Really feel for Gil. Harry overhit the penalty he won and then moments later, Harry proceeds to channel his inner Emerson Royal and overhit what looked to be an easy cross for Bryan. If I'm Conte, I'm praising Gil to the hilt for showing energy and causing immediate problems for Frankfurt.

Hopefully this means Conte will trust Gil a little more and sub him on, when it makes sense to do so.

I thought he looked good tonight. Very exciting player with quick feet. Once he bulks up a bit I really think we ha e a good player on our books.

As fresh legs brought on against a crap side that's chasing the game and playing with 10 men - good option.

Whether he can prove himself worthy of a longer term future here - still very much TBC

There is a player in there somewhere will just take a while to get it out.

One minute Ricky from Sunday league next minute he’s Ricky Villa, lovely dribble lad

Again another one that our fans have just decided to abuse for no real reason.

When he came on last night there was GIL YOU ARE A PUSSY GIL YOU ARE SHIT!

Then the pass through to him he messes it up…..fans fuck off back to Spain etc then he works his nuts off wins it back sends defenders into a spin ……..suddenly the same fans what a player he has great potential……2 minutes later he loses the ball im sick of this prick ?!

never in my life have I seen an atmosphere so toxic to players as I did last night whatever happened to backing our own?

I remember years ago when fans would love the freunds,Atouba’s etc and the guys we were raging at now are 10x the players maybe a little love will help

Thankfully the match thread doesnt represent the majority of the fan base!

Gil is being held to a higher bar due to how much we paid (not his fault obvs). Put whatever reasonable price you want on lamela and the range is 30-35mil outlay. If he was an academy prospect or come to us as a 10-12mil signing there'd be more patience with what we see from him. At the moment its not crazy to feel we could have spent that amount of money having a more immediate impact on our squad.

He looks very lively but so raw, hopefully we can mould that into a productive player, preferably soon.
