My Take

What strikes me about Ramon Menezes is that he's the kind of figure most football fans outside Brazil only meet through a coaching headline. As a player he reportedly logged over 350 matches and nearly 100 goals as an attacking midfielder, which to me reads as a genuinely productive career, not a footnote. I find his second act more interesting, though: stepping in to manage Brazil's under-23 side, and even taking the senior team in an interim spell, is a level of trust you don't hand to just anyone. I'd love to know how he translates that scorer's instinct into the patience coaching demands.
