Former Barcelona defender Edmilson is happy to see Paulinho settle so quickly at the Nou Camp.
Paulinho has shone since his August arrival from Guangzhou Evergrande.
And Edmilson says: "I knew him when he was playing for Corinthians. He had a bad experience in Tottenham.
"Then he joined China and found the national team. In the last matches with Tite (the Brazilian coach), he's played very well.
"He is very powerful physically and will be very useful to Barça this season."
