JoeQuince Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 Moyes expects him to be out for a month... it'll probably end up being about 3 months then! Was just about to post the OS article on this... sucks so bad. Do we find another holding midfielder in the transfer window? Makes me wonder if we will make a move for Vadis on loan now. I know some people are of the opinion that we are fine in the center of midfield, but if Gibson's always hurt, Hitzlsperger is injury prone, and Moyes has taken to playing Felli in an attacking position, then we have only Neville to rely on as a physical presence. And, well, his distribution is, well, you know.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 Francisco Junior played a lot pre season and was on the bench quite a few times if I remember rightly....quite highly rated. Not been mentioned for a while but might be an option? pete0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not been mentioned for a while but might be an option? True. I like the look of him. But, if memory serves correctly, he wasn't too strong on the ball when we started him in the cup game, and he seemed to lose possession a lot, which led to some chances the other way. He does have a good shot on him though, and that tackle he flew into in preseason was pretty awesome. I don't think he's secure enough to play in the league yet though.

I wouldn't hold the Leeds game against him, he had just come back from injury and weren't fit enough to start in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, the rest of the side were awful as well so it wasn't like he had anyone to help him through the game like he should have. pete0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mogsy Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 Did he have a lot of injuries at man utd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted January 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Did he have a lot of injuries at man utd? I think so. Mostly due to him not playing often for them and not being match fit, therefore picking up niggling injuries. So it looks like he's susceptible to injury when coming back from not playing. We'll have to be very careful with him when he comes back in after this injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue 250 Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Let's hope the 'out for a month' includes the fittness work needed to ensure no relapse.surely the medical staff arn't going to send out the likes of Gibson and Mirallas ahead of a sencible return.....one extra game without them must make more sence than a second injury.Guess that's where a bigger sqaud would have come in handy.

Sideliner Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 but why are we the fans not kept up to date with what the progress or lack thereof is with 2 of our best players? - Gibson and Mirallas - lack of information leads to speculation and rumours - maybe we will understand the coaching staff better if they give us more info - or are we expecting too much ?

Quinn31 Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 Can't decide if I blame Duffy or Cahill, but ever since Duffy got his sleeve, McAleny and Barkley both got one and now Gibson got this! Not that I mind "body art", but if you want to cover yourself with shitty tattoos, go play for Liverpool! Kidding... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalziel Kane Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 I never understood the need for soccer players to cover themselves in art designs either. But if that's what they want.. Doesn't suit Gibson at all from this perspective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 They're in a profession where "Body Art" has no influence on their employers opinion. Like working as a hairstylist or artist or photographer. If he worked for a blue chip company, they may frown on it but as a footballer, its not.

Steve_E Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 I hope he doesn't return. He shouldn't strain his body even further, he could do with the rest during international breaks. Quinn31 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenosetoffee Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 So he should snub them, Gibbo was playing well for Everton yet didn't get a game at the Euros what is that about.

The same with Mirallas, he brought him back too quick. Sure we will miss the quality but in all seriousness an extra week here and there is better for the player. It does benefit us knowing that Martinez is a qualified Physio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weebittight Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 Don't like to see this personally. The majority of Irish players I heard yesterday and today have plenty of positive things to say about Trapp. Twitter is a curse in my opinion. I don't want to hear what the players think - I just want them to show me effort and skill on the pitch and realiise just how fortunate they are to be getting mega money for playing a sport. Me and my aching prostate are currently working five nights a week on top of my day job - so I don't care if Darron <daft spelling> has the hump or not.
