Renato promises to do his best to give Flamengo titles in 2011
By From the official website team - in
There will be four chances. In at least one of them, Renato won't allow mistakes. The Flamengo fan knows Flamengo needs titles in 2011. Whether in Rio, Brazil, or South America, winning is the number 11's goal this season. Especially after a trophyless 2010. That's why he promises total dedication starting with the preseason, which is taking place in Londrina.
The player understands the importance of a strong commitment in these first days of training for the rest of the year. According to him, putting in the effort right now is crucial for results on the field in all upcoming competitions.
"We're going to work hard to do well in all four competitions. The important thing is to start the Carioca well and continue in the other championships. Starting from scratch with the group is great. We already know how the group will work. The only thing that will be a factor is our physical form, which isn't yet ideal. Of course, you won't see a team with the stamina to play the full 90 minutes," said the number 11, who is already more than accustomed to the pressure from the Flamengo fans.
"At Flamengo, the pressure is always high. They're a big, popular team with a long tradition. The fans trust our work, and we're already prepared for the pressure. It's a temporary pressure. We don't want to go through what happened last year," he noted.
A possible change in the game plan doesn't scare Renato, who says he's also prepared to play as a possible winger if Vanderlei Luxemburgo needs him.
"I've played on the wing and on the wing, and if necessary, we'll do it. It won't be a problem," he concluded.
