After 7 months in my new job

I think it's time for me to share something about my job with you guys; since August last year I went to a Football club here in Porto; it was declared bankrupt in 2005/2006, but it was reborn 3 years later.It's name "Sport Comércio e Salgueiros", i.e. Salgueiros

Since I finished my graduation in Sports and Physic Education, I told them I could "offer" my services in a more scientific way so they redirected me to a Junior team (Their "A" team before seniors) The championship is almost over, and stresses apart, I really enjoyed making part of this team; I was one of the coaches, learned and teached a lot.

We're now at 2nd place where we can go to the finals where the two 1st places in both series battle for the title.

So here's the little motivational video I've made to show them just before the crucial game next Saturday, and yes, that's all footage of them

Don't bother looking for me in those images, I only show in one, and I'm well hidden

Cheers and it's a joy for me to share this with you

As you can see by signature I am also a fan of football, and play it for my school. Out of interest, what do you coach?

Great stuff Tiago!

You should be really proud!

Best of luck for the finals!

I am also a football fan but i wont mention the team as i support as they are....Shall we say.......In a low division (League 1 here in the UK)

For now I train Goalkeepers, physical training, opponents observation, new players; actually a lot of stuff since it's a club without proper infra-structures...

I am Richard, I'll remember you guys when I become the next Mourinho

Yep you can buy me a G27!!!

Do you think you'd like to coach at a higher level, and is it possible with the qualifications you have at the moment?

Or is there much much more studying?

I will, make that 2; but for now I can only offer you my old Momo

For now it's impossible, awaiting for the Portuguese Football federation to release new coach training levels (3 months duration each) for me to get higher...

Isn't that you on the left of the very first pic ?

nope, I only appear in the 4th picture with the blue jacket

Well keep the dream alive and you never know!

Can always come to the UK and become the 'special one' over here

haha, I wish

You never know!!!
They'll be chanting "Who's Mourinho, We've got Malafaya"

Pff, when it comes to English football I am a fan of a certain League 2 team

Really hope you guys come off best, so if you win you move into Portuguese Serie B?

Yep, National juniors 2nd division

AFC Wimbledon, and I assume you're either a Wednesday or United fan?

That's very exciting News Tiago wish you the best of luck ...

I Support Chelsea and would love for you to replace Benitez ...

I Think Richard supports United or i could be wrong and say Chesterfield

So you are one of those Benitez haters, Carl

Benitez trained the Valencia FC here many years ago ... he was quite succesful and won two leagues. I'm not a soccer fan, though. Team sports have never been my preferred ones

But of course I wish Tiago best of success

You are right Carl! But How dare you suggest i support Chesterfield!

AFC Wimbledon aren't too bad, How come you live in the UK anyway? Moved here or was you born here Alessio?

Thanks guys, we have a match today at 3.00 pm (GMT time), I really hope we can win

Oxford United fan here, it's a painful and rollercoaster experience most of the season.

I leave all my Football management dreams to the Football Manager games.

Good luck with your match!

You're doing a great job Tiago
Good luck on your next match and for your career

Merci
