Former Flamengo coach Vítor Pereira shared his feelings about his tumultuous time at the Rio club. In an interview with the Spanish newspaper "Marca", the coach highlighted the tight calendar of Brazilian football as one of the reasons why he was unable to win the four titles he played for with Rubro-Negro and also did not reach the final of the Club World Cup, where they would face Real Madrid.

"The objective was to play against Real, but it wasn't possible. I arrived at Flamengo and started competing for titles without training. In two months we were competing for four titles. In Brazil, the big The problem is that the trips are very long, the temperature differences are huge, there are a lot of competitions. And you have little time to train. That's what I need to implement my way of playing. At Flamengo I didn't have time. At Corinthians, on the other hand , I think we did a great job", said Vítor.


Vítor Pereira, who was fired by Flamengo after just three months in office, reinforced his criticism of Brazilian football, arguing that "there are no solid projects" in country and that the dismissal of coaches can occur at any time. His statements highlight the challenges and instability that many coaches face in the Brazilian football scene.


"In Brazil there are good local coaches, but they try to adapt the tactical processes of European training to the incredible technical quality of the local footballer . Furthermore, in the case of Portuguese coaches, it helps that the language is the same. The bad thing is that in Brazil there are no projects. You live waiting for what happens in the next game", he said.

Vítor Pereira He has been without a club since leaving Flamengo in April. In recent months, the coach has had his name speculated about taking over at Almería or Sevilla, but talks with Spanish clubs have not progressed.

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 DEARLY 

The 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.

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.
