Parece que há uma vontade imensa da comunicação social em "tirar" Leonardo Jardim do banco do Sporting e de nele sentar Marco Silva. Marco Silva é um bom treinador, um potencial bom substituto de Jardim caso este saia, mas isso implica a saída de Jardim, o que não parece ser o caso.
Os sportinguistas não se devem baralhar, devem apoiar o seu actual técnico e reconhecer-lhe a competência que permitirá ao Sporting lutar ainda mais convictamente pelos títulos que têm faltado nos últimos (longos) anos. Quanto a Marco Silva é o treinador do Estoril e deve ser-lhe reconhecido valor, apenas isso!

O próximo defeso será crucial para o Sporting encurtar ainda mais a distância para benfica e porto. Não podemos cometer erros nas contratações que serão efectuadas. Convém não esquecer que das várias contratações desta época só quatro se afirmaram (Maurício, Jefferson, Slimani e Montero), dois mostraram atributos mas sem convencer cabalmente (Heldon e Piris), um nem se mostrou (Chicabala) e os restantes (Welder, Magrão, Cissé e Vitor) ficaram bastante aquém do expectável. Bem sei que é bem menos provável acertar em jogadores de milhares de euros do que em jogadores de milhões de euros, mas mesmo assim, houve más opções e para a próxima época não se poderão cometer tantos erros de casting!
