I have this picture of ganso beeing an incredibly gifted, but slow/lazy player. But extremely good in the right team when fit
that knee, i didnt knew it was that bad
He is gifted indeed. He's got that old school style going on, extremely technical but slower. Not sure he'd fit anywhere else but Serie A.
And you're right, he is lazy. Pirlo might be slow but he runs for 90 minutes back and forth, he's all over. Ganso is the opposite of that. Even Seedorf said so.
Santos' president once said there's no permanent treatment for what he has. We have to take it with a pinch of salt though, when he said that he was quite angry for the whole soap opera saga involving him (the player) and the club that was going on for months, and he also had just sold the player. The doctors denied that his injury was irreversible.
He's been doing good lately, not as good as he was before the injury but he could get there, maybe.
