Whilst I have my doubts, at the moment at least, about Lambert's abilities overall, when he has been able to spend decent money, in Aston Villa terms, he has done well, so if he wants to buy Gil for that sort of money I would be hopeful that Gil would be a good buy.
If we ever get a new owner we should give him 100 mill in the transfer window and then sack him as soon as he's spent it : )
