Last week, the president of Flamengo Rodolfo Landim participated in the debate promoted by ESPN, where the president answered questions about his management and the year of Mais Querido. Among them, he defined the competitions he most wants to win in 2024.

Landim was direct and cited the Libertadores and Brasileirão as his preferences. The president's statement is in line with recent discussions involving the club's priorities for the season.

On paper, Landim's and the fans' priorities seem to be aligned, but the inconsistency lies in the decisions that are made. This is because Mais Querido has prioritized the Copa do Brasil even with an advantage on the scoreboard and sparing players in the Brasileirão, which is generating questions from fans.
