Abdia: "The 82 games I played affected me, I had moments that I was also without energy and it was a little harder to recover. But it's part of the sport and it's part of it - you want to play 82 games, and I wanted to do that especially after the injury I suffered.
"In the second half of the season I had more opportunity with the ball, more opportunity to produce for others and I enjoyed it, I enjoyed being there and helping my team win big games. From here I just keep working hard, I know I have a lot to improve and I believe I will do better later. .

"I'm aware of the things I need to improve, I'm not naive. There are also things I want to preserve. In what needs to be improved I see my video, I see all the games. I know ahead of my role in the team next season what I want to improve. Everyone knows what I need to improve, everyone sees the games.
"The first thing I will do in the country? See the friends, I must. Family first of all. And maybe eat something good."
