During the "Posse de Bola" program on the UOL portal, the journalist and rubro-negro Mauro Cezar Pereira, harshly criticized Gabigol for the photo with the Corinthians shirt. The columnist stated that it is a lack of respect from the attacker, who has accumulated controversies since last year, in addition to his poor performances. For Mauro Cezar, attitudes like this make it difficult to renew Gabigol's contract at Flamengo.
'Lack of respect from a player who has done stupid things': "The issue is not one of If he is moved or not, the lack of respect from a player who has done a lot of stupid things is absurd. We can remember that, in addition to his terrible performances, that he is unable to react, he has been playing poorly for practically a year and a half, he is not doing well. playing nothing, very rare minimally acceptable performances, Gabriel was the player who sent a kiss to the opposing coach after losing a final, then he talks about the mixed zone he would do here, that he loves Dorival Jr., he could send a kiss any day of the year year, he blew a kiss at the coach's press conference in front of several journalists and cameras. For God's sake, no one is an idiot, you can celebrate a person you like in many ways, everything has its moment."
'Of course the Flamengo fan didn't like it': "Then he did that and at the beginning of the year he went on a podcast and talked about Corinthians in a way that if it were Cássio talking about Flamengo, Corinthians fans wouldn't I would like it. Of course, the flamengo fan didn't like it and nothing happened, because the leaders are permissive, they accept anything. Then he arranged this punishment, which embezzled Flamengo, for better or for worse, he earns a salary from Flamengo and earns very well. And now this situation: he's at home, he could be wearing pajamas, Gabigol must have a lot of clothes, he's a bit vain, he must have a lot of different clothes, but he's just wearing the Corinthians shirt and one of his friends, look what a curious thing , a friend in a closed circle takes a photo and that photo leaks. What an incredible thing. This assumes that Flamengo is right, according to ge, Flamengo understands that the photo is real. The player's staff denied the photograph, but it took a long time for them to deny it."
'It's getting easier not to renew Gabigol's contract': "He's making life easier for the player Landim and Marcos Braz, especially Landim, who has his political ambitions at Flamengo: he won't run for office because he can't, but he certainly wants to be his successor. Gabriel is a problem, how do you renew the contract of an expensive player, who hasn't played well for a long time and who many people think will be the new Pato or the new Luan? In other words, he will never play well again. I honestly don't know that, I don't have a crystal ball, but I know he hasn't been playing anything for a long time. So, it's a situation where he's making life easier for the managers, it's getting easier not to renew the contract."
