The Return of The Gibb

[steken1]

Summed him up perfectly from a defensive POV. I also think what he brings to our attack is underestimated.

Quite often he'll win the ball and quickly move it to a player in a good position to hurt the opposition, you don't get this with Neville and is a factor for us opening teams up a bit less lately.

Only issue is that he's never looked the fittest player about and may take more than a few games to get his match fitness back.

Once and for all we'll find out If Moyles really does love Neville more than life itself.

 

[Summerskin]

We've certainly had a little difficulty Staying Alive in the title race without him.

Got that right, I bet when he signed from United he didn't expect Evertonians To Love Somebody so much after such a short amount of time.

F*CKING BOOM!

How Deep Is Your Love for him?

I think he'll score on Saturday And The Sun Will Shine. Be a real Tragedy if he goes off injured again though.

I think there's far too much expectation on him

Mate, he's replacing Pip Neville, it's not that anyone would not expect a noticable performance enhancement by his switch.

This. We cant expect him to produce game-changing performances against the likes of City and Arsenal. Be nice if he was just involved as it'd get Neville out of there.

Like he did last year you mean?

Nobody is asking him to produce game-changing performances, he's in there for a bit more stability. Surely even you cant put a negative twist on the fact that hes coming back to fitness

It's Davek.
He's not loved for being able to see the sunny side of life.

I'm not putting a negative spin on it. You just have to be realistic. That's the point. He's coming back after 6 weeks out. Hardly going to hit the ground running is he?

This is the Emerald Essien we're talking about.

Dave's right. He's likely to be on the bench at first and come on for 20/25 mins max.

The balding Beckenbauer?

 

[Bigmaclad]

He's gonna win us the league on his own ffs

 

[Bungle]

I fear that once he returns it wont be long before he is out again, and that will be the continual pattern of his Everton career, I hope I'm wrong.
