he's 27 (would be 28 in August) and has 12 goals in 17 BL matches this season.
For some reason ESPN says he was born in 86, but Wiki says he was born in 83. Also the Bundesliga site has him born in 83, which would make him 30. I don't know what site is right though. Still wouldn't want him if he's above 10 m. Firmino and Lacazette would be near the same price and have much more upside.
Eta: Espnfc says 86. Wiki says 30. All seem believable. Don't know who to trust.
The difference between Monreal and Gibbs is that Monreal needs another player to help him close down the 2 v 1 situations that often develop while Gibbs has the speed to cover both situations. They are the best LB pair we've had since Cole and Clichy though. Both are pretty great going forward, in terms of penetration though both don't have superb final balls. Rodriguez is a superb LB who we should get anyway regardless of Gibbs and Monreal's situation.

Weird. 30 sounds more correct. He's been around awhile. Still think he should be a backup option, but if healthy, he'd bang in 20 goals plus a year for us for a couple years. Could do a lot worse.
