Calleri caused losses to São Paulo
First of all, Calleri is a great player, but Calleri caused losses for São Paulo.
With Calleri on the field, the tricolor is much stronger
The player Jonathan Calleri is very strong, physically he can create a wall for the arrival of other players like Rigoni or Luciano.
Calleri manages to keep the ball in the attacking field, preventing the team from having to suffer all the time.
His goalscoring power has already been demonstrated, he doesn't usually miss goals, when he has the opportunity he usually scores goals.
Furthermore, Jonathan Calleri is a player with grit, who fights for every ball, battles and helps with marking.
But, Calleri caused losses for São Paulo.
If up until now my words have only been of praise for the Argentine player, why do I believe he has caused losses?
In principle, there is no other player in the squad with the decisive and tactical ability that Jonathan Calleri has.
The other athletes were unable to perform, whether Pablo, Ederson or even Luciano, none of them pleased the fans.
However, Luciano had a good moment, but it has been a long time since he was able to perform as he used to.
Pablo did not please the fans, the missed goals were never forgotten.
Despite helping with marking, he is not the player that São Paulo needs.
Ederson arrived with the name of an Italian national team player, but when he had the opportunity he didn't please.
Even more so with a midfield that cannot create goal chances, it becomes even more difficult for the attackers.
What damage did Calleri cause?
Firstly, after being sent off against Flamengo, I cannot attribute the defeat to the fact that the athlete was sent off.
But there's no denying that being expelled so early contributed to his inability to react.
Jonathan Calleri cannot be sent off in a play of that type, in the attacking field, without any need for that tackle.
Furthermore, when São Paulo needs good results, the Morumbi club is close to Z4.
As if being sent off in the game against Flamengo wasn't enough, he will be out of the game against Palmeiras.
For the reader to understand the importance of this game, if Juventude wins and São Paulo loses its game.
The tricolor will enter the Z4, to make matters worse, the tricolor does not have a good record against Palmeiras in its arena.
São Paulo needed to go into this game with full strength, but Calleri was sent off.
The tricolor will not be able to count on its main and only goalscorer, since Rigoni has not yet played well after the injury.
Finally, for these games the tricolor will be without Calleri, so at this moment he caused a loss by being sent off.
The player apologized and is essential for the São Paulo team, the game continues.
