PompeyVillan Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 He doesn't want to play for Aston Villa. When he did he had one or two moments where he showed his quality, but mostly was a disappointment. Sell him, let him move on for a nothing. Whatever, he's not an option for us anymore. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael118 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 (edited) Another assist for Gil last night in his return game from injury with Deportivo. That's 4 assists for him now in his last 5 appearances putting him equal 8th in La Liga for total number of assists with only a fraction of the total minutes played compared to nearly every player ahead of him and around him.

HolteExile Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Good. Hopefully we'll get something approximating a reasonable fee for him. Either from Deportivo or someone else. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Of we're still in the Championship next season I'd have him back in a heartbeat. Him and Grealish in front of our new and improved midfield and behind Kodjia would be superb. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many times did he do anything of note in a villa shirt? Where were these stats in a villa shirt? Sometimes you have to accept its not meant to be, even if you've fallen in love with his picture! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyC Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 not this thread again. Gil was shite for us, he had a couple of decent moments but overall he was weak. Let it go people 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Wasn't good enough and had no interest in helping us. Hopefully we didn't agree a fee for the end of the loan. If he continues to do well we want an increase in fee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many times have any of our players done anything of note in a Villa shirt over the last few years? It was never the ability of our players that was the problem. I've always said it was the managers and probably other issues as well but our managerial appointments have been horrendous.

Popular Post TreeVillan Posted January 29, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted January 29, 2017 I'd take him back, he was surrounded by shite when he was here last. He was the only one who ever moved into space whilst everybody else decided to let their markers have an easy day at the office. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginko Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 (edited) Can I just save everyone some time here: Gil scores or assists for Deportivo He's class, our team was shite when he was with us; or He's shit, too lightweight, never did anything in a Villa shirt of note He scored that cracker against Bournemouth in the cup and looked good other times but never really got many chances; or He had plenty of chances and didn't take them, Grealish is better He's doing the business for Deportivo; or Different league, more time on the ball, less physical But those stats tho; or Didn't want to help us when relegated Have him back in a heartbeat; or **** him, sell him Ad infinitum, at least until we sell him. That about cover it? Edited January 29, 2017 by Ginko 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he continues to do well we want an increase in fee I hope a sale price was agreed. It appears that most fees to buy agreed at the start of a loan are priced on the assumption that the player will perform reasonably well during the loan period. I'll be surprised if Gill performs above 'reasonably well'. Even given his latest assist, I don't think it's much more than should be expected from a player in his position. Keeping Gill or any player that doesn't want to play for us shouldn't be an option, in my opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 after watching the highlights I be disappointed if he didnt get an assist for that since he had a bout 5 yards free to cross the ball to a striker who had no defender around him for about 4 yards. was dreadful defending what i did notice from the highlights was a poor attempt to track his runner who strolled past him from left back which opened the space for the first goal. that left back was Antonio Luna lets bring him back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
