Just read this interview with the goalkeeper, found it quite interesting reading, you can't use quotes from it but you can follow the link for yourself... http://gills365.co.uk/the-gills365-interview-paulo-gazzaniga? I haven't been to any of the pre season friendlies, so would also be interested in some views on him as he has signed for us... http://gills365.co.uk/exclusive-paulo-gazzaniga-signs-for-gillingha?
He has looked pretty confident, all be it against the weaker teams we have had friendlies against. Looked pretty good in the air, as you would expect for a big lad, but alos seems to get down low quickly enough to. By no way means the finished article but definately worth the risk
superb interview, seems like a really nice kid with a level head. get him over the language barrier and he has some real potential to push hawkes to be first choice in a few seasons or atleast 2nd choice when we eventually have to choose between the 2. i was also distinctly unimpressed with willy, i thought he was a top goalkeeper and looked solid stopping shots and catching but his kicking was very questionable

as long as were sensible and if he does prove his worth then we must keep extending his contract and ensuring we put high release fees in it
