He only played one season and a half for us and in that period he played always as central defender and once as right back to neutralize the best left winger in our competition (Kevin De Bruyne of Racing Genk who is closely followed by Chelsea). De Bruyne was substituted at half time against us because he ran into Gary time after time. After that game we thought Gary would continue as right back because he could maken offensive runs but he himself wanted to play as central defender. The supporters were many times asking for Gary to play in midfield because of his technical skills and forward runs but our coach never tried it. Among the fans our conclusion is that he would play best as defensive midfield. He has all the skills for that position. As a central defender he sometimes wants to do too much and that can lead to an error in defence. But playing in a higher league I am sure that he will keep his play sober in the beginning and will just concentrate on his defensive tasks. He is not really a goal scorer. He came close at times with headers from free kicks because his timing is very good but it's not his speciality. But he never missed from the penalty spot.
I read on a Belgian forum that Monaco stepped in with an offer of 2.4 million. Hopefully it will not become a soap. That's not good for anybody. But it is true that our club can use the money. We have just been through a hostile take-over and our previous shareholders left us with a big amount of debts.
