Diniz praises Ganso’s good form at Fluminense: “he is an example for us”

The good phase of Paulo Henrique Ganso was discussed at the coach’s press conference Fernando Diniz after the 2-0 victory this Saturday (22), against Athletico-PRat the Maracanã. Increasingly participative in the creation of offensive plays, Ganso has also shown a more effective participation in the defense, without the ball. In the match against Athletico, the number 10 was the Fluminense player who made the most tackles.

For coach Fernando Diniz, the number 10 is living the best moment of his career and his contribution to the team, being supportive in marking, makes the player more complete.

“The Ganso never ran backwards. Even when it started there at Santos when it was featured. We have platitudes that some players believe and end up harming their careers, that ace doesn’t run, shirt 10. When guys stop running, they harm the team. Today’s Ganso is perhaps the best of his career, if you ask me. Genius doesn’t age, and it’s only more apparent when it’s sympathetic. He is supportive all the time, with the simple people at the club, with the younger people. It benefits the whole and ends up benefiting”, commented Fernando Diniz.

“He is an example for us and the defensive system benefits a lot, as with Cano, Arias and Keno help and are helped by the system. The ball does not fail to pass them and to pass them, everyone has to help.” – completed the coach.

In the current season, Ganso has already scored a goal and contributed four assists and was important in winning the Guanabara Cup It is Carioca Championship.
