Since taking over, coach Rogério Lourenço has set up Flamengo with two formations: two and three defenders. Working hard during the offseason, the Flamengo squad still doesn't know how they will line up against Botafogo on July 14th, in the return of the Brasileirão, but some players have already expressed their preferences.
Perhaps because he plays in defense, Ronaldo Angelim approved of Flamengo's three-man defense in recent official matches, despite the loss to Goiás in the match preceding the Brasileirão World Cup break. According to him, this way the team feels more protected and can provide greater security in the attack.
"My opinion has always been clear. I prefer to play with three defenders, but that's just my preference. I know Rogério is the one who decides that. Without a doubt, we'll be prepared for whatever the coach thinks is best for Flamengo. I think opting for three defenders makes the marking better. It makes things a little easier. Against Goiás, we had three defenders and played well. Due to a game situation, we ended up losing," explained Angelim.
And to be able to fulfill all the obligations that will be given to them by coach Rogério Lourenço, the players are dedicating themselves a lot to the physical work carried out during the off-season.
"The important thing is to arrive well-trained and in good physical shape when the Brasileirão returns. That way, we can play well. This period we have to improve our form is very important. I have no doubt that the team will arrive well-trained and prepared for another great campaign," concluded Angelim.
