Darron Gibson

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

So if he does go to Sunderland, that would make their former Everton contingent Rodwell, Vic, Pienaar, Gibson and Lescott with Jags possibly also still incoming?

That's going to massively divide the dressing room isn't it? I bet all the Everton lads will form a clique

Ive got a mate who works in Sunderland Wetherspoons and he said three hours ago some Irish guy came in and asked him to hide a cyclists helmet.
He asked him what he was doing in sunderland and he said 'shhhhhighn sundelnsdmoyshe'

And my mate said 'oh right youre darron gibson arent you? thought you were banned from all our pubs though'

Could be BS but just passing on what i've been told.

Probably BS mate.

If it was in a Nandos, I'd believe you...

And Oviedo?

Think that lot have got more chance of dividing the treatment room mate.

Oviedo would probably be the "bridge" between the two groups, because he's so gosh darn lovely

All the Sunderland crew would be like "I hate that Everton clique, but Bry is alright. If he says Lescott isn't an utter tit then I guess I'll believe him"

I want Gibson gone as much as the next man, but his issues have never been about his ability

When Moyes was here, Gibson was pretty much excellent for about 18 months

It's only since Moyes left, Martinez came in and brought McCarthy and Barry with him, that Gibson became a 2nd choice player. At that point it went all downhill for him. He got injured a lot (as happened at United when he wasn't playing) and the rumours about his liking for a pint got more and more frequent, culminating in that drink-driving incident.

If someone gets Gibson fit and motivated, they have a really good midfielder - he's 10 times the player Rodwell has ever been, for example. The catch is that nobody other than Moyes in Gibson's career has had him consistently fit and motivated. Could be a good fit, worth a gamble on their part, but realistically it was bonkers of us to give him that new contract last summer.

Too fragile by far, if someone wants to take him off our hands and heaven knows perhaps give us a bit of cash to release him, he should be out of the door quicker than a randy milkman on early closing day

Two more complete shitters culled from the squad.

...you can't dislike Oviedo but I agree that we should be looking for better.

 

[EFCPaul]

Lemo for everyone.

Gibbo has got to drive himself up there and Bry has to pass a medical. Wouldn't be doing any celebrations just yet.

I don't dislike him, he just reminds me of the Martinez era so I want him gone.

Off to sleep. When i wake up i want Gibson gone on a permanent deal please..

...I'm just happy with him going because we can get better in. Lukaku is from the Martinez era.

....perhaps Oviedo will give Gibson a lift.
