...he's a good version of most defensive Premier League midfielders, that's exactly what we wanted and what we got.

We should always be looking to improve.
If you stop doing that you may as well give up and go home.

It's something Gibson has to his game. We should be wanting our centre backs to be scoring more goals too.

Probably right.He got on the plane, good enough for me as an Irish supporter & Everton fan although Id rather he sat it out and be ready for West Ham if hes not 100%. Thinks it only Utd and Lpool players that dont bother leaving their clubs when suppsore to be injured!!
Is it , remember a goal against city he scored ,struggling after that.

QPR at home too, I think, but also struggling to name any more from Gibson.
He has those driving forward runs in his locker - he saw the opening against Sunderland in the second half last week and carried the ball 30 odd yards into their area. I think he's just very slightly conservative in his play, determined not to make a mistake that creates a vulnerable situation. That's not a bad thing, and as he grows futher into his role we'll see more expression from him, I'm sure.
The most exciting thing about James is he has every component of a top central midfielder: physically he's fast and strong; mentally he shows good anticipation and terrific effort (the goal clearance on Sunday was heroic); and technically he can pass, has good feet and comfort on the ball, and is capable (see Hull last year) of getting in the box and scoring. He might not be showing the latter all that much, but I honstly can't think of the last midfielder we had who possessed all those qualities.

He has been superb this season, I am worried about the amount of noise being made in the media regarding his contract situation and a possible summer move. I appreciate he is under contract until 2018 so there is no panic, it does seem like his representatives are trying hard to negotiate a pay rise though.
Tim Howard scored once, he should be working on getting more goals if he wants to become world class. Lazy!
