Nice work, Agent Gibson 
Darron Gibson - is he good enough for Everton?
- Thread starter Name Changed
- Start date
Well Gibbo could always do it again when he faces us and scores and own goal, much like Neville did a couple of years back
Darron Gibson.. football genius
thank you dg.
Fixed.
Must say it felt truly bizarre belting out 'There's only one Darron Gibson!'
If we go on to win it, he'll be written into United folklore. Perhaps the south stand will be the next to be renamed...
You old hippy fart you...
Agent Gibson! Loved Fergie's comment when asked about the goal.
I have always loved Darren Gibson!!!
He's a decent player to be fair to him. He can shoot and is quite composed on the ball. The problem was he didnt really take his chances he was given. He did score some good goals but we needed a much more dominating playmaker or at least a midfield destroyer. He's neither of the two while with us.
Anyway, good luck to him. I am happy for him for scoring that goal.

Happy for him, happy for us. Hope he does well in Everton...
Thank you Darron
Gibbo, You've made my day.
Good strike. am sure he'l turn out to be a good signing for everton. specially at 1mil.
Half of that..
and half of THAT now.. the other half in the summer
what did he say?
IIRC it was;
"Aye, it's all coming together"
Or something along those lines, which was bound to piss of loads of non-united fans!!
He said "All part of the plan" and laughed.
Watched the entire game during my break today - Gibbo other than that goal was horrible. Repeatedly gave the ball away, or ran into traffic with the ball - and his attempts at tackling
In fact, at one point in the 2nd half the crowd let out an exasperated sigh after yet another Gibson mistake(one OT was quite used to when he played). Same criticism of him as usual - not creative enough, doesn't do enough defensively, too often a passenger.

Well, this is why I never understood why people thought he would be a star at other teams in the PL.
He's too immobile to be a good CM IMO, the odd strike aside.
He is at his best as an AM without defensive responsibility, but this takes away from his arguably best trait, his passing range, and also he isn't fleet-footed enough to play there, nor is his through balls frequently brilliant enough.
Basically, he's a midfielder without a real position in the modern game.
Are there any videos of Old Trafford singing "There's only one Darron Gibson" after he scored last night ?
I was watching the highlights after I watched the first half only of the Everton game, I intended on checking the score the later. Wondered what was being chanted at first, finally figured out it was only one darren gibson, quickly followed by Fergie sign him up!! I figured he must have have scored against city which made me chuckle even more!
I'm happy for him and I wish him a very good career.With less pressure and more confidence, he can be a very good player for Everton
Looks like he has not lost a game where he played in Everton. Good for him , Gibbo.
He was good last night too. A few good tackles, several good through balls and generally calm and collected. Everton have got another bargain if he keeps that up.
I aways keep a little eye out on Everton games mainly to see how he's doing. Looks good to me, hopefully be stuck in their first team for years to come.
Wonder how long it will be before the same people that relentlessly slagged Gibson off when he was still at United start complaining that Fergie sold him too cheaply or shouldn't have sold him at all?
Was there any doubt that he would be a good top flight player?
Great to see him getting on well performance wise. The Everton fans seemed to have taken to him almost immediately too & i'm delighted for him in that respect.
Lots expressed on here. Read the earlier pages of this thread.
Yeah loads. Maybe not from reasoned people who know something about football, but from the kind of scummy little shitfaces that hounded him off twitter.
Won't happen. He was nowhere near good enough for United, unfortunately.

Everton fans have really taken a liking to him, some saying he is even better than Rodwell.

A mate of mine who is a Toffees fan said he pretty much stroll around the field much of the game but his presence seems to allow Felliani to play further up the field which really work for them.
Yep, dont think he'l ever do anything at Everton to merit questioning SAFs decision to move him on. he was a good squad player for us, thats as far as he could go at a top club imo. will do well at a club like everton though if things go well for him.
Thats pretty certain in my view. Gibson had a top class education at Old Trafford and showed what he could do in games such as the Champions League final.
Roswell is overhyped for being English. Potentially a good player but very very overated as a youngster. Gibson is years ahead in his development and really needed a run of games to provide a basis for consistency.
