Portuguese midfielder is known as a great admirer of Brazilian coach Luiz Felipe Scolari who helped him get the Portuguese nationality to play for Portugal in international football when Scolari was the coach of Portugal national team. It is believed that the Brazilian born footballer joined Chelsea mainly because of Scolari. Now that, Chelsea has sacked Scolari recently following a spate of poor performance, Deco has revealed his sadness over the matter.
Terming Scolari a great coach, Deco says that it was a shame that Scolari could not continue his job at Chelsea for a longer period. However, he accepts the matter, stating that in football this kind of things happen. With Scolari being sacked, many are now pessimistic about Deco’s future at Chelsea too. However, former Barcelona star has said that he is committed to play for Chelsea and is keen to prove that he deserves a place in the Chelsea squad. Saying that he was signed by Chelsea, not by Scolari, Deco thinks Chelsea is going through a tough time, but he is optimistic about Chelsea.
Most English clubs are now more worried about the economic recession rather than change of coach in Chelsea. Even Indian outsourcing companies have the same kind of worry.
