Gila's only had one good season, but he's 21 and he's Italian. Tristan is 28, and IMO if we don't snap up Gilardino he's gonna rip Serie A apart for another team
I would love to see Gilardino here, and if we don't get him now there's the chance we'll lose out on a massive talent. it's just my preference that he won't REPLACE trez. but he could partner him or something
and I also disagree with people saying that he's BETTER than tristan
