Flamengo hit on the departure of Arturo Vidal's midfielder this Monday. Rubro-negro sold the player to Athletico-PR and terminated the athlete this Tuesday.

In a video published on his YouTube channel, journalist Mauro Cezar Pereira spoke about Vidal's departure from Mengão. Mauro gave his opinion on the athlete's transfer and stated that the Chilean stood out in the winning team of 2022.


”There was an expectation that he could be the guy who made the difference. For physical reasons, he can no longer be the player he used to be. Even so, he was a kind of twelfth player last season with Dorival Júnior and was important in winning the Libertadores and Copa do Brasil. Vidal's presence on the field showed a change in the team's behavior on the field. This year was different, he lost space. He doesn't go out the back doors. You can't say that Vidal was a failure. Not to mention that the name of Flamengo was highlighted in the international press, when Vidal left Inter for Flamengo”, declared the journalist.

What can you expect from a coach of Tite is precisely the ability to give a face to the team, to put together a solid tactical scheme and to get the best out of each player on the field. So far, this has not happened on a regular basis. Flamengo alternates between good performances and apathetic matches, without any clear pattern of play, which has generated intense criticism.

Flamengo's situation in the Libertadores is also a cause for great concern. The team, which always enters the competition with the expectation of reaching the final stages, now sees its continuity threatened. The lack of intensity and dedication in recent games puts the club in a vulnerable position, something that was unimaginable for many fans at the beginning of the year.


A TOTALLY DIFFERENT LEVEL 

The Libertadores is a competition that requires a very high level of concentration, as well as a fierce attitude on the field. Flamengo, who was already champion of the tournament in 2019, knows these requirements well, but seems to have lost focus in the most important moments. The lack of commitment and the drop in performance in decisive games are factors that could cost the club dearly, especially if there is no quick change of attitude.

The squad, which is considered one of the best in South America, South, has not been able to deliver on the field what was expected of him. Players who were decisive in other moments now seem apathetic, without the same desire to win. This is directly reflected in the results, which have been disappointing, especially in home games, where Flamengo has historically prevailed.

The Flamengo, after the arrival of coach Tite, generated expectations among fans that the team would once again be dominant, especially in competitions such as the Libertadores. However, what we saw recently was a performance below expectations, especially in decisive games at Maracanã. The team that was once feared and put pressure on its opponents, now seems to have lost that identity, returning to being, in the words of critics and fans, a "loose team". This lack of intensity and dedication not only worries fans but also puts Flamengo's continuity in South America's main club competition at risk.

In the most recent game, Flamengo presented a style of football that was considered humiliating, which completely frustrated the expectations created. Maracanã, once a fortress, no longer has the same intimidating effect, and this was evident in the match in question. The opponents, who previously faced Flamengo with fear, now find gaps and manage to impose their game, something that a few years ago would have been unthinkable, especially at home.


A FLAMENGO DIFFERENT FROM THE USUAL

The lack of a more aggressive stance and constant pressure on the opponent is one of the points most criticized by the fans. Flamengo, under Tite's command, has not yet managed to consolidate a sequence of good performances, which raises questions about the coach's work and the squad's ability to reorganize itself. What was once a hallmark of the team – cornering the opponent and suffocating them in their field – has not been repeated, and this has direct consequences for the results.

Tite, who arrived with great expectations at < a href="https://gazetadourubu.com/noticia/que-fase-dos-ultimos-jogos-flamengo-tem-numeros-bem-açado-do-esperado-sob-o-comando-de-tite" target= "_blank">Flamengo, is now beginning to be questioned by fans and the sports press. The coach, who has an extensive and successful CV, has not yet managed to transform the squad's potential into consistent, winning football. The lack of a sequence of good performances is a problem that has been pointed out by many as a crucial flaw in his work to date.


The demand on Tite is legitimate, especially given Flamengo's recent history in football competitions. large scale, such as the Brazilian Championship and the Libertadores. The fans, who got used to titles and a team that dominated their opponents, now find themselves frustrated with the inconsistency and lack of evolution under the new coach. Although Tite only has a few months in office, the fans' patience seems to be running out quickly, mainly due to the lack of convincing results.

In the last six games under Tite's command, Flamengo presented an inconsistent performance, oscillating between victories, defeats and a frustrating draw. The team won three matches, lost two and drew one, showing that the Tite era at the club is still in the adjustment and development phase.

Of these three victories, one of them brought some relief to the red and black fans , signaling a possible return of confidence in the team, which was coming from a period of uncertainty before the coach's arrival. However, the defeats, especially the recent one against Peñarol, and the bitter draw against Vasco, have made it clear that there are many challenges ahead.


A MOMENT FOR CORRECTION 

Tite, known for his ability to organize teams and implement a disciplined style of play, took over Flamengo with high expectations. But, so far, performance on the field has raised doubts among fans and analysts. The draw against Vasco, for example, was seen as a wasted opportunity, as Flamengo was considered favorite in the Rio derby. The lack of offensive efficiency was one of the points criticized, as the team created chances, but was unable to transform the superiority into goals.

The defeat to Peñarol, however, can be considered the most worrying point of this sequence of six games. Flamengo was dominated at different moments of the match, highlighting weaknesses in both the defensive sector and midfield. Despite some flashes of creativity in attack, the team was unable to impose its game rhythm against the Uruguayans. Tite, in his press conference after the match, acknowledged the mistakes, but highlighted that work is in progress and that adjustments will be made: “We know where we went wrong, we are working to correct it. Football requires patience and focus in the process of evolution.”

One of the main questions raised after these games has been the tactical scheme adopted by Tite. The coach has been experimenting with different formations, in an attempt to find the ideal balance between attack and defense. However, constant changes seem to be impacting collective performance. The lack of interaction in some matches was evident, with players showing difficulty in adapting to their new roles on the field.
