"In 2014, when I arrived to the Guild, Arthur was still juvenile. In 2015 had a project to go up the players of the base to reduce the costs of the staff because the then president, Fabio Koff, pretended to buy the stadium, Sand Guild. We did this work and go up 15 players: Wallace, Pedro Rocha, Marcelo Hermes, that all were sold… And was Arthur", remembers Scolari, that directed recently to Guild before going to train to the Guangzhou Evergrande.
"If we speak of the Barça, Arthur has the suitable characteristics to adapt "
"Arthur had two opportunities like titling, but there were other players that went better. The big manager by his growth was his current technician, Renato Portaluppi. He was the one who affirmed it in the half of the field and the one who has done that it seem with Iniesta. At present, Arthur works in short and always goes to receive and to give a second opportunity to play the balloon", explains Scolari.
"It grew a lot, much more of what could imagine me. TTo the time in 2015 the characteristics of the team did not fit with his profile, that is what occurs at present with the Guild", ensures, and does not surprise that now it sound for the Barça. "It is normal. As it said, Arthur has the style of Iniesta, that is the greater footballer that already saw to play beside Paul Scholes. They are that type of players that do not fail a pass because in place to look for played milagrosas, play of easy and simple form. Arthur is in this context".
