nearly scored with a long range effort.
My Guarantee
Am looking for old Irish matches on VHS, PM me if you have some and I'll upload them here
been running around like a headless chicken for the first 30 minutes running away from the ball if anything and loosing it when he gets it..
but just had 3 shots on target bewween 30-35 minutes green making a very good save for one the other two were tame efforts looking more confident now thou
played a part in the 3rd goal hes been ok 6/10 maybe but just not getting into the game enough..
Yeah, he looked a bit lost for the first 20 minutes - it seemed like he was unsure of where to position himself with Scholes in the pocket like that. He looks similarly indecisive when playing with Carrick. Improved after that though - started making some good forward runs and playing decoy to open up space in the middle. Lack of match-fitness told in the last 10 minutes or so, but encouraging performance. With Anderson injured, he may be pushed into service a few more times.
heres hoping he starts the cup final and united loose 2-1 with gibson scoring and dunne getting the winner
Any chance Ireland could swap Gibson for Jonny Evans?
no hargreaves and now anderson is gone for the rest of the season with a torn crutiate.
it's now or never for darron. next 2 or 3 months will determine his future career at united or lack therof.
there is a serious chance he will start the second leg of the milan tie through neccessity, united usually play with three in midfield in europe but and with carrick suspended and giggs unlikely to be fit that leaves just scholes and fletcher.
here's hoping he has what it takes to establish himself.
You're right, it is now or never for Gibson. Let's see if he has what it takes to make the grade. If not, he owes it to himself to move to a smaller club this summer.
I think he has at least another season to prove himself yet, but the next 2-3 months could see him make serious inroads.
yep think were all in agreement here.
hope they loose to villa thou but other than that come on darron!!
Granted i didnt see the first 25 odd minutes, but from what i did see i have to say it was the best i've seen him play yet, and i'd be critical off him.
When ive watched him before, he was never prepared to take the initiative was constantly getting it and just laying it off to the closest man, never prepared to play the ball in, made some nice passes into the strikers last night.
There's the right way, the wrong way.... and the Max Power way!! :-D
i saw the end of the first half and all of the second and to be honest i was not impressed with him until the 60 min mark when he actually started to find his confidence. Up until then i could have sworn that he was consciously getting himself into positions where he couldnt be passed the ball - no angles, tracking back half-heartedly and just not interested. When he switched on he was very impressive and seemed on the same wavelength as Berbatov threading some balls through to him that in another game might have led to a goal.
I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
I saw about 10 minutes of that game and yeah it looked as if Gibson was almost with purpose getting into impossible positions so he wouldn't receive the ball.
Other games I have seen his movement off the ball to be very good and intelligent.
he ran way to far forward when they were on the break hes supposed to be the link up man but he was impossible to pass to because of his positioning
another start for darron today vs wolves.
come on gibo, make an impact!
has had two decent chances so far - one shot where he might have been having his jersey tugged and another volley into the gound from a Valencia cross. Seems a bit more interested today so far.
