After criticism, Tite will continue following his convictions at Flamengo and was supported by the board

Pressure in Gávea

Flamengo is coming off a draw in the Brazilian Championship against Palmeiras and a defeat to Bolívar in the Libertadores da América. What these matches have in common is coach Tite’s choice to spare players, even in matches considered important.

Given the decision and the result, the work presented on the field was enough for his stay at Rubro-Negro to be challenged. Because of this, the board tried to position itself internally and guarantee the commander’s permanence.

And whenever a Mais Querido coach chooses to spare players, the shadow of Jorge Jesus reappears like magic. To bury this issue once and for all, Marcos Braz made a point of bringing data to show all the coaches who played for Rubro-Negro did the same, but each in their own way.

Behind-the-scenes movements

The board’s internal concern is that all this negative mobilization after the latest results would impact the coach. However, Tite is very sure of the work he has been doing at Flamengo and even in the face of criticism, he is focused on the club’s evolution.

It is worth noting that Rubro-Negro is currently the runner-up in the Brazilian Championship, with the same number of points as the leader, in addition to being second in Group E, behind only Bolívar, who opened a five-point lead.

Management trusts the technician’s work

Tite actively participated in the reformulation of the squad, managing to reorganize the defense, which was one of the most delicate parts of the team. With these changes being rewarded with Carioca winning undefeatedly.

In this way, management believes that the work of the technical committee can only grow and give Flamengo more titles. Because of this, the player is internally supported and has peace of mind to carry out his work.
