Haway then - give me the lowdown on our 2 new signings??

[Rejected]

Will Gibson and Oviedo do a decent job or just more reason to start planning championship journeys??

 

[jazzy]

Both are Championship standard which is where Everton B are heading

 

[RaleighBlue]

If Gibson can stay fit (he can't) he'll offer a wonderful passing range and is a very good midfielder. He'll probably run into a cyclist first and his knees will explode. Again

Oviedo is a brilliant young man. He's an alright left back that was never the best defensively and lost something with his injury.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Good signing in Oviedo. Don't trust Gibson to stay fit, but decent when he is.

 

[AmericanBlue]

Oviedo is pretty decent, he could be a perfect signing to replace his more expensive jettisoned sacrifice.

Gibson was once a decent midfielder but has had a lot of injury issues so no idea which version you will get.

I'll be supporting you lot as I have since Moyes took over, hope you can make it.

 

[Jags..class]

Like Oviedo as he is quite good tbf but he struggled to be a starter due having Baines who is a class act.
Gibson passing is sublime but he just always wasn't fit enough to become a keyman for us. Good luck to the rest of the season. How pienaar been for you?

 

[The Penalty Box Dancer]

Gibson will always look to play the ball forward and Oviedo is good going forward but can look dodgy against good opposition. Oviedo needs games and will be a good player. He has never had a consistent run. Give him time and don't judge him too quick.

Both will be low on match fitness

 

[rochdaleblue]

If both were fully fit, they'd still be in the frame for us. As has been well publicised, injuries have decimated their careers. When Gibson first came here he was excellent (we went on a long unbeaten run). As for Oviedo prior to his leg break he was displaying the sort of form that could have seen him displace Baines (no mean feat at the time). Hope both do a job for you (if they stay fit) and you can beat the drop.

Gibson, FIT, will release Defoe into a forest of goals. But he has a drink problem.

Oviedo is sound, thats about it really. Lovely lad, but got snapped in half a while back and hasnt really done much since.

 

[Tin-Tin]

As the above poster said, if Gibson stays fit then you have an excellent player who can spot a pass.

I like Oviedo, not the best defensively but neither was PVA so that shouldnt make a difference, plus he's good going forward. Excellent attitude too.

They can both definitely help your cause and I hope you stay up - good luck.

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

Oviedo is a good signing. Not top class but will give his all and is a thoroughly likeable lad too.

Gibson had a great start to his career here but has spent the last 2 seasons injured or crashing into cyclists.

I hope both can find some sort of form and keep you up.

I wish you every success as you have a lot of our old team and all where good lads (apart from Lescott).

 

[latchnmac]

Oviedo will end up in hospital
Gibson will go to jail.
Best of luck though

 

[Saint Domingo]

Replacing Van Aanholt with Oviedo and bagging the cash is good business. If you can keep both fit and in the first team they're decent players. Both pretty rusty and injury prone if used sporadically though.

 

[Rossisboss]

Just be careful when your out on your bike. Gibson isn't the best driver when he is drunk.

 

[edge]

If fit they will do a decent job., only problem for both is neither has had much game time, gibson if fit will give defoe a few good passes that could be important in the run in can put a tackle in as well.
Bryan is a good player well worth the money sunderland have paid.
