“A proper old school footballer. Reminds me of some of our academy products from yesteryear. “
“Gilchrist -aka-John Terry”
“JTs favourite young player in the academy, and you can see why.”
“I hope he turns out to be good as JT expects!”
“just love his passion. I’ve seen him play a few times and he’s always looked decent and I know JT really rates him.”
“Gilchrist should start as he at least cares. “
“think young Gilchrist is a cut from the traditional cloth. He celebrates tackles and throw in wins like goals.”
“Alfie has always looked good whenever I’ve watched him play, unfortunately for him we are pretty stacked with CB’s at the moment.”
“No idea how good he’ll be but I love his attitude”
“he’ll be a great player as he matures”
“Gilchrist have a great future.”
“Love his attitude and work rate but realistically he gets nowhere near once reece is fit. However, we know what reece’s injury record is like and gilchrist would be useful to have waiting in the wing if needed. “
“my belief is that he’s not going to be big enough to be a centre-half in the PL – so a full-back or right-side in a three”
“Gilchrist looks as if he has it in him to play wing back.”
“First and foremost he’s a CB, he needs minutes in the middle to see if his height will be an issue. Don’t think he has the tools to be a full back in the Prem. “
“Looks very limited but so do most CB’s when they’re asked to play full back”
“Gilchrist ain’t no RB. Except they want him to form a back 3 then if not, forget any attacking output. He’s a proper CB”
“When he stepped up, his performances were solid but not exceptional. However, he showed that he had heart, desire, and a love for our club, which elevated his status and ability in the eyes of many fans, including myself. “
“He might turn out to be just below the level that we require technically but put his desire, heart and attitude into the two other clowns and to a lesser degree the rest and we’ve got the place where you need your teams mentality to be at. “
“on first viewings looks a little bit limited at first-team level, but tries his nuts off”
“Gilchrist will probably never be good enough”
“He’s a very average, traditional English defender. Not a lot to his game. Hasn’t been called up at any level for the national team. “
“Looks like a proper thug”
