Defender Fabrício Bruno has been one of Flamengo's highlights this season. Last Sunday (22), the defender played a very good game in Rubro Negro's 1-0 victory over Vasco. After the duel, the player commented on the defensive system, and praised the group's confidence.

"We can suffer, however, it will be very difficult for us to concede goals due to the very compact defensive system. Everyone is helping each other and dedicating themselves, a virtue shared by all the teams he has worked for. Therefore, I am happy for this moment", said Fabrício Bruno.

"He (Tite) showed us a video in which, from the moment we did not concede goals, confidence starts to return. This means that we stop being a team that all the opponents study, where they can say: 'Ah, here we can score a goal, here we can score'. When we start working with a more defensively compact team, where everyone helps each other, the opponent may even try to score, but it will be difficult, they will have to fight hard and try hard to deserve that goal", concluded Fabrício Bruno about the defensive system.

Even though he is happy with the current moment of the squad, Fabrício Bruno will be out of this Wednesday's match (25) against Grêmio, in Porto Alegre. The defender received his third yellow card in Sunday's match (22) and will now have to serve a suspension.


Flamengo returns to the field this Wednesday (25) and will face Grêmio, in Porto Alegre. The match will be valid for the 29th round of the Brazilian Championship. It is worth remembering that Rubro Negro is in third place on the leaderboard, with 50 points.

The decision of Tite sparing the cast entirely raises some questions. On the one hand, it preserves players for more important commitments and minimizes the risk of injuries at a time when physical exhaustion can be a serious problem. On the other hand, placing an alternative team in a Brazilian Championship match, which is still in dispute, can be seen as risky, as a defeat or even a draw could have consequences on the table.

In addition , the choice of David Luiz and Cleiton in defense and Allan and Everton Araújo in midfield suggests that Tite trusts in the depth of his squad. He seems to believe that, even with the changes, the team will be able to compete at a high level. This also gives reserve players a chance to show their value, which could be crucial for the squad's dynamics in the coming weeks.


FLAMENGO HAS ITS TOUGH TIME

Another relevant point of this strategy is the issue of integration. A team that doesn't usually play together may have difficulty adapting to the demands of a high-level match, especially against opponents who are playing for real and with their starting team. The lack of rhythm among players can be a challenge to be faced, but it is also an opportunity for these athletes to gain experience and adapt more quickly to the demands of elite football.

Tite, known for being A meticulous strategist, he must have considered these factors when choosing to rotate the squad at this point in the championship. The choices reflect a balance between the physical preservation of the main players and the need to keep the team competitive throughout the season. The expectation is that this decision, even if bold, will not compromise the team's performance in the championship.

This Sunday's clash will be an important test of the depth of the squad and the ability of reserve players to take on responsibilities at crucial moments. Cleiton, for example, will have the chance to show that he can be a reliable option for the defense in the future, and Allan and Everton Araújo will have the task of controlling the midfield and dictating the pace of the game.

This Sunday, for the 27th round of the Brazilian Championship, the coach Tite made a decision that caught attention: he will spare the entire starting team for the clash. With the tight schedule and sequence of games, the coach chose to preserve his main athletes for future commitments, focusing on keeping the squad in good physical condition and avoiding injuries. This rotation strategy, common in long competitions, reflects the need to keep the squad fresh and competitive in the decisive phases of the season.

In defense, Tite will bet on a formation with David Luiz, who brings experience to the sector, forming a duo with young Cleiton, one of the squad's promises. Cleiton will have a great opportunity to show his service and gain confidence playing alongside a veteran with experience with the Brazilian national team and prominent clubs in Europe. The choice of David Luiz for this match, even with the team being spared, demonstrates the importance of having leadership on the field to guide and organize the defense.

Flamengo has not been able to present good football for some time and doubts about Tite's work have already begun to emerge. For journalist and commentator Gian Oddi, the criticism took a long time to appear, and there is an "unusual generosity" towards the commander.

For the commentator, if it were another coach in Tite's place, without making a star cast surrender, the position of coach would already be in danger and even vacant a long time ago. The journalist still uses Vanderlei Luxemburgo as a comparison to describe the situation.


“We are in the ninth month of this year, Tite started his work last year, and I keep imagining if Vanderlei Luxemburgo was the coach of Flamengo, how much he would get beaten. So I think there is a generosity with Tite that is absolutely unusual”, analyzed Gian Oddi.


GIAN HIGHLIGHTS THAT TITE'S WORK AT FLAMENGO MUST BE CLOSED

Tite will complete one year leading Flamengo, but he continues to experience moments of uncertainty. Even though Rubro-Negro is alive in the three competitions it competes in, the coach is unable to extract better football from the squad, and even with the absences, Gian Oddi says that the coach has to show urgent service.

“ Enough, I'm not saying that Tite should be fired. But you need to look at Flamengo's squad, and I know that the discount has to exist, just look at who is outside Flamengo's team at the moment. But he has a lot of allowance to work with, and of course, he had a lot of problems, but Flamengo goes there and signs the full-back who played with the Juventus shirt for the last ten years. So, we're talking about guys at a very high level”, commented Oddi following criticism from the fans about the football presented.


FLAMENGO'S PERFORMANCE WITH TITE

Since Tite arrived at Mais Querido, in October 2023, he led Rubro-Negro in 67 games, with 40 wins, 12 draws and 15 defeats. In total, 106 goals were scored and 48 conceded.
