  WINGER Lander Gabilondo is determined to make a success of himself in English football even if he is not offered a new deal with Swindon Town.

Without.

Could be another player whose playing style might be better suited to League 1 than the kick & rush of League 2.  I wouldn't write him off yet, despite the obvious competition down that wing.

You may well be right, but unless he changes his attitude, he will not be on the Swindon roller coaster

Has Di Canio mentioned his attitude?

I know he singled out Esajas and Kerrouche in one article - didnt think he mentioned Gabilondo though??

I would. Always happy to be proved wrong though.

It doesn't take much working out. PDC has made it clear people who don't want to play for the club will either be booted out of the club or wont play.

Di Canio has also made it clear he will name and shame players.

He hasnt done so with Gabilondo? perhaps he just isnt good enough - the same way Comazzi wasnt, so was let go, fuck all to do with his attitude.

I'd sign him up til January.

He got a medal did he not.

I reckon he'll get 6 months

No point in keeping him IMHO, unless Holmes doesn't sign or Ritchie leaves. Nothing against Gabby, but use the wages elsewhere.

I'll be very surprised if PdC keeps him on.  From the limited amount I've seen of him, I've thought he was good and certainly better than Rooney.

Gabi couldn't cement a place in L2, I doubt he'll come back.

Can't see him returning to us and we can do better than him anyway, even though he had a few good games he looked very disinterested on occassions.

How can you say he wasn't good enough? Believe what you want to believe, but he played well when he came on, so I don't buy your chain of thought on that one. ,

not needed or good enough

I didn't see many games but when he came on against Leicester in the cup he barely looked like a footballer.

I cant say he wasnt good enough but perhaps thats what Paolo thought, hence why he wasnt picked.

Again, the same point - if it was attitude, he'd have been named and shamed.

I've seen games where he was good and others when he was bad. But if he plays like he did when he came on against Leicester, we'd be better off with 10 men

without

and if he played like he did against City he'd never be dropped. he's a winger - wingers are meant to be inconsistent. He's no more or less consistent than Holmes or possibly Rooney. I wish he had a left foot though.

Wingers aren't meant to be inconsistent. They just seem to be more so.
