a bit disappointed Gil has gone.
There are bigger priorities than losing him, right now.
RDM has made it pretty clear that reducing the size of the squad and wage bill is a priority right now so this is very understandable if it helps path the way for new signings that will contribute more to the team.
Oh, I agree and understand.
I just hope we are not letting anyone go just to get the numbers down.
Yes, he is/was lightweight, but he can play, and isn't a total wastrel like a lot of others we all want to see gone.

A little bit of a shame. At the beginning of last season I thought we might be shaping up to finally see the best of him but then it never really happened.

I was looking forward to seeing Gill develop, but for me he became an all fart no shit type of player. Pushed off the ball far too easy too.

Yes. He could be a cracking player.

I won't. One of the worst players I've ever seen in a Villa shirt. Bag of shite.

Probably a great player to have when you're 3-0 up and you can showboat. But we're never 3-0 up.

I'm just pleased we've found takers for these players. Let's face it, their stock isn't exactly high right now is it?

Sanchez never passed to one of his own men once.  Nice hair, but thanks for very little.

Gil move in Marca
http://www.marca.com/futbol/deportivo/2016/07/20/578f989fe2704e0b508b45f1.html

Translated by Google:
El Deportivo and has tied his third offensive player. After almost close Marlos arrivals Moreno and Florin Andone, the technical secretariat of the club opted for Carles Gil. The player arrives on loan from Aston Villa and Deportivo reserves a purchase option.Before reaching the coruñés club, Carles Gil was formed in the quarry of Valencia, the club where he remained until 2012, year in which he went to Elche. After a brief return to Mestalla and a fleeting step by Aston Villa, arrives at Deportivo.

Gil, Veretout, Sanchez, Guzan, Sinclair potentially away then. Light in midfield unless we keep hold of Gana.

Player has linked an article on our interest on his Facebook page.

Guy seems to be more mobile than most of what we've got, scored a lot of goals and isn't unreasonable at £10 million. Worth a punt.
