Flamengo has not performed below expectations for the red and black fans and for those who follow the club's daily life. Not only Tite's choices, but also the sequence of injuries, wear, tight schedule, drop in production of some athletes and the board's choices have reflected in the team's performance on the field. Thus, journalist Fernando Campos, from ESPN, commented on the events this past Friday (20).

Donan spoke about Flamengo's performance in the defeat to Peñarol, last Thursday (19) , in the first leg of the Libertadores quarter-finals and also highlighted the relationship between Tite and the red and black fans.


“A very bad performance from Flamengo, in every sense. I think the relationship between Tite and the red and black fans never strengthened. There was always resistance; his history at Corinthians, wear and tear during his time with the Brazilian national team, type of game... he never, in fact, managed to mold himself into Flamengo's game DNA”, began the journalist.


TITE IS NOT THE BIGGEST BLAME FOR FLAMENGO'S PHASE

In his speech, the commentator highlighted that he doesn't think Tite is the biggest culprit for Flamengo's current phase. He highlights that the blame should be distributed among all the club's football departments.


“It's a job that, for me, has been regressing. Flamengo's big problem is not Tite. If there is something wrong every year, the big problem is not the technician; this responsibility needs to be shared. Management, Medical Department, Tite, players... but the performance itself (was bad), even with the absences. Flamengo had a lot of possession and didn't create. Without approaching, without connecting, without the enveloping play, without triangulation, he exaggerated a lot with crosses; a cast of millions with the quality of Gerson, Arrascaeta, Plata, Bruno Henrique, Alex Sandro […} he should play more“, he pointed out.

FOCUS ON THE NEXT GAME

Flamengo faces Grêmio this Sunday (22), in the 27th round of the Brasileirão. Rubro-Negro needs the victory to be able to close the gap on the top three and try to get back into the fight for the title. The match will be at 6:30 pm, in Porto Alegre.

Recovering from muscular fibrosis, Gabigol was not included in the match between Grêmio and Flamengo, scheduled for this Sunday (22), at 6:30 pm, at the Arena. Recently, news emerged on social media that worried red and black fans, suggesting that the striker would no longer be involved until the end of his contract. However, a source close to the board confirmed that this information is unfounded. The information is from the 'Mundo Rubro-Negro' portal.

Thus, Gabriel Barbosa will be listed by Tite again as soon as he is 100% recovered from fibrosis. According to the club, this condition is not considered an injury, but rather a complication that may arise during the muscle healing process. Gabigol felt discomfort in his thigh when he returned for the classic against Vasco last weekend.


Even with the possibility of counting on Gabigol, Tite sees him as the third option for the attack, behind Bruno Henrique and even Carlinhos, formerly of Nova Iguaçu: “Carlinhos was decisive against Bolívar, Atlético-MG, Vitória. That was why this option was made (instead of the number 99). We scored the goal with Carlinhos on the field”, said the coach after the draw with Vasco, last Sunday (15).


Uncertain future: Gabigol could leave Flamengo in DecemberMarked in Flamengo's history, the striker is expected to leave the club in December, when his contract ends. To date, there have been no conversations between the parties regarding a possible renewal. Four Brazilian clubs are monitoring Gabigol's situation at Flamengo: Bahia, Palmeiras, Cruzeiro and Corinthians.


Since his arrival at Flamengo in 2019, Gabigol has won two Brazilian titles, two Libertadores, one Copa do Brasil, four Cariocas, one Recopa and two Supercups.

Gabigol's contract is nearing the end and the draft is getting smaller and smaller. In this way, the striker once again became a topic on sports programs and for commentator Rodrigo Mattos, the number 99 does not deserve more time on the field than he has received.

This is because, in the draw in last Sunday's classic (15), Carlinhos was chosen by Tite to replace Bruno Henrique, making it clear that, at this moment, Gabigol is the red-black's third option. 


"The most important thing is not that Gabigol is happy, it is that Flamengo is happy with the level of Gabigol's performances. And I think that neither Flamengo nor any fans are satisfied. It's not possible to put it into account the lack of rhythm, of minutes. He's had a zillion chances, he comes in and doesn't produce anything, he never gains rhythm. Then, it's always this thing of giving continuity. , said Rodrigo Mattos on 'Uol'.


Soon afterwards, Renato Maurício Prado disagreed with Rodrigo's opinion: “I agree that Gabigol is not delivering anything, but I think Tite should have put him as a center forward instead of Pedro. Two, three games, give it a chance. He only replaces Arrascaeta, he has nothing to do with that position. Putting Carlinhos in front of him, no matter how bad he is, is absurd to me. In fact, the entire Maracanã thought that (against Vasco)”, he commented.

GOAL DRY AND END OF CONTRACT

Gabigol's last goal for Flamengo was on July 20th, for the Brasileirão. Therefore, with Pedro's injury, the number 99 will have to reestablish himself to score again for Rubro-Negro.

It is worth remembering that the striker's contract with Rubro-Negro ends on December 31st . Thus, Gabigol only has three more months to complete his stay at Mais Querido with a "golden key".
