Carlinhos' performance in the last classic between Flamengoand Vasco, played on Sunday, has generated a wave of criticism and questions from the red and black fans. The striker, who entered the field in the 18th minute of the second half, replacing Bruno Henrique, played a discreet role and ended up failing to help the team in one of the most decisive moments of the match.

The classic, as always, was a game intense and highly anticipated by both fans, with great weight for the championship table and the morale of the teams. However, Carlinhos' entry, which lasted just 27 minutes, was considered below expectations, especially in a scenario where Flamengo was looking for a victory to distance itself from its rivals.

FLAMENGO HAS A DEFICIENCY IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP < /b>

During the 27 minutes he was on the field, Carlinhos barely appeared, failing to influence the game as expected. The player only touched the ball a few times, did not create clear scoring chances and also did not help efficiently in the defensive system. With an apathetic performance, the striker ended up becoming a target of frustration for the fans, who expected more from a player who, at other times, had already demonstrated the potential to be decisive.

The lack of offensive participation was a of the main points raised by critics. In a game that required creativity and boldness to break through the Vasco blockade, Carlinhos was unable to find spaces or impose his presence as a constant threat to the opponent's goal. In classics, where every detail makes a difference, this lack of protagonism weighed even more.


The replacement of Bruno Henrique by Carlinhoswas also a factor that generated discussion. Bruno Henrique, although he was not having a brilliant performance, is a player recognized for his ability to decide games, especially in big confrontations. His departure 18 minutes into the second half was justified by the coaching staff as part of the planning to spare the athlete, who recently returned from injury.

"Flamengo has this culture of fighting for every title. There is no focus on just one competition, the goal is to win everything within reach", he explained.


THE COACH WANTS A COMPETITIVE STYLE

This characteristic is notable in Flamengoin recent years, which has won several important competitions, such as the Brazilian Championship and the Copa Libertadores. Tite, accustomed to pressure and the need for results, states that this mentality is something he is adopting in his day-to-day life at the club. “I see this culture, and this is what we are doing. Flamengo has this requirement, and I am a coach who likes this type of challenge.”

Coach Tite, from Flamengo, confirmed that Gabigol, one of the club's recent idols, now occupies third place in the team's attack. The decision sparked discussions among fans and experts, but, according to the coach, the choice was based on technical criteria and recent performance. During a press conference, Tite was asked about the change in the attack hierarchy and explained the reasons that led him to prefer other players in front of Gabigol. “Training, games, specifically.

Carlinhos decisive against Bolívar. Carlinhos decisive against Atlético Mineiro, with a goal. Decisive against Vitória. That's why the option was made", said the coach, highlighting Carlinhos' recent performances as a key factor in his decision.

This change in command of the attack reflects Tite's management style, which values ​​performance and meritocracy. Since arriving at Flamengo, the coach has adopted a discourse that no one has a guaranteed place in the team, regardless of name or history. This can be clearly seen in this decision, in which a player like Gabigol, who was once crucial. in Flamengo's recent titles, he loses space to a colleague who is going through a good phase.


FLAMENGO HAS ITS OWN


Carlinhos, the new holder of the position, has shown himself to be decisive in important matches , as Tite highlighted. Against Bolívar, Atlético Mineiro and Vitória, he played a fundamental role in the success of Flamengo, whether with goals or participation in important plays. These factors were enough to guarantee the coach's preference in placing him as the main option in attack.

Gabigol's situation, on the other hand, seems to reflect a phase of adaptation to the new command. Although he is a renowned player and beloved by the fans, his current phase has not been as brilliant as that of other periods of his career. In training and games, according to Tite, Gabigol has not been able to stand out to the point of regaining his starting position.
