Flamengo is the isolated leader of the Brasileirão, is experiencing a good moment in its relationship with the fans and is going through a great period of the season. For defender Fabrício Bruno, starter and fundamental piece of the defensive system, Mengão's secret in the national league is regularity. 

“In the points championship you have to be as regular as possible. They can't fluctuate or they'll end up losing silly points in theoretically easy games. We need to maintain regularity to win points in every game,” said Fabrício to 'ge' at the red-black squad's media day.


But the defender doesn't forget the bad moments of the year, with defeats mainly in the Libertadores that generated protests from the fans. Recovery that makes Fabrício value even more the current moment the team is going through and focus on maintaining the pace to end the year with a trophy.


“Every championship that Flamengo enters is to win a title, so we have been campaigning for growth up until now. We went through difficult times during the season, but we have been stabilizing to achieve results throughout the championship”, he concluded.

The regularity mentioned by Fabrício Bruno was also present during the period in which the team suffered absences for the Copa América. With an average of seven absences in the last eight games, most of them due to call-ups, Mengão won 17 of the 24 points. A campaign that is precisely what puts the team in the lead with 30 points. A point of advantage for Botafogo and Palmeiras, tied for second place.


Flamengo's next game will be against Fortaleza, this Thursday (11), at 8 pm, at Maracanã, for the 16th round of the Brazilian. Fabrício Bruno should start the match as a starter alongside David Luiz, a defense that Tite indicated is the main one at the moment.

One of the leaders of the red and black squad, Fabrício chose to stay at Flamengo this season instead of accepting an offer from West Ham, in England. The team reached an agreement with Fla for the transfer, which would be worth around 15 million euros, but they were unable to convince the defender.

Despite his dream of playing in Europe, he decided to remain at Flamengo for at least at least one more time and you can participate in new titles. Camisa 15 has already been champion of Libertadores, Copa do Brasil and Carioca with the Sacred Mantle.

“It is an extremely private decision, there will be the right time to talk about it. What I would like to make clear is that I am extremely happy here and I will continue working for the benefit of my club”, he said shortly after news of his refusal.

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.
