Probably do alright for a team like Hull or lower. Eventually might be a regular prem player somewhere. Nowhere near United's standard
The only way that will happen is if he is played regularly.He'll come good.
I hate Chelsea players but honestly, you're comparing Gibson with Lampard???Lampard is a very good footballer NOW, one of the best around. I'm referring to when he was at WH in particular. He didn't have much to his game back then other than scoring a few goals
oh ffs, read what i saidI hate Chelsea players but honestly, you're comparing Gibson with Lampard???

Was thinking that earlierremember what people were saying about darren fletcher not long ago?
you never know, he showed immense potential last year when he was played
What did I do?oh ffs, another one
I dont see you saying Anderson can only make it at Hull or someone lower. I mean if you're going to make kneejerk statements, lets get the facts straight at least. Gibson was better than Anderson tonight so maybe Anderson should play for the team at the bottom of the league eh?What did I do?
The difference is Geebs, Anderson has already showed what he can do at this level - which is why he was voted man of the month last month.I dont see you saying Anderson can only make it at Hull or someone lower.

Ouch, sorry mate?I dont see you saying Anderson can only make it at Hull or someone lower. I mean if you're going to make kneejerk statements, lets get the facts straight at least. Gibson was better than Anderson tonight so maybe Anderson should play for the team at the bottom of the league eh?
No. Because thats fecking stupid to make such a silly judgment isnt it
Then you will know that Gibson has been out injured for 2 months and this was his first start back. You'll have taken that into account with your judgment right?Ouch, sorry mate?
Actually do watch United play a few games a season, so I have watched both Anderson, and belive it or not, Gibbson a few times before.
4 years ago, Fletcher was having good games inconsistently too, didn't stop our so called fans saying he should be playing Championship football not PLThe difference is Geebs, Anderson has already showed what he can do at this level - which is why he was voted man of the month last month.
Well actually, if I based my opinion on todays match, then no I did not know that.Then you will know that Gibson has been out injured for 2 months and this was his first start back. You'll have taken that into account with your judgment right?
In my defence them, I never once doubted Fletcher. Actually quite the opposite4 years ago, Fletcher was having good games inconsistently too, didn't stop our so called fans saying he should be playing Championship football not PL
off course, but then considering he hardly played this season, you must be basing your opinion on last season then right? The season when he made some starts, scored a few crackers and generally got good praise.Well actually, if I based my opinion on todays match, then no I did not know that.
But you shout kneejerk at someone's opinion.
I might have watched some United games before the one today. You'll have taken that into account with your...judgment right?
I usually base my opinion on what I see. Every onece in a while it wont be the same as everyone elses. Sometimes I get it right, sometimes not.off course, but then considering he hardly played this season, you must be basing your opinion on last season then right? The season when he made some starts, scored a few crackers and generally got good praise.
I mean you really couldn't be judging a player on an opinion formed of him more than 2 years ago could you?
We can't just use Fletch as an argument every time it suits us. Then we should never rule out players under 24.4 years ago, Fletcher was having good games inconsistently too, didn't stop our so called fans saying he should be playing Championship football not PL
Thats not what im fecked off about Top. I'm fecked off because (and it was the same with Fletcher), apparently not only is it time for us to say that he's not good enough for United but no, thats not going far enough, we like to degrade the lad so that he's only good enough for Hull, Stoke or worse.We can't just use Fletch as an argument every time it suits us.

Gibson is no Fletcher, at least not in most people's eyes, and I think it's okay for people to have formed an opinion on Gibson by now. There are a lot of midfielders at the club and coming through the ranks, and even though Fergie likes the lad, then it just doesn't look like he'll be able to make his way into the team the same way Fletch did.
Even if he's Northern Irish
I think that's just the way it is, people like to exaggerate when arguing their case - Nani has been the victim of that for a year now, and it has pissed me off as well, because I, unlike most people, like the lad - just like how you like Gibson, while a lot of people can't see him ever being 'United quality', which is frustrating.Thats not what im fecked off about Top.

Well obviously, but this is after all a forum, and if we just assume that none of us have a clue and that we shouldn't post if we don't know what we're talking about, then the forum would be empty.And the Fletcher (and O'Shea) arguments are very valid. It shows that we fans dont know our arse from our elbow, don't have enough patience and the coaches are more informed than us.
This is not true. There is evidence to the contrary Sir, your tune in 2007 is very different in not doubting Fletcher, you may want to edit this post above, after you have done that, I will edit mine to save you.In my defence them, I never once doubted Fletcher. Actually quite the opposite
The majority of the Fletcher abuse came at a time when he wasnt playing in central midfield though. And then some people needed a while to come to terms with the fact that their initial opinions of Fletcher, on the right wing, were in fact wrong when it came to him playing in central midfield. Some people still dont accept that he's a very good central midfielder but the less said about them, the better.Thats not what im fecked off about Top.

Hm, maybe once then? You did a post search on me? I think you must be the first one on here who ever done that. Thanks! What did I say?This is not true.

Not sure if he's referring to your namesake...Hm, maybe once then? You did a post search on me? I think you must be the first one on here who ever done that. Thanks! What did I say?
Yes that might be. I've seen someone with a very similar nameNot sure if he's referring to your namesake...
Just a scare tactic ,( lately it has been hard to find those who thrashed Fletcher that one has to resort to threats to find them) you did not do that bad on Fletcher, you just summed him up with TK as maybe the weakest link, but down the thread, you placed a deep defense of Fletcher against someone by the name B Cantona.Hm, maybe once then?

Hah look at that, I didnt do bad at all You should see some of my other stuff on Fletcher. Would blow your mindJust a scare tactic ,( lately it has been hard to find those who thrashed Fletcher that one has to resort to threats to find them) you did not do that bad on Fletcher, you just summed him up with TK as maybe the weakest link, but down the thread, you placed a deep defense of Fletcher against someone by the name B Cantona.

give the lad a chance, clearly very eager to impress and the pressure got to him.Is shooting supposed to be one of his strengths?
He's pretty quick when he gets into his running, but is a little slow off the mark compared to someone like Fletcher.I can't see him making it. I can't put my finger on exactly what bothers me about him but I'm not a fan of him. I think he will develop into the type of player that could be quite decent at a midtable club but he seems too slow to be a top player.
