Rodrigo took to Instagram on Wednesday afternoon to issue a rallying cry to Leeds United fans ahead of perhaps the most crucial few days in the club's season.
The Whites find themselves in 16th place, just two points ahead of Burnley in 18th place, but the Lancashire side have games in hand over Jesse Marsch's side. This makes picking up points vital for Leeds and they now come into a period of four days where they face both Aston Villa and Norwich City at Elland Road, knowing they have an opportunity they must not miss.
Last Saturday they put on an improved performance under Marsch but fell to a disappointing 1-0 defeat, after Kasper Schmeichel won man-of-the-match for keeping the Whites at bay, whilst Harvey Barnes took the only Leicester chance of note.
Rodrigo's rallying cry acknowledged that the players know they need to fight for points now though, as he shared a picture of the post-game huddle which Marsch organised. He called on the fans to help the players respond, writing: "The legend of Leeds United Football Club in almost 103 years of history is the sum of hundreds of players and dozens of managers, but where really lies our greatness is in the power of our fans and the city that we proudly represent in a football pitch.
"This is our responsibility. We always have you in mind and we will deliver our best. No doubts and no excuses. We need Elland Road. MOT ALAW."
