Yeah sorry I worded it wrong, wasnt having a go, your view is your view.
I get what your saying, I just dont think a player like Ozil for example would fit into the system.
I think we need somebody not too flashy whos just gonna sit and do a job.
Yeah I agree. But Barry seems to be doing that job. Young james seems to be more the box to box.
I'm like you, I'd never say any of this inside Goodison.
And I love the way he's giving it everything. I admire that. I just didn't think, and still don't, that he's a better player than Gibson for that role. Simply becuase Gibbo's range of passing and shot make him valuable going both ways. In a side having nearly 70% possesion most games that's needed.
That said Gibsons never fit and we'd be up the creek without a paddle had we not signed him so I'd be wrong on that at least.
He's young too, he might add things to his game. If, for instance, by this time next season he was capable of five assists and five league goals and passing the ball forward more I'd say we've got our moneys worth.
