    The commentator went on and on about him, but I wasn't too convinced.

    He didn't stick out as being bad, which is probably impressive since United played the majority of the match with ten men, but the commentator was just a bit OTT with his praise in my opinion.

    I think he always just seems to do enough without ever grabbing a hold of the game and bossing it, has a good strike off the ball to be fair to him,

    Yeah, this is what I mean. I'm not sure if he doesn't have that extra gear elite players have, or if he's just lazy...

    Just as a matter of interest, who has Trap called up to replace Darren Gibson? He replaced Steven Reid with Martin Rowlands, Caleb Folan with Noel Hunt, I haven't heard if he has replaced anyone for Darren Gibson.

    think the squad was already 27 players, and he didn't think Gibson needed to be replaced with Miller, Whelan, Rowlands and Andrews available to him.

    He must still be recovering from his previous "groin problem". Not even on the bench for Manchester United away to Barnsley in the Carling Cup today.

    I'd like to see a comparison between Gibson and Fletcher at the same age.

    In fairness I think they're totally different players though.

    Fletcher is a real workmanlike player (still talented), while Gibson seems to have all the natural talent in the world but doesn't seem to have the work ethic or mental ability to really stamp his foot down and control a game.

    I realize he is still young, and hasn't got a good run of games at central midfield, but those are my thoughts on Gibson so far.

    Gibson was tidy enough tonight, looked more of a player than Carrick who replaced him but I don't know if thats saying a lot.

    Rustu, our old nemesis from 10 years ago ended up in goals for the Turks.

    Dunphy, Giles and Whelan gave Gibby a hard time tonight. He wasn't the worst player on that pitch!
