Opinions and all that mate but Rodwell does absolute nothing really. Plays within himself. No doubt he's got talent but he seemingly struggles with the confidence or drive to go with it.
Compare that to Gibson. Took him a few games to settle in but held good position and allowed Fellaini to be more effective, importantly he uses the ball very well. We pass our way out of defence with him and Heitinga. Could you see Rodwell distributing the ball out wide the way he does? Always looking to play a positive pass. Rodwell turns and goes back to the defenders.
Gibson has done more in an Everton shirt than Rodwell has. Like I said, name five games where he's played very well. Hard to do isn't it?
I cant a remember a game where Gibson's been a stand out. He's been solid eclipsed by in form players around him.
It's all down to what way you're inclined. At a push the two are similar in there input, you'll always get 6 out of 10 games from the off. But its down to who had/has the extra talent in their game.
I believe Jack's a better footballer and could offer a better attacking threat when needed. Gibson gives you consistency.
Ones 21 the other 24. Ones schooled at United, one at Everton. The two are a **** hairs aguement in talent stakes at the same juncture. Yet one has peaked, the others still learning.
I'll laying it to bed now
