this is another movie.
