0Despite Flamengo being the team with the biggest budget in South America, the club continues to disappoint its fans. This is because Mais Querido is out of the Libertadores and with only a 1% chance of winning the Brasileirão. For Raul Plasmann, Rubro-Negro's idol, the board and Tite are to blame.
"Flamengo is doing well on the financial side, but I see Flamengo being very poorly managed on the football side. If there is a capable and competent team in finances, they have a very weak team to manage football. It's not a criticism, but a comment from someone who is in the field. two Libertadores", said Raul.
"The 2019 team was supposed to be world champion. It was amateurish attitudes from the team that runs football, the department is weak. Flamengo, it's a shame. The team off the field is responsible for the team on the field, it's the team that decides who will be on the field. low, insecure, plays a good game, the next day, a bad game. You can tell me: 'the team changes a lot'. It doesn't matter", added Raul.
RAUL ALSO CRITICIZES "RODIZIOS BY TITE"
In the last two matches, Tite decided to send different teams to the field. Against Grêmio, Mais Querido played with 11 substitutes. Now against Peñarol, with the starters. The strategy was frustrating, as Rubro-Negro did not win in any of the games.
"In football, no matter how much you change, the team has a temperament. We also changed in our time, just We played with that team that was world champion three times. But the team's temperament was different. The atmosphere was the same. /p>
"I'm going to say something here: it seems like something... I'm not even going to say childish, because childish has its timing, it has its value. I don't want to belittle it. It's unbelievable, unbelievable that he would do a relay. If he did it with a strong reason, it's acceptable, but do you change a goalkeeper? I know you know, but just so we remember: the guy who scores the goal is extremely important, he can lead to the title... But you can also be world champion with a 0 to 0. The goal is important to save too. It's more important to defend than to score", concluded the world champion goalkeeper for Flamengo.

The statement came after Landim criticized the calendar planned by the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) for the 2027 Women's World Cup. According to Urias, the red-black president's stance reflects an outdated view of the women's football.
“These people who still think this way are thinking against the FIFA trend. You are swimming against what FIFA is determined to achieve, so soon stop and think about who will be behind. Whether it will be the global trend of football or whether it will be the mentalities of these people”, declared the Cruzeiro coach.
Landim's criticisms of the new calendar
In an interview with 'O Globo' at the beginning of November, Landim, President of Flamengo, questioned the inclusion of an exclusive FIFA Date for the Women's World Cup, claiming that such a measure could negatively impact the calendar of Brazilian clubs.
“FIFA is growing women's football by creating a FIFA Data. Here in Brazil, it will affect (the calendar) because it will need stadiums (in 2027 World Cup). I've already spoken to Ednaldo (CBF president): “Are you going to go to Maracanã for a Chinagame against Egyptwomen's? It will be 2 thousand people. Boot at the América stadium, at any stadium in Rio de Janeiro. Go to the Bangu stadium, man. Because there won’t be more than 2 thousand people on this section, damn it”, said Rodolfo Landim.

For the first time, Brazil will host the biggest women's football tournament, with Maracanãas the main stage. The stadium, known as the "Sacred Temple", will host eight matches, including the opening and final. The tournament will be played between June 24 and July 25, 2027.
Jonas Urias' position
For Jonas Urias, Landim's criticisms show a lack of commitment to advancement of women's football. He highlighted the importance of the competition as an opportunity to strengthen the sport in the country and promote equality in sport.
“So, reinforcement. Anyone who doesn't get this message and follow the same idea will, in a short time, probably realize that you are obsolete, that you have stopped in time”, concluded Jonas Arias, during an 'expert workshop' of FIFA.
The Minas Gerais coach's statement reinforces the debate about the role of big clubs, like Flamengo, in valuing women's football and adaptation to the international scenario.
