He's climbing out of the flop house for sure.
Also - what is up with that whole point at himself after he assists other players thing?
yeah i noticed that - i think because of the language barrier he was signing, 'you assisted mine i assisted you' - like a back at you - who knows i'm just happy they're starting to click.
Close the thread gentleman.
Climbing out? More like setting it on fire and walking away with his middle fingers up.

Don't close this thread! Every goal he scores makes me love it even more.

That flick was beautiful. Great run to get into a threatening position, and topped off with an excellent finish.
Gil is going to score 20 next season. And a number of us who all argued in this thread earlier all look f-ing stupid!
This thread goes to prove that you need patience with new players, especially ones who are coming from foreign lands.
Good for you Gilberto, you are a good and classy footballer who deserves his wage. And nobody blames you for taking a few months to adapt to the MLS, its a difficult league to come into.
But guys let's not forget how long it took him to finally get his groove. It took way too long and we were too patient and we should have shipped him off at the beginning of the season when he was still getting used to his new surroundings and coming back to full fitness.
The end.
Yea, where are they?
Hey Canary10, that beer we put on Gilberto vs Urruti isn't looking like a runaway anymore.
It's looking a lot closer.

That's odd. I don't recall most people being unfair with him or placing unreasonable demands on him as you seems to be implying.
Seriously, guys we're all happy Gilberto is starting to produce. But let's not get into talk of high prophetic accuracy here.

Great goal, he showed quality on the finish and I hope we see more to come.
I do have to laugh at all the late comers who've misrepresented the earlier debate just so they can look like they know what the fuck they're taking about.
This.
But what about that breakaway he had???? Is everyone forgetting the breakaway he missed???? He's still a flop!
Easy copout when some of you were all over his ass earlier and now acting like you weren't.

Cop out haha. Easy tiger. Read what he wrote, and what I quoted.
I think Gilberto is a dick. I'm glad he's helping the team but I don't like him personally.
You've mentioned this many times and always seem to make it known that you think he's a dick. I cannot even begin to think why you think so. Is he too Brazilian?
Still say he scores 10.
I don't know what that means.
Wasn't meant to be serious. Your personal dislike of him still remaines a mystery.
I'll keep that in mind "guy from the internet I don't know." He flops, and he threw a hissy fit on the field twice this year. That's enough for me.

He could very well pull that off. Actually, we're pretty much done playing the top teams of the league for this season, so we may see a few more goals from the likes of Jackson, Osorio, and Oduro as well.

i don't see what is unlikeable about Gilberto at all. Seems to me like a guy who plays with a lot of passion and gives it 100% all the time. I am not sure what 'hissy fits' are being referred to as i have missed a couple games this year, but if one of them was the fight with JD which lead to his first goal, then i will have to disagree as that was awesomely epic.
