Coach Tite is still in the process of defining the team that will face Botafogo in next Sunday's classic. Flamengo's lineup for the clash is a topic that generates great expectations, both due to the importance of the game and the recent changes in the team. With some doubts still hanging over the coach's head, the starting line-up should only be confirmed moments before the match.

In recent activities, Tite worked on different options for the lineup, but some uncertainties remain, especially on the sides and in midfield. The absence of important players, such as Pedro, Gabigol and Pulgar, due to injuries and suspension, respectively, increases the need for adjustments. Given this scenario, the likely line-up for the classic should include some new features.


THE "FLADEPENDENCE" APPEARS MORE AND MORE IN THE CLUB 

In defense, Rossi should be kept as a starter in goal. He has been the trusted name in the position and should continue to occupy the position. On the right flank, Wesley appears as the most likely option. The player< /a> has shown consistency and could gain another opportunity to establish himself in the team. In defense, Fabrício Bruno and David Luiz should form the defender duo, a combination that Tite has been using frequently and that tends to be maintained.

The main doubt is on the left flank, where Léo Pereira and Ayrton Lucas compete for the place. Léo Pereira, who has been improvised in the position, could be the chosen one, but Ayrton Lucas, with more offensive characteristics, is also an option that cannot be ruled out. In midfield, Allan and Léo Ortiz should form the midfielder duo. Allan has been one of the pillars of the defensive sector, while Léo Ortiz, recently arrived, could win the place alongside him. Arrascaeta, the team's technical reference, should occupy the point guard position, responsible for organizing plays and creating scoring opportunities.

“AeroFla” is more than a simple reception at the airport. This is a manifestation of Flamengo's passion, which transcends results on the field. Fans promise to fill Tom Jobim International Airport, in Rio de Janeiro, to give the players one last incentive before leaving for Uruguay.

Flamengo's current scenario in the Libertadores reflects a team that, despite its star-studded squad, still seeks to consolidate a style of play under Tite's command. The defeat to Peñarol, at home, complicated life for Flamengo, who now need to win away to guarantee their classification. The fans, aware of the difficulty, do not let up and reinforce the idea that support off the field is essential for success on it.

The Flamengo, one of the biggest clubs in Brazilian football, is experiencing a moment of turbulence. The recent defeat to Peñarol, in the middle of Maracanã, by 1-0, during the first game of the quarter-finals of the Copa Libertadores, increased even more pressure on coach Tite, who had already been the target of criticism due to his poor performance. expected from the team throughout the season. With club elections scheduled for the end of the year and Tite's contract approaching the end, the coach's renewal is considered unlikely. In this scenario, Luís Castro emerges as one of the main candidates to take over Flamengo's technical command, according to details released behind the scenes.

The match against Peñarol, held last Thursday (19), was a reflection of the difficulties faced by Flamengo this season. The team performed poorly on the field, with few clear chances to score and unable to impose their game against an opponent who knew how to defend themselves well. The substitutions made by Tite throughout the match did not bring the expected impact, and Flamengo ended up being defeated at home, frustrating their fans.


TITE NO LONGER HAS UNANIMITY IN FLAMENGO < /p>

The fans' dissatisfaction was evident during the game, with boos directed at the team at several moments. This behavior was not well received by everyone in the squad, especially goalkeeper Rossi. In an interview after the game, the athlete vented, stating that, during the match, the support of the fans is essential, and that booing only increases the pressure on the players at a crucial moment.

With the defeat for Peñarol, the pressure on Tite increased significantly. Since his arrival at Flamengo, the coach has been facing difficulties implementing his playing style and obtaining consistent results. The team fluctuated in important competitions and was unable to maintain the level of performance expected by a club of Flamengo's size and tradition.
