"I always gave Rafa confidence and I have a very good relationship with him. But the coach has to understand the performance during the games. If a player is not performing, another one has to come in."
"I remember a very good conversation with Raphinha in training. He was frustrated and I told him: 'Rafa, you've signed here for five years. Don't worry. Confidence. You're not being natural, but calm.'"
"I understand that the changes didn't help him, but now he's exploded. We already saw a lot of talent in him and I'm very happy, because he's a good guy, a winner, responsible and a leader."
Building confidence in players is essential for their performance. A good relationship between coach and player fosters this confidence. When a player struggles, it is important to consider substitutions. Communication during training can help alleviate frustration. A player’s natural abilities can be hindered by pressure, but with reassurance, they can thrive. Recognizing talent and providing support leads to positive outcomes, as seen in the case of Raphinha, who has shown significant improvement and leadership qualities.
