[Albion] "It’s like the old Billy Gilmour we’ve got back."

[The Fits]

Did Mac put in as consistent a performance as that?

 

[Weststander]

Playing the best football of his career by a long way, other than England v Scotland. He never produced the goods for the Chavs in the heat of PL battles.

Most weeks, a brilliant player for Argentina and us.

 

[BevBHA]

So graceful to watch. Has amazing technique on everything he does. If you had a text book with a page for each skill in football (passing, dribbling, tackling etc) he is that to a tee

Different players but I disagree. Mac would try passes that didn't come off. He'd often have spells in games where it wasn't quite happening. Gilmour has basically been perfect on the ball.

 

[StonehamPark]

He’s very quickly become my favourite current player.

Really excited about watching him play every week.

 

[CaptainDaveUK]

Very good again today, our squad is looking immense.

 

[Albion in the north]

Ive said on many a social media post about AliMac leaving, that BG is our replacement. That ball for Undavs goal against Newc asstle was sublime.

Im even going to say that hes an upgrade. Always wanting the ball and his passing is sublime.

MacA ran PL games for 2 seasons, tough as nails, mobility, 10/10 tackler, driving us forward, creating, an eye for goal and finally we had a pen taker.

Argentina were transformed in their latter 6 WC games when he was brought in, running the show with Messi.

Gilmour’s a Pirlo esque playmaker and looking the real deal.

 

[StonehamPark]

I’ll probably create a post/thread closer to the time, but for us BG fans (and/or partial Scots), Scotland have a Euro qualifier this coming Friday which I imagine he’d feature in.

Based on today's performance, we're not going to miss Macalister

Is that a different skill set ?
Play percentage s consistently
Or be able to see the pass And try it ?
Love Wee Billy Gilmour BTW
So by No means a dig

 

[dstanman]

What gets me with Billy he is always wanting the ball, and if not he is pointing to where it should be played. At the moment has to be one of the first on the teamsheet.

That’s the idea I suppose. World leading recruitment, coaching and man-management.

Albion, Benfica and Borussia Dortmund all have something special going on player recruitment and development.

 

[sagaman]

Another fantastic performance. Best player of season after four games

Absolutely no way does Gilmour just play % passes.

 

[Guinness Boy]

So harsh on him not being MOTM. A hat trick scorer is always going to get that honour, yet he ran the game today. Absolutely brilliant

 

[Pevenseagull]

Thanks Chelsea


you

f***ing

mugs

 

[Bakero]

Just doesn't give the ball away.

And let's remember he's just turned 22. Two and half years younger than Ally Mac and only 5 months older than Moi.

 

[Fergus the Schnoodle]

Most Chelsea fans loved BG - came into the side and was MoM against Liverpool. I’ll always remember Roy Keane waxing lyrically about him. Norwich was a disaster - a Ferrari competing in a motocross competition. Tuchel favoured experienced players and never gave him a chance. I do know that every Chelsea fan I know thinks they’ve dropped a bollock there.
