A completely un-match fit Gibson against City? Disaster. He's not exactly mobile when he's fit.

 

I would question how fit he actually is working at being... not sure how many players trying to regain fitness are absolutely leathered on a saturday night only 2 weeks ago...

Cracking player mate and made us tick the season before last. If he stays fit there's no reason why he can't push McCarthy and Barry all the way. We'll need him with the extra games.

Makes you wonder why Besic really but 4 is better than 3 I suppose. Nice to see him have a belting season and force his way through sgain. He controls play fantastically, can pick a pass and never gives it away and also likes a tackle

The thing I like about Gibson is he always shows for the ball and 90% of the time his passes go forward rather than sideways.

He just controls play so well, his positional play is phenomenal, always seems to be in the right place at the right time, his awareness of what going on sround him is brilliant. Massively underated.

He has been solid but nothing more for me and he is a poorer but younger version of Barry.

 

He started preseason last year really well but when we played the better teams he looked out of his depth. I hope he comes good, but personally I dont see him being any more than cover, especially if the injury has had a lasting effect.

Just watching 2012/13 review and Gibson was absolutely brilliant. A forgotten man here and someone who is probably only expected to be a squad player. When the lads fit he's brilliant.

Agree he really does get the team moving forward etc.

 

Members on here don't rate him but I can't wait for him to be back.

Didn't we go through a patch where we didn't lose when he was on the pitch? Something like 12 games unbeaten then he got injured and we lost a match... might be imagining that? Either way I always rated him. Always put in solid performances and did a similar job to Barry in a way that he protected the defense really well.

You're not imaging it, it was nearly a season where he played we hadn't lost I think. That might be because he missed large parts of the season due to injury mind you, 12 games sounds more realistic :D
