Although constantly on the move as of late, I’ve fortunately been able to watch Palmeiras’ last three games. And come to the conclusion that everything is more up in the air than ever.

Today Anything Palmeiras brings you some older news mixed up with the latest buzz. It’ll be short and sweet. AEG today published a press release on their partnership with WTorre/BlueBox: check it out on their official website.

In a few hours, Palmeiras receive América-MG at the Canindé Stadium. Believe it or not, but the game taking place before an expected 5.000 head strong [sic] crowd against the worst team of the Championship could be labelled “match of the year” for Palmeiras. The collective meltdown at the Verdão is obvious. Kleber might not [...]
