Do Opposition Fans Watch Gibbs?

They all seem to be under the impression he's the weakness in our defence. It's fast becoming one of the big myths around.

How on earth do they come to these conclusions?

Shaw has been brilliant for the last one and a half seasons in the Premier League. The type of performances he's put in for an 18 year old have been exceptional. He's not the finished article, as he does have a habit of running into blind alleys and sometimes goes too far forward, but you can see the potential in him. Gibbs at the moment is a more intelligent defender than Shaw, but I do feel that Shaw will be as good as Ashley Cole, perhaps even better. He's quick, has a mean delivery of the ball, great stamina and rarely makes any mistakes in defence. I'm sure he will improve even further.

Cole is better defensively than Gibbs and Baines is better going forward which is unfortunate at international level although with Shaw coming through anway I don't think he'll ever be England's first choice LB.

Dubbed were you implying that you think bale is better than neymar?

Of course Bale is better than Neymar. Shouldn't be a discussion.

Don't be ridiculous.

Neymar > Bale

If we could join Gibbs' defensive awareness and tackling with Nacho's offensive skills we would have the ultimate fullback. It's up to either of them improvingtheir weakness.
