The hit the first reinforcement of the middle of the year. The red-black has reached an agreement with Dynamo Moscow, from Russia, and will pay about 12 million euros (R $ 77.5 million) for the Colombian.

Jorge Carrascal is an offensive sock that stands out for the ability to create plays. You can play as much as a classic “10 shirt” as well as half by sides, especially on the left. To better understand how the player can add to Filipe Luís team, he talked to Colombian journalist Jaime Dinas and Brazilian Marina Granziera, who lives in Colombia and covers the country’s football for the “Caracol” channel.
Main characteristics of executional
About the main qualities of Carrascal, Dinas points out that the sock combines speed, mobility and technical capacity to create plays and project themselves to attack. According to him, this is a player who positions himself well to finish and contributes depth in offensive transitions.
– No doubt Flamengo hired a “player”. Carrascal is a very fast player, with excellent mobility in front. He takes advantage of his technical capacity, complemented by his good physical condition, to make fast midfield transitions and passes to attack. The movement capacity makes it beyond a scorer, by their projections, their passes give depth to any team, in this case Flamengo. He is a player who positions himself to score goals. And when it stands to mark, it is efficient and effective in finishing. Flamengo will earn a lot, Brazilian football, as it did with Arias and Richard Ríos, with this new hiring – said Jaime.
In the same line, Granziera states that the player’s main virtue is agility, with the ability to change the rhythm of the game quickly. On the other hand, she points out as a challenge for the 27 -year -old to maintain this performance during the 90 minutes.
– The main quality of the executional is agility. Very agile, very fast, think fast, is I, a player who can quickly change the rhythm of a game. I think his main defect is to be able to keep this pace for 90 minutes, demonstrate that he can be a player to start and make a difference. This is the main defect he has, at least lately, when he has played in the Colombian national team – put the journalist.

Substitute of Arrascaeta?
Fla sought carrascal in the market to be an option to Arrascaeta, the team’s main shipowner. However, both Jaime Dinas and Marina Granziera claim that the Colombian can complement the Uruguayan game, with both players of Red-Black.
-I do not see him as a substitute for Arrascaeta, I see him as a complement. They are modern players, with great technical condition, very good positioning and mobility and easily both can act, and as holders. Undoubtedly, it will benefit Flamengo, who will win in possession, but especially in speed in this midfield transition to attack. Flamengo earns a lot, but also, in the alternative, the Colombian team wins with this hiring of a player who has already shown his quality at River Plate, Ukraine and Russia – analyzed Dinas.
– You can play together, yes. Carrascal, as much as he throws there in the same place, has the ability to camouflage himself, is multipurpose. He can be a good complement of important players, such as Arrascaeta. He has done this in the Colombian team, along with James, even Quinter, who are players of similar features even with Arrascaeta. So you can be a good complement, I think this is critical. Alone he can play in the role, but he can also make a good complement, ”Granziera explained.

Intensity problems
Despite being recognized for the technical quality, Jorge Carrascal is the target of criticism throughout his career because of the low intensity presented at certain times. However, Jaime understands that the 27 -year -old has evolved in this aspect, especially last season.
-No (it is a problem), I believe that the Carrascal, in its last season in Russian football, with Dynamo, has gained intensity, gained the explosion of energy necessary in these midfield transitions to attack. By the way, I am almost sure that the Flamengo football department, the scout, saw it in Carrascal, a player with intensity, because it gained intensity. It is faster physically, it is faster mentally, is a player with great creativity and, on the contrary, will give Flamengo more intensity and depth, ”the journalist said.
Marina, however, admits that the intensity can be a problem for the Colombian midfielder in Flamengo. Even so, he believes Carrascal improves the aspect under the command of Filipe Luís, who trapped by pressure and marking at the opposing ball outlet.
“I think so, I think it can be a problem.” But I think I prefer to see it on the good side, I think he has been going through teams that he didn’t need (have so much intensity). Maybe now, he needed to show Flamengo more than the skills he already has and be part of an established tactical scheme, I think it can be a good time for him to have this concentration, so that he can score more and take this game intensity, that yes, is something that really is missing in it. He is a completely fantastic player, in dribble, in agility, intelligence, but he could be even better if he had more marking, more pressure in his game. Let’s see, he was in a smaller team, let’s see now if with the pressure he will have in Flamengo, if he will be able to deal with it, ”said the presenter.
