The biggest worry for me is that most teams fans overrate their players, especially teams lower down in the table. Most Forest fans that I’ve seen think he’s overrated.
For a bit of balance they are different price points.I also distinctly remember juve fans rejoicing and celebrating selling us kulusevski and bentancur. I hope we get a similar outcome here too !
I just have a nagging feeling that this one is driven by a little more than just Ange wanting him, it's also a little that he's homegrown and that they might be willing to take a player or two from us.If Ange wants him, we have to trust he’ll make it work
I guess people watched how instrumental he was in helping Sevilla getting to the final of the Europa league last season, putting in very good performances against the likes of Juventus along the way, and thinking it might be worth giving him a chance to actually adapt to the PL before writing him off. Considering how good Isak has looked for Newcastle despite being thin there’s no reason to think that Gil couldn’t adapt given time. Technically he is very good and from a skill set would suit the role of an Ange winger on paper. Maybe he ends up not making good on his potential but considering we have already paid the money he should be given a chance imo.So did he do his hammy yesterday or not?
Also I don’t know why so many are pro Gill. Early signs for me is he’s not built for the PL. looks too powder puff. If we could use him in a deal
Or get our money back for him or do it.
This to me is a bigger concern. Regardless of whether I rate the player or not, if Ange wants him then fine, but if it's being pushed by Levy then it's a worry.Im not sold. More DL doing his stuff. Not sure everyone agrees.

When you say everyone do you mean those at the club?Im not sold. More DL doing his stuff. Not sure everyone agrees.
If it’s being driven by Levy, that probably means it’s being driven by Paratici.This to me is a bigger concern. Regardless of whether I rate the player or not, if Ange wants him then fine, but if it's being pushed by Levy then it's a worry.
Herc said Ange rates him earlier in the week.This to me is a bigger concern. Regardless of whether I rate the player or not, if Ange wants him then fine, but if it's being pushed by Levy then it's a worry.
Second fastest in the league last season behind Walker, according to this...
We’ve already got promising but unproven wingers in Solomon and Gil — we don’t need more squad players at the winger position. We certainly don’t need to spend the fourth highest transfer fee in the history of the club on such a player.What I'm confused about is if we'd been linked with him last summer, as a 21-year old fresh out of a 19-goal season in the Championship, most people on here would be frothing at the mouth at the prospect of us signing him. He scored half the number of goals (and the same number as Trossard, who we were linked with) in a team that escaped relegation by 4 points in the following season, but now isn't exciting? I'm still not 100% convinced he's who we should be going for but I think there's some unfair criticism on here.
If Postecoglou wants him then who cares what 'we' pay to get him?If we pay £50m for him we've well and truly had our pants pulled down. I'd be disappointed at anything over
£25-30m all in.
He certainly isn't a ST for me anyway.
