Where once they would serenade coach Jose Mourinho at Stamford Bridge with an operatic flourish, now Chelsea fans have fallen headlong for another man driving them inexorably to the Premier League title. To the Bridge faithful, Mourinho’s “not spe- cial any more” now he’s pitched up at Manchester United but their embrace for coach Antonio Conte will be suffocating if he guides the Blues to a title-clinching victory at West Bromwich Albion today. As the arty canvas held by his daughter at Monday’s home victory over Middlesbrough put it, the Italian is now already enshrined as “The Confather” to a happy family of ruthless operators in blue. No wonder. Albeit a quietly charming, thoughtful figure away from the pitch, on the touchline Conte comes across as a manic, hyperactive figure making demands of his players that they dare not refuse. Win this game or else, his eyes scream. So don’t expect him to stop now. Conte has spent his time since the 3-0 drubbing of Middlesbrough trotting out his familiarly cautious mantra about hard work, fight and commitment still being needed to finish their efficient job. Just a “little step”, he warned softly, but “one that won’t be easy”. He hailed West Brom as “a really good, physical team” but, of late, the truth is that Tony Pulis’s eighth-placed side have looked anything but, having lost four of their last five games. If Chelsea win, they will have an unassailable 10-point lead over Tottenham Hotspur and will become English champions for a sixth time.

Disto é feito a vida. É preciso findar uma etapa para que a outra possa iniciar. Encerro no ano de 2017 minha trajetória como acadêmico de jornalismo no Centro Universitário Franciscano com enorme satisfação, afinal aqui passei por processos cruciais no meu crescimento pessoal e, claro, profissional. Em 2013, ingressei nesta jornada, a qual já havia definido para meu futuro, sem titubear, muito tempo atrás. Recordo-me de uma professora no ensino fundamental me elogiar por ter a fala ponderada frente a uma atividade de debate. Não foi ali que defini minha carreira, foi bem antes, mas ali tive a certeza que estaria fazendo a escolha certa. Minha decisão veio anos antes, na saída de um jogo de futebol, qual havia sido o destaque. Fui entrevistado por um comunicador de uma rádio local. Após, bati um papo com o repórter e então percebi que não queria ser jogador, mas sim jornalista esportivo.

The Gen ‘Z’, ‘Home Generation’, Post- CMillennials or whatever strange label they wear, are trying to find themselves in this morphing world we live in. They are looked upon as being more open minded - accepting other cultures a lot more readily (thanks to the Internet). These children are building upon the foundation of the previous generations, eyeing the world through a very unique perspective - they understand that the only way the world can become better is when we realize that we all want to live by each oth- er’s happiness - not by each other’s misery. Moreover, learning from the previous generation with their ‘can do’ attitude, they are the people that will take the first steps down a new road, armed with controversial thinking and beaming intelligence. If you are ever against this force which typhoons are named after, just stop and think - who has really raised them? This generation will suffer, just like the ones before them.
