The Ivory Coast international was specifically requested by Garcia this summer after their time together at Lille.
“Gervinho is an unpredictable player and he is difficult to stop,” the tactician stated to Sfide. “There are not that many players who can dribble like Gervinho, he is rare.”
The forward has instantly impressed with three goals in eight League games after a problematic spell at Arsenal.
“Garcia is the only Coach who has helped me to grow,” the 26-year-old stated in the same TV programme.
“Scoring twice against Bologna was a beautiful and intense moment,” he added. “I’m happy that I was able to share that experience with my fans in my stadium.”
The player though is set to miss the weekend game against Udinese because of an injury he picked up against Napoli last Friday.
