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

Rodrigo Mora played this season in a position that was not natural for him in midfield. Can he play in another one next year? “Rodrigo’s development involved two different tactical demands; we are talking about 10 to 20 meters on the pitch, with a big difference in offensive 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 the difference is that he is a champion player, 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 took 5% from each individual, but what we gained collectively is something for which everyone would gladly give up those individual 5% again in order to reach the collective level. If you ask everyone what they think was the secret of this team’s success, they will all say the same: the team, the squad and the spirit of this group.”
