In the first instance, the former forward maintained that “For me it is one of those that has to be renewed. I know that he is highly criticized by Colo Colo fans, but when you see the numbers and statistics, he is one of the most important players in terms of risking and playing”.
Along the same lines, the 1991 Copa Libertadores champion stated that “I know that Colo Colo fans today mention it and bluff it, they whistle at it and disapprove of it, but I think he is still an important player in Colo Colo’s midfield”.
Finally, Patricio Nazario stated that “he plays in a different position, coming from further back, he may have more traffic, he has more things to do, more tasks. Before, he was more advanced in the position behind the 9 and that perhaps allowed him to have more offensive visibility, but in my opinion Colo Gil should renew”.
