Guilbert inherited the captain’s armband at Strasbourg following Matz Sels’ (31) deadline day departure to Nottingham Forest. In the words of president Marc Keller, the Belgian international was a “club legend” at Strasbourg, and his departure drew the ire of the club’s faithful, who have been repeatedly critical of the youth-centric approach, heralded by the arrival of BlueCo in the summer.
