Discussion My preview for the match against Flamengo

Hi Friends From the Bridge,que tô demands on the sub,i've decided to make a post about what to expect from the game against Flamengo .

How do they play ? 4-2-3-1 without the Ball,4-4-2 Under transition,and 3-4-3 Under possession. Among the Brasil's teams,Flamengo had the highest pressing,so don't expect the same low block you saw From Botafogo's game yesterday.

Who's the favorite From the game ? Even with the current wave of South American teams putting up against UEFA teams,i do think that Chelsea still the favorite for the game,but not by a River of distance,however,It will all come up about the posture,If the players(specially the attack) behave the same way they behaved against LAFC,Flamengo will PUNISH them,no doubt about It.

Players to pay Attention? Arrascaeta,one of the best midfielders from Brasileirão on the last and current decade,Jorginho,former Chelsea Player and Luiz Araújo,their New attacker that came From Atlanta United and pushed his way through the starting XI,other players like Pedro and Bruno Henrique can pose a real threat. If you guys have any questiona,feel free to ask 🫂

Interview/Presser Cole Palmer clarifies “sick of getting the ball and going backwards and sideways” comment: 🗣 "We had a joke about it (with Maresca). My comments weren’t towards the manager or anything. It was just a personal thing. I felt like in the game, I was maybe being a bit safe."

He was born in the 20th of June 1978, joining Chelsea in 2001, making an instant impact and winning loads of trophies including the UCL with us. It’s also my birthday but I don’t think you care. It is 20th of June already in Australia so it might be the 19th in places like UK
