Farioli: “Rodrigo Mora? This season, we got 5% from everyone, but…” | OneFootball

Rodrigo Mora played this season in a midfield position that was not natural to him. Could he play in another one next year? “Rodrigo’s development involved two different tactical demands; we are talking about 10 to 20 metres on the pitch, with a big difference in attacking and defensive requirements. If you ask me whether the [tactical] system puts him in his ideal position, I will honestly say no, but I think his work, dedication and curiosity to develop and to be a team player made the difference in improving him, and today I believe he is more complete than before. He has not lost and will never lose his skills and qualities. Perhaps he showed better numbers in terms of goal contributions last season, but this season he has the distinction of being a champion, of being part of a team that achieved historic success, that wrote an unforgettable page in this club’s history, and that applies to everyone. The main lesson from this season is that we probably got 5% out of each individual, but what we got collectively is something for which everyone would gladly give up those individual 5% again to reach the collective outcome. If you ask everyone what they think was behind this team’s success, they will all say the same thing: the team, the squad and the spirit of this group.”
