Pragmatic futebol always trumps that Bullsh*t Brincadeira Santos encourages their players to do.

Corinthians wins this 2-1 global.

Corinthians will proabbly play for a 1-0 and then 0-0. lol

My prediction is 0-0 on the 1st leg, then Santos 2 x 0 on the 2nd leg.

Boca x Santos on the final!!

So, apparently Ganso is almost sure to play tomorrow against Corinthians!!

As a Santos fan I am happy because that will make us better, but I'm also wary, because the club/himself might be risking a very rushed recovery that might eventually lead to another injury at some point soon. And I want him to be 100% at the Olympics and also for the rest of the Brasileirão.

by Catracho Wed Jun 13, 2012 11:04 pm

Actually uhhhh he's out for this game. Ganso will only be ready for the 2nd leg.. but I'm not too worried. He's looked awful lately. Maybe its his lack of mobility, lack of tracking back, and slow decision making on the ball thats made him a little bit of a liability and has made Oscar take over his role in the NT.

by Catracho Wed Jun 13, 2012 11:14 pm

BREAKING NEWS: Ganso is cleared to play for 45 minutes. Up to Muricy if he is gonna start and then be subbed or come in the second half.

lol... This is desperate.

by Ganso Wed Jun 13, 2012 11:16 pm

ganso will make you bite your tongue on these 2 legs Chaka

All that shows is that the rest of Santos midfielders are scrubs.

Like it was mentioned, Ganso is able to get by at Santos because he has two defensive mids that run like crazy and are great at stealing the ball.

is much more mobile and combative than Ganso, who seems to think others have to mark/run for him. There is a reason they don't 'make' players like him anymore: players who don't run have no place in the modern game. And there's nothing romantic about a slow player like him standing around nowadays, despite what the old timers

Ganso mostly disappears. It doesn't take watching him much to see that his movement is a problem. The technical aspect of his game is excellent. When given space he does very well. But what good does it do if he can't free up against tough opposition? He probably won't be as technical as Ganso, but his better movement plus versatility on offense and defense may end up being his trump card.

he is not a player that constantly contributes with the play. He lacks movement without the ball, that is a big flaw of his

what Ganso does not do. And that is movement without the ball and pressure on the ball when Brasil loses possession. Ganso is too much of a stationary player.

Ganso is able to get by at Santos because he has two defensive mids that run like crazy and are great at stealing the ball.

This sums up the current Ganso... enjoy.
