Fiorentina manager Stefano Pioli spoke to the press following his team's exciting 3-3 tie against Sampdoria, and his comments were pointed at new viola attacker Luis Muriel, who scored twice against his former team in his Fiorentina debut.
"I don't know for how long Luis didn't play for 90 minutes. His strength is his technical skills in speed, it's normal that at the end he's not able to do it anymore. Did I expect a similar impact? He presented himself well, very determined. He knows the league and other than his quality, that's an advantage. Today he showed his value and needs to continue to do it. It the past, maybe he didn't reach the potential he has. The day he arrived I told him: You're the only one that reminds me of Ronaldo the Phenomenon. I'm lucky to train him."
