Currently at Sport, midfielder Thiago Neves regrets his provocations made to Atlético-MG during his passage through the cruise. In an interview with “Bem, Amigos”, the player admitted that he “took it hard” with the then rival.
“I, today, with my mind that I would not do the things that I did. I regret several things I said about Atlético, other things during the time of Fluminense and Flamengo, so when you get an experience, you sees the mistakes he made in the past. I don’t want my children to do the same as I did “, said the player.
“At the time of Cruzeiro, as much as I talked about Atlético, they had problems with my children at school, of threats. I really regret it. If I had stepped on the brakes a little, I think I could have been a better player”, he added. .
Thiago Neves believes that the “good phase” in Raposa resulted in exaggerated provocations.
“I think it was more (at the time of) Cruzeiro, that I took it hard with the club, with the players. I made a joke once, the accident with Brumadinho had just happened and I made a joke talking about Atlético, a thing I was very bad. The time of my life that I made the most mistakes as a player was at Cruzeiro, “admitted the midfielder.
“I think I was excited by the moment I was living in Cruzeiro. I had never lived such a good time. I let it go to my head and ended up exaggerating”, he justified himself.
Regarding the passage through the Guild, in 2019, Thiago said he was “very discouraged” due to the relegation of Cruzeiro.
“In 2019, my football I was low, I was very discouraged, I was taking a lot of beating. I arrived at Grêmio and I was not embraced as I was here at Sport. I arrived with a lot of demands, because it was a personal request from Renato “, he recalled.
Today at Sport, Thiago Neves highlighted the affection of both the fans and the club.
“It is quite different. There is a prejudice against coming to play here in the Northeast. I was one at the beginning of my career. I always complained about being too far away, because it was always very hot, the field was always heavy, but today I see that I should have come before, “said the player.
“I arrived embraced by the fans, by the board, by the players. From my first day, everyone made me feel very comfortable. Jair also, we had an important conversation that made me calm to play too,” he continued.
