Gilmour enjoys the pleasant weather in Naples, a big change from the limited sun he experienced in the UK. He also finds the Italian language challenging, but is making progress. He has been advised to listen to Neapolitan songs to improve his Italian skills, but has only heard a few songs in the dressing room so far.

Gilmour's primary goal was to try something new in a different league. He acknowledges that the Premier League is excellent, but saw Napoli as an opportunity to experience a new challenge. He now understands how demanding the Italian league is and how important it is to be tactically sound.

Gilmour's ultimate goal is to win as many trophies as possible. He believes that playing for Napoli, under the guidance of coach Antonio Conte, gives him a good chance to achieve this goal.

Gilmour has high praise for Conte, who he has worked with before when he was younger. He describes Conte as intense and demanding, always pushing the team to be their best. Gilmour and his teammates appreciate Conte's high standards and are motivated to give their best this season.
