LACK OF CREATIVITY MARKS RUBRO-BLACK PERFORMANCE
On the red-black side, the lack of creativity was the point that caught the most attention. The team led by Tite failed to create significant opportunities throughout the game, which generated frustration among fans. Charly Alcaraz's expulsion in the second half worsened the situation, further compromising Flamengo's chances of a reaction in the match. b>
After yet another defeat, a considerable portion of the red and black fans began to express their discontent, asking for drastic measures to change the team's stance. On social media, many fans called for Tite to leave, with one of them asking: "What day can 'Tite out' start?".

Flamengo's historic idol revealed surprise to Tite indicating that Carlinhos is ahead of Gabigol in the hierarchy of the red and black squad
|
0Pedro's injury seems to reveal the real extent of the loss of space in Flamengo's team under coach Tite. Bruno Henrique has been chosen so far for the role of center forward and, against Vasco, this Sunday (15), the coach opted for Carlinhos as a substitute. A situation that idol Maestro Júnior sees as an attempt to send a message to Gabriel, who entered the classic with five minutes to go.
“It was strange, really. Even because of his CV and everything he has done, independent of Carlinhos. But I think he would automatically be the man to step into that role. Whether it was more fixed or like he has done, leaving the area more. Some message was given, but Tite didn't comment at all...", Júnior said on the program 'Seleção SporTV'.
Tite was asked about the decision at the press conference and, just as Júnior said, he didn't comment much about it. the case. The stance that the coach adopts in some questions during the press conferences, and the Gabigol topic is probably the main one. He limited himself to saying that the option was based on “training and games”, in addition to highlighting Carlinhos’ decisive moments this season. Indicating that Camisa 22 is ahead.
The red-black coach's assistant and son, Matheus Bachi, assured that it was a tactical decision. This is because they assessed that the team needed a player who could take advantage of the crosses that were being created.
But the justifications were not enough to convince André Rizek. Continuing the debate with Maestro Júnior, the journalist stated that he doesn't see how Gabigol can be useful in Tite's Flamengo if he is behind Carlinhos in the hierarchy.
“He loses Pedro and opts for Bruno Henrique. But then Bruno leaves the game and the person who enters is not Gabigol, but Carlinhos. And so, if Gabigol doesn't beat Carlinhos at this moment, I can't see him being useful. A melancholic end for one of the greatest players in Flamengo's history.”
Bruno Henrique as center forward exposes Gabigol at the end of the lineThere was a current that stated that Tite could opt for Carlinhos instead of Gabigol to maintain as much as possible the characteristics that the team had with Pedro. This is because, despite technical differences, both are taller center forwards, who compete for the aerial ball and can pivot at the edge of the area. However, the choice of Bruno Henrique has already forced a change of system.
The red-black team no longer has a regular center forward. This is because, although good at playing from the top, Bruno does not usually act as a reference to hold the ball in attack. Which forces Flamengo to play with a more mobile attack, with position changes with Luiz Araújo, Gerson and now Gonzalo Plata. In addition to having reduced shots and touched the ball more in the last two games.
Tite, therefore, is already willing to change the way he plays and adapt to the team without Pedro in charge of the attack. But he has not yet shown that he is considering the possibility of testing the team with Gabigol in the starting 11.

The pressure for a possible dismissal of the coach begins to be discussed on social media
|
0Flamengo suffered a significant setback in its CONMEBOL Libertadores campaign this Tuesday, losing by 1-0 for Palestino, complicating their situation in group E of the competition. The negative result in Coquimbo reflects a bad moment for the Rio club, which now equals its worst campaigns in the group stage of this century.
In this way, the pressure on Tite begins to be discussed on social media. However, according to an investigation by our portal, Mais Querido's board of directors completely shields the current technical committee, understanding that there is a moment of technical decline for the main players in the squad.
Another detail that also influences not being fired are the few options on the market to take on the position. To replace Tite, top management would have to negotiate with foreign coaches, which would take time to achieve, at a delicate moment in which Rubro-Negro is competing for places in the round of 16 of the Libertadores and is seeking to advance to the next stage in the Copa do Brasil.
FLAMENGO HAS THEIR WORST LIBERTADORES CAMPAIGN IN THE CENTURYWith just 4 points accumulated in four matches, the team led by coach Tite repeats the performances of 2002 and 2014, years in that Flamengo also faced early eliminations at the same stage of the tournament. The recent defeat raises concerns about the possibility of a new early elimination, although there is still a mathematical chance of reversing the current scenario.
Given this scenario, Flamengo can reach, at most, 10 points by the end of the phase of groups. With this, Rubro-Negro will depend not only on themselves, but also on a combination to still be able to dream of a place in the knockout stages of the Libertadores.
