Globo : #DeBoer called contacted #Gabigol to convince him. Player was impressed with #Inter's strong market and believes in the project. #Gabigol isn't bothered by the fact #Inter haven't won trophies in years. He believes this project is the start of a revolution. #Gabigol had a tendency towards Milano city from the beginning. When #Inter explained their project, they conquered his heart.

Motion to remove 'Gabigol' from the thread title.

The problem is, that is what everyone calls him. Even though we all think it is stupid, people know who Gabigol is, not as many know who Gabriel Barbosa is.

I kind of understand even if the nick name is shitty, but can we atleast give infractions to people calling him gabagoal? Gives me a fucking stroke anytime i read it.

Vito came up with that up and he is the admin around here so...
You are more likely to get an infraction for dissing the boss here
:troll:

Wow I'm so glad that he gave us a chance and agreed to play for us! We are so lucky to have a legend like him in our team and I honestly don't how we've convinced him to join us. Thank you so much Gabigol for lowering your high standards to a club like Inter! Man he's so humble that he even didn't mind us not winning trophies in the past years.

Yeah it's annoying, it's not even becoming shorter which I'd understand. Like if someone called him Gabi, I'd get it, but this shit is annoying

To be fair, I'd rather call him Gabigoal than Gabriel Barbosa. Its the type of stupid thing we need though. I have a young nephew and he loves football and loves 'Gabigoal' now because of his stupid nickname. such a stupid thing but useful

A great example of what I was saying earlier. Kids love these kinds of stupid nicknames.

I don't have a problem with him being called Gabigol nor getting the no. 10 jersey. Both of these could be great for marketing.

A 19 yr old promising Brasilian forward who just won the gold medal in Olympics (this is the first time Brazil wins gold in Olympics), was bought for 28 million Euro by Inter, is nicknamed Gabigol and is going to wear the No.10 shirt.

Come on! Don't tell me this isn't going to look good marketing-wise! It will certainly attract the fans or at least make them curious to watch Inter. Just go back 10, 20 years ago when you were a kid and tell me that reading about Gabigol wouldn't be exciting!

His last name is memorable enough, that any nickname on top of it is unnecessary, let alone such an unimaginative one.

fantastic talent (not an neymar level however) but don't see the reasoning behind this purchase. Conceded three goals in two games against weak opposition and we buy another forward?!? Can't make any sense of this. Only inter.

Do you get the reference? If not, then I can understand the confusion. It is funny for us Italians to hear Gabigol because it sounds exactly like gabagool aka capicola.

What do these things mean? I just thought it was because of Gabi-goal (obvious) also similar to Bati-goal? Didnt realise there was an italian language reference also

Honestly think he will flop, hope I am wrong. Also, I hate buying hyped Brazilians because even if theyre good they leave you with no loyalty hopefully he will be more or a Maicon or Cesar than robinho

What did Robinho do? If you are referring to his time at RM, if I remember correctly he got into a dispute with the club because they were basically whoring him out because they wanted to bring in Ronaldo.
