villan-scott Posted January 13, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted January 13, 2015 Not only did we sign a creative midfielder, we signed a Spanish creative midfielder. I think, having turned off Taylor Swift, I can hear the sound of a horseman's trumpet. And he has a beard! All hail Carles Gil! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Very happy with this, I like the fact that Sanchez will be able to help him settle. I wonder if he had a lot of input into convincing him to come here and recommending him to Lambert. Either way I'm impressed that the club continues to find deals like this. Let's hope he follows in the steps of Silva and Mata and makes it in the PL. Now we just need to move onto a proper winger and anything else as a bonus.

Rob182 Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 People stop bitching you realize we could have signed no one like we did last season right? Actually considering our fans that's probably what we deserve.Stop bitching, will you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) Getting my stock quotes ready: "Carles Gil proves Lambert is not fit for purpose" "Carles Gil proves Lambert is a shrewd businessman who spots talent on a restricted budget" "Carles Gil? More like like Carles still a waste of money! Am I right?!" Either way, this is an exciting signing and I hope will solve an existing problem. Welcome, Carles.

Brumstopdogs Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Best of luck to Gil and hope he gives us the creative spark we badly need. His goalscoring record isn't great so IMO we'll still be relying on others to score but hopefully he'll get his fair share. Is he any relation to Jesus?

Neil Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 This is a dig at all players, but they really have given up on even trying to hide the fact they're just rehashing your everyday cliché quotes now haven't they?"Once I knew that this club was interested in me I wanted to join," he said. Does make me laugh, well either way it's a positive signing for me as I just don't think we can get any worse than they are...anything to give us a different approach.

Khizzy Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Welcome Carles! Do we only ever sign Spanish players that have a name that is either Carlos or Carles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted January 13, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted January 13, 2015 I do fear that even with a creative player in our team, the lack of movement from others will make it difficult to create. Lambert should have our entire squad focusing on attacking movement in training now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
