I don't think his passing is so great that it negates how lightweight he is.

I feel that he just is not what we needed... We seem to have made the bizarre decision to switch the formation to give him two minders to compensate while losing the #10 link that we haven't really replaced.

I cannot think of a formation that gets all out best players and Gilmour on the pitch.

Sure his passing looks good but I don't think he's created anything yet.

I'd rather we'd done the compensating for Vrancic who we have away.

I'm sure Gilmour will turn out great but I dont like us being his work experience.
