Thought he looked okay when he came on today. A few nice touches in and around the box.

Not sure about the hair mind.

Reckon he’ll start on Tuesday?

If he had kept the haircut Hackney could have just wore his shirt and played.

He should start on Tuesday or the decision to pay such a sizable compensation is baffling.

Looked decent when he came on.

Plot twist, it was actually Hackney, he's dyed his hair.

He did look ok
Would be surprised if he starts, but good luck to him if he does

Thought he did well for his short time on the pitch.

You can’t really miss him can you.

I agree I think his brief cameo today means he’s nailed on for some game time at Exeter

He looked to have something about him. I'm suprised by his complete lack of any remote game time. You'd expect him to be at least in and around the bench.

Brentfords U23 player of the year. I guess still a massive step up to champo level. Yet thought we'd see more of him. I guess maybe not doing enough behind the scenes in training etc.

On 4 July 2023, Gilbert transferred to Championship club Middlesbroughand signed a four-year contract. Though he was signed as a free agent, the club was required to pay a compensation fee of "around" £1 million, due to his age

See you knew he was a good player
Seriously I'm pleased for him, as he looked so disappointed when told to sit down at the last home match when others were brought on
Hope the assist is his new start at Boro - and he gets a bit more game time
If he's not good enough then we at least need to give him the chance to prove otherwise
