Michael Cox from ESPN discusses "the duality of Giovani dos Santos."

Three years ago, Giovani dos Santos signed for Tottenham from Barcelona for 5 million euros, with an additional 4 million euros based on appearances. Yet, Dos Santos has only featured in 10 league games for Spurs and has been loaned out on three occasions. Eight of those 10 games have been as a substitute, and he's been withdrawn on both starts, so has played a total of just 223 league minutes, the equivalent of two-and-a-half complete games.
That is all the more incredible when you consider that he played 36 percent of his minutes in his final season at Barcelona, where he ended his spell with a hat trick against Murcia
With all the challenges at the club level, Gio is proving to be a star in the biggest matches of his career.  Take a few minutes to read Michael Cox's article and leave a comment. Do you feel Gio is the real deal?
