DUBAI // Al Shabab have announced former Al Jazira coach Caio Junior as their new manager for next season.
Replacing Belgian Franky Vercauteren at Jazira in March, 2012, the Brazilian helped the team win the President’s Cup and reach the knockout stages of the Champions League as Group A toppers.
Jazira, however, decided against retaining his services for the next season, bringing in Paulo Bonamigo from Shabab instead. But given his success at the Capital club, Shabab are convinced Junior is the best man to lead their team next season and he has been given a one-year deal.
“He did a good job with Jazira and given his knowledge of UAE football, the club believe he is the best candidate to lead the team,” a Shabab spokesman said. “Last season, we did not do as well as we would have liked and we are confident Caio Junior will help the team meet the expectations of the club and the fans.”
Shabab parted ways with Marcos Paqueta, their coach for the last two seasons, after a disappointing finish to their 2013-14 campaign, when they managed only two points from their last six Arabian Gulf League matches. They also failed to reach a final for the first time in seven years.
Since then, the club had been linked with Romanian Dan Petrescu and former Celtic manager Neil Lennon.

Common OCD symptoms and how they manifest
Checking: the obsession or thoughts focus on some harm coming from things not being as they should, which usually centre around the theme of safety. For example, the obsession is “the building will burn down”, therefore the compulsion is checking that the oven is switched off.
Contamination: the obsession is focused on the presence of germs, dirt or harmful bacteria and how this will impact the person and/or their loved ones. For example, the obsession is “the floor is dirty; me and my family will get sick and die”, the compulsion is repetitive cleaning.
Orderliness: the obsession is a fear of sitting with uncomfortable feelings, or to prevent harm coming to oneself or others. Objectively there appears to be no logical link between the obsession and compulsion. For example,” I won’t feel right if the jars aren’t lined up” or “harm will come to my family if I don’t line up all the jars”, so the compulsion is therefore lining up the jars.
Intrusive thoughts: the intrusive thought is usually highly distressing and repetitive. Common examples may include thoughts of perpetrating violence towards others, harming others, or questions over one’s character or deeds, usually in conflict with the person’s true values. An example would be: “I think I might hurt my family”, which in turn leads to the compulsion of avoiding social gatherings.
Hoarding: the intrusive thought is the overvaluing of objects or possessions, while the compulsion is stashing or hoarding these items and refusing to let them go. For example, “this newspaper may come in useful one day”, therefore, the compulsion is hoarding newspapers instead of discarding them the next day.
