Ringhio (Gennaro Gattuso)

By Stefanu17, 09-01-2019

Pre-match Italy-Germany, World Championship 2006, responding to a possible yellow card that would have left him out of the final]:

"I would put a signature as big as a house to see Italy in the final even without me. I will not think about the card, because if I do it I do not play as I can. It will be a test of maturity; a test with myself. It seems, however, that the admonition has already given it to me: it's not like I have to put the band of Rambo and go and force it; I'll eat the card. "

Gennaro Gattuso

This phrase resume very well the player, but beware: be patient with him. The first matches I was so disappointed, I really want to sell him istantly. I changed the chem, and the instructions as well, and now I can say that he'll be in my team till the end of the year.

The key to use him at the maximum potential is the position in the pitch and the instructions: he is not a central median able only to intercept the ball to restart the action, he's mainly a surly player, he is super to press and get in the way of the opponent. He defined himself like a "cagnaccio", a chaindog. So ask him to mark the man and not to intercept the ball, trust me. That will change the way he plays, you will have a gladiator with 75% of stamina on the 90th minute.

Pace, dribbling, passing and shooting: the stats don't tell lies, but anyway I cannot say that are so terrible. Same feelings as NIF Kante.

In real soccer teams pray to have a guy like him on the pitch, and if you really like those kind of player you'll appreciate him.

Marking, pressing and interceptions are really good.

Stamina

Strenght, feels better than 84 IG, and he looks stocky and bigger than he actually is

Headers: he rerely win an aerial duel

Of course technical stats, if you expect to play him as Eusebio or Cruyff
