Gilberto Mora's First Official Start: Playmaking at 17

I think a lot of people in and outside of the stadium are happy to see Gilberto Mora getting his first official start.

17 years old, but still a lot is expected of him.

What did you think of him today? I try not to measure the player by how old he is, but I can't help watch him play and think he's only 17.

Yeah, he's doing this at 17 years of age.

And you look at the players that Javier Aguirre put around him.

They're not exactly link up players. So it should be more difficult for him to play with these players because that's not his game.

In a game where Javier Aguirre put his 11 to combat physicality, he throws out the 17 year old and he's the playmaker.

He's the catalyst. You saw the goal, the second goal that they scored.

Take a look at how he's transitioning the field and how he's looking around and scanning the field and the weight of the past.

He plays with a different mentality and a different quality than the rest.

Case had said that they haven't been tested.

I don't think they want to be tested. Case, they don't have enough players like this.

They don't have the quality. And that's why they play the way they do.

But when you see a player like Gilberto Mora do what he does, you start thinking to yourself, wow, where did that come from?
