Part 4/8:
The conversation leads to a critical analysis of Tite's tenure. The systematic style he adopted—what many describe as an orthodox positional play—restricted Flamengo's vibrant attackers, leaving them chained to predictable patterns. Tite's insistence on rigid placement and rhythm often resulted in lethargy, lacking the offensive spontaneity that the squad is renowned for.
In contrast, Felipe Luiz encourages freedom and creativity within the squad. By allowing players like Bruno Henrique to roam, switching positions between flank and center, they tap into their innate talents to construct dynamic offensive plays. The staggering contrast invites enlightening discourse: Was Tite's methodology simply outdated in the face of evolving global football trends?
