Updated. Croinha was a player much compared to Gildo, so I compared them. Gildo was more intelligent in attack than Croinha, and there is no arguing that Gildo was a much better header. I interpret Croinha as a better finisher btw, and stepped in the box much more than Gildo, Aggression was possibly his greatest attribute. He was also described as a strong player and a warrior on the field. He was certainly one of the greatest strikers in Ceará's history along with Gildo and Mozart.
