Former midfielder Kleberson, Brazilian champion with Flamengo in 2009, declared that he considers that season's team superior to the 2019 team, coached by Jorge Jesus, who won both the Brazilian Championship and the CONMEBOL Libertadores. The statement was made during an interview with Charla Podcast, on YouTube, where the current technical director of América-MG analyzed the differences between the two teams, placing the 2009 squad ahead.
COMPARISON BETWEEN THE TEAMS OF 2009 AND 2019
In the interview, Kleberson justified his choice by highlighting the tactical freedom that the 2009 team had, in contrast to the tactical rigor of the 2019 team. He mentioned that coach Andrade, responsible for the title of that year, it gave players greater freedom, which allowed the team to act more freely and creatively.
— I think the 2009 team is better. What's the difference between the 2009 and '19 teams? In 2019, players were more ready to play in the slots they had to play. In 2009, we played free. Andrade didn't train much, he gave him freedom — explained Kleberson.
When remembering the 2009 team, Kleberson highlighted the technical quality and intelligence cognitive skills of that season's players, such as Adriano, Petkovic, Zé Roberto and Léo Moura, who, according to him, had the freedom to play according to the circumstances of the match.
— With all due respect to Flamengo's 2019 team, to the players... Technically, cognitively, I think it was a little more. There are two teams (laughs) — commented Kleberson.
Flamengo in 2009, which ended up champion under the command of Andrade, had a base formed by Bruno; Léo Moura, Ronaldo Angelim, David Braz and Juan; Airton, Willians and Toró; Zé Roberto and Adriano.
The 2019 Flamengo, led by Jorge Jesus, enchanted Brazil and South America with engaging and offensive football. The team, which won the Brasileirão and Libertadores in the same year, was made up of prominent players such as Diego Alves, Rafinha, Rodrigo Caio, Pablo Marí, Filipe Luís, Willian Arão, Gerson, Everton Ribeiro, Arrascaeta, Bruno Henrique and Gabigol.
