According to Léo José, Tite will begin his journey as coach of Flamengo, taking charge of the Rio team at a challenging time. In his first week of training during FIFA Data, the experienced coach will have to deal with the absence of four important players in his squad. The absences begin in midfield, where Chilean Erick Pulgar, Uruguayan Arrascaeta and Brazilian Gerson are serving their national teams in international commitments. These players will only be available to Tite from October 18th, which limits his tactical options for the initial matches under his command.
In addition to the trio of midfielders, midfielder Allan will also be left out of the initial activities of Tite at Flamengo. The player is recovering from an injury and will not be available to the coach at the beginning of his tenure. Therefore, Tite will have to adjust his formation and strategy considering these significant absences. Tite's arrival at Flamengo generated great expectations among fans, who hope to see his attacking style of play and tactical organization being implemented at the club. However, the coach will have to deal with these absences right away, which represents an additional challenge in adapting to the new environment.
To make up for the absences of Erick Pulgar, Arrascaeta, Gerson and Allan, Tite will have to look for solutions within Flamengo's current squad. Reserve players will have the opportunity to show their value and earn a place in the starting team. This could be a chance for young talent to demonstrate their potential. Another concern for Tite will be the integration of his methods and playing philosophy with the Flamengo squad. Adapting players and coaching staff to a new tactical approach takes time, and the coach will have to be effective in conveying his ideas and implementing his style of play quickly.
The Brazilian football calendar is always challenging, with national and international competitions taking place simultaneously. Tite will have to manage this busy schedule, making strategic choices to preserve his players' physical fitness and maintain the team's performance at a high level. On the other hand, Tite's arrival is also seen as an opportunity for Flamengo to resume its path of success after an unstable period. The Rio club has a talented squad and the hiring of the experienced coach could be the catalyst for a season of achievements.
In addition, Tite will also have to deal with the expectations of the red and black fans, known for their passion and demand. Fans hope to see Flamengo playing flashy football and competing at a high level both on the national and international stage. In short, Tite will face a challenging start as Flamengo's coach, dealing with important absences and the need to quickly adapt to the squad and the club's philosophy. However, his experience and skills as a coach could be the necessary ingredient for Flamengo's success in the upcoming season. The fans eagerly await the first steps of this new journey in charge of the team.
The club has a different point of view from the coach

In an interview given after the defeat of Flamengoto Peñarol, 1-0, coach Tite was direct in responding to the boos received by the fans. The statement, marked by a frank tone, exposed the coach's pragmatic vision in relation to demanding fans and the pressure for results. “I respect the fans’ feelings. Of course I feel that (the boos), I'm human”, said Tite, recognizing the fans' frustration in the face of the setback.
Tite's speech reveals that he understands the role of fans as a fundamental part in the context of a club, especially in a team of great expression like Flamengo. By mentioning that the boos affect him as a human being, the coach demonstrates empathy, but does not fail to highlight that the only way to reverse this situation is with achievements on the field. “It can only be reversed in one way”, pointed out the coach.
THE MISTAKE THAT COSTED EXTREMELY DEARLYThe response reflects the experience of Titein dealing with pressure who follows the command of great teams in Brazilian football. With successful spells at clubs such as Corinthians, Grêmio and the Brazilian national team itself, the coach has a track record that puts him in a position to understand, perhaps like few others, the relationship between performance on the field and fans' expectations. For him, this connection is clear: “Do you know how to win fans? Do you know how I won over the fans of the other clubs I played for? Win an important title”, he declared.
The phrase highlights the centrality of titles in football, especially in mass clubs like Flamengo. In Brazil, the culture of results is intense, and Tite recognizes that fans have a limited tolerance for negative results. Winning titles, for him, is the key to gaining the support of the fans, and anything other than that results in discontent: “If not, bye.”
This last part of Tite's speech summarizes the characteristic impatience of demanding fans like Flamengo. The coach makes it clear that, without obtaining relevant trophies, the relationship with the fans deteriorates quickly. The pressure is constant and is part of the daily life of those who take on the leadership of top teams. Tite seems, however, to be aware of this scenario and how it needs to be faced.
The club has its greatest moment of inconstancy

Tite's statement came after a delicate moment for Flamengo. The defeat to Peñarol, at home, in a group stage match of the Copa Libertadores, raised alarm bells for fans and the coaching staff. Flamengo had high expectations for the season, especially after major reinforcements and the arrival of Tite, a coach with wide recognition on the national and international scene.
The pressure on Flamengo is nothing new. The club, which has one of the biggest fans in the world, is known for its high expectations for titles. The expensive squad, made up of renowned players, also increases this demand. Each stumble is widely covered by the media and amplifies the dissatisfaction of part of the fans, who demand immediate results.
CAN IT GO BAD AT THE MOMENT?The Copa Libertadores, in particular, has a important meaning for Flamengo and its fans. The continental tournament is seen as one of the club's main objectives each season. Any result other than victory can generate dissatisfaction and pressure on the technical committee, as occurred after the setback against Peñarol.
In this context, Tite's speech not only recognizes the fans' dissatisfaction, but also is realistic in relation to what is expected from a club like Flamengo. The demand for titles is part of the package when taking over a club of this size, and the coach seems to be aware of this when he points out that he will only be able to win the support of the fans with significant victories.

With several casualties in the offensive sector, Bruno Henrique, 33 years old, will be the main name in Flamengo's attack in the next matches. The striker, who stands out for his long-standing partnership with Arrascaeta, believes that this harmony will be fundamental for the team to maintain its good performance in the competitions it competes in, such as the Brazilian Championship, the Libertadores and the Copa do Brasil.
"We are the players at the front. Arrascaeta is a classic midfielder, who knows how to create plays and finish. Being close to him increases the chances of scoring and assisting. With his quality and the more than six years we have played together, we understand each other just by looking at each other", stated Bruno Henrique in an interview with ESPN.
Flamengo will no longer have Pedro and Everton Cebolinha until the end of the season. Furthermore, Michael and Luiz Araújo are only expected to return to the pitch in the final stretch of 2024. Gabigol, who also faces physical problems, has been used less frequently. With this series of absences, the leading role falls to Bruno Henrique, who has the mission of leading the red and black attack at a decisive moment of the season.
To make up the offensive sector, Mais Querido also has newcomers Gonzalo Plata and Carlinhos, as well as young promises from the club's youth categories. Despite the losses, the expectation is that Bruno Henrique's experience and quality will be enough to keep the team competitive in competitions.
