Feidhlim Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Does anybody know if he is any good? Standard youtube vid I remember Benteke being reported as pretty average before he signed. Wait and see I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 How can you be close to agreeing a fee anyway? Does anyone remember 'Theme Park' where you sit opposite another guy to negotiate and you had to make the handshake before the plate of biscuits ran out? Remember it well Brings back some memories. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nazvfc Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Does anybody know if he is any good? Standard youtube vid I remember Benteke being reported as pretty average before he signed. Wait and see I guess. That is par for the course on here (and to be fair on other forums) - let's hold fire and see - of the more expensive signings we have done fairly well it's the cheapo lower leagues (domestic) where we have been burned (in some peoples eyes).

Wainy316 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Does anybody know if he is any good? Standard youtube vid I remember Benteke being reported as pretty average before he signed. Wait and see I guess. I remember him being described as pretty average about two months after he signed. That goal against Norwich and his double against Swindon got him rolling.

Is that Tony Pulis letting Paul Jewell go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omariqy Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Looks like he was to be Gil's replacement. Good news that TS changed his mind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Folski Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 3rd signing they've made that was strongly linked with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packoman Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 I don't think there were ever any plans to sell Gil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isa Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Obviously if we really wanted him, it would've happened a while ago. I agree with Omar, Gil working his way back into contention rendered this deal superfluous. Sherwood's comments on Gil sort of hinted at that also.

omariqy Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 I don't think there were ever any plans to sell Gil. I heard that we had 2 Spanish clubs lined up for him to go to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaglint Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Fair enough but I still hope to see another incoming wide forward/winger/attacking midfielder even with the re-emerge of Gil. If TS goes off Gil again or we get an injury then N'Zogbia is straight back in the team. Maybe that is Praet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
