Needs to bottle some of that emotion from today’s game and keep it for the rest of the season, one hell of a performance from the lad, the abuse aimed at him from the City fans was atrocious, however he answered them in the correct manner ‘on the pitch’ loved it when he was subbed, showed a massive pair of stones and walked past the lot of them with a massive grin on his face ! Loved it ! Oh and then there’s the fat lad from Sheffield giving it to them with his chicken walk ! I thought Billy had one hell of a game his strength and power at holding the ball up was outstanding!
-
Billy has been outstanding this season. Still plenty of him left to offer.
Pure Shithouse from Gibson walking past the Bradford fans after being subbed :crying:
-
Gibbo took his goal superbly. Composure and precision. And what a cross for the opener. Loved that he walked past the away fans. No words necessary. Talking was done on the pitch.
-
When he was through on goal he could have laid it off, I was shouting there’s no way he’s laying it off, he wants to score, and to top it off goal giving it large in front of the chickens after the abuse he got from them
-
Ive not been impressed with him in general, yet in the first half he was very good
-
I spoke to him in the car park last week and told him that he just needed to start believing in himself and the end product would come. Was outstanding today along with many others.
-
Great video of him walking past them on Facebook and a Bradford fan chasing him and faceplanting himself :lol:

Can you heal the sick also? Magnificent stuff.

He will verify the exchange. Surprised I didn’t get a mention in his Radio Sheff interview to be honest.
-
He did his defensive stuff as well, winning and keeping possession much better than he has done in the past. Superb performance along with Billy who's using every ounce of his experience and ability to lift the overall standards of the players around him.

Peak Gibson is the best player in the squad

I’ve been critical of gibbo on more than 1 occasion, but my god I’m happy to eat humble pie when he puts a shift like that in.

He’s got the most technical ability that’s for sure.

Marvellous stuff ! The pleb at the end trying to follow him along and then falling on his arse ! Priceless……poetic justice !
-

Clearly there’s talent there with him and from interviews he comes across as a real likeable guy. Maybe just one of them players who needs an arm around the shoulder rather than the tough love approach
-

Hes well up there,
but he rarely plays 2 games alike. It seems to be if he starts well he has a good came, if he starts poorly he often has a poor game.
-
I was surprised to see him in the starting line up, then I said to my mate, maybe Grant using some guile here and he’s hoping the the ‘Bradford’ effect will kick in ! Well if that was Grants plan it worked a treat.

I garbled something similar to him at the Sal last season, so I'm taking the credit for today!

Although belief in his ability has never been widespread on here, it is very evident from the way he works with Moly and Sterry that they share mutual confidence. He also combined well with Billy today. And there was the satisfaction of a real end product.
-
I wasn't a fan at first , I could see the speed etc but sometimes lost the ball and didn't chase back , overhit corners , free kicks and took one touch too often and fluffed shots
But and it's a BIG but I'm convinced now he is the real deal. For a few games he's been making me eat my words and even today I thought just before he scored " bugger he's blown it" but he hadn't and I thought today he was immense
Pass me the humble pie pls
-
Gibson today BRILLIANT
-
Just noticed on the extended highlights Jordan celebrating with a bit of a chicken dance arm flapping as well.
-
If Crew can get his consistency back then on current form we’ve probably got a first choice below:
TLT
Sterry
O’Riordan
Pearson
Maxwell
Broadbent
Crew
Bailey
Gibson
Sharp
Molyneux
Your only questions would be McGrath for Pearson, and maybe Ajayi for Molyneux. I don’t think Ajayi has proved himself yet to come for the crown though.
-
I’m sure there was more than a few eyebrows raised yesterday, mine included, when he was selected ahead of Middleton yesterday. Because, let’s be right, Middleton has been class so far.
But credit to the lad, he well and truly stepped up. I don’t think his ability has ever been in doubt. I just think it’s a confidence and decision making thing. Good job he was confident as Billy would’ve blown a gasket for not squaring it had he not scored!!
His body language won’t help him for some, but that’s how he is so won’t change.
He gave a very interesting interview with radio Sheffield yesterday saying how was told to play inside in a more of a number 10 role. He stated that he prefers that and he likes to go both ways. Well it certainly showed. It has been suggested by some on here he should play in that role and in fairness, his poorest work does occur when he’s hugging that left flank. Well if that’s the result when moved then long may it continue.
Who plays next match? Good problems to have.

I don’t think Ajayi is anywhere near challenging Moly for the first choice spot as it stands. Also think Clifton is the favoured choice in the most advanced central midfield role, although that may change when Crew & Gotts become more settled.
Gibson is probably slightly ahead of Middleton although they’ll continue to rotate - I’d be surprised if either gets more than 3 or 4 consecutive starts at any point this year unless the other is injured.

Ajayi isn’t close to Moly at the moment. And Crew hasn’t done much compared to Clifton, Close and Gotts when fit. Let’s not fall for loan player bias they need to have a few good games before we think they are 1st 11 material.

Gibbo winding the small cocks up after being subbed, quality shithouse :lol:

Agreed that Crew shouldn’t be ahead of Clifton, Close and Gotts for an automatic starting place.

Love that Jordan has retweeted on his instagram Bradford fans chanting “his dad is a c””t”

Does anyone know why the chickens decided to chant about Gibbos dad?
What has he done to pee them off?

Apparently said some not nice things on twitter about Bradford a bit back

Gibson is our most frustrating player IMO. Sometimes I just don’t think he applies himself correctly but when he does and he’s “on it” he plays to a very high standard. Many MOTM candidates yesterday but he edged it for me and not just for sticking it to their fans!

I agree he's frustrating at times but I'm pretty sure it's not down to lack of application. The way he carries himself and his body language is misleading, he strikes me as a very sensitive individual who probably puts too much pressure on himself and beats himself up when things don't quite work out. He's easily one of the most naturally gifted players in the team .
-
Agreed, he seems like me, takes things to heart maybe, easily frustrated and shuts off, not a criticism but I imagine controlling those emotions can be hard given the situation. Brilliant player though.

On the BBC Sport app comment thread his Dad came on and said the stick Jordan was getting was his fault because he was a vocal criticising the club for not giving Jordan much game time

I would say Gibson is comfortably ahead of Middleton.
JG better technically. Something about the way he receives the ball and glides with it.

Some of us have been saying for some time how good a player Gibbo is but that he needed to improve his shooting and often, his final ball.
Well he improved both aspects on Saturday so hopefully he will gain confidence from that and kick on and become a top player.
