Gibson

Molyneux couldn't beat an egg. He needs to concentrate on shooting more and getting decent crosses in.

Theres no pleasing some people … he is the clubs top scorer and assists . He is playing the best he’s ever played anywhere  . He like most players needs support to get the best out of him . Molly gets kicked off the pitch  most games and just gets on with it . We need more like him…

Mols regularly beats his man, no question about it.

We will have to agree to disagree on that one.

[DonnyBazR0ver]

He or any good wide player, doesn't necessarily have to beat their man, but make sufficient room to cross or shoot. How many times did we see Beckam outpacing a defender? One of the best deliveries in world football.

You can’t disagree it’s just a fact!
Gibson was very good last night but he’s definitely not better than molly at beating a man or have more pace.
Molly has been our best player this season by an absolute country mile

Gibson is quicker than Moly. He’s also better at creating space/ using a trick to beat a man in tight situations.

[Padge_DRFC]

Gibson would be okay where McCann is playing Clifton. Closest player to Coppinger we've ever had in terms of having his back to their goal and then being able to move forward with it.

[drfchound]

As a small aside and a note to any black bank singers who are on here, when the Jordan Gibson song is sung, please update as we go along and change the “Grimsby” bit to fit whoever we are playing.

What nonsense!

Mols leaves his opponent for dead time and time again.
And he gets plenty of decent crosses in.

I cannot believe why he gets criticism from some on here.

[mpc123]

LM is by far our best player.

I'm not saying Gibson doesn't have the potential to be better. Today LM is our best player.

Hopefully Gibson does get better  than LM because we would have 2 crazy forward players / wingers for our level.

The Gibson ball to Molly for our third goal was as good as you will see in any division.
Calm and measured.

[EasyforDennis]

Maybe I didn't make my point simple enough for some people.
Molyneux is very good at hitting the ball past the defender and taking his opponent on for speed. However, he has only six assists to his name, so maybe his crossing could be better.
Trying to take a player on and beat him at close quarters. He very rarely comes away with the ball.

So quote me how many times he does it

I can do that once a season. I'm being sarcastic, but Molly is different class on all stats based on how GM wants wingers to play.

If either or is easy on the eye for you personally fair enough but it's about value for DRFC. Gibson wasn't picked for quite a while, why don't you think that was? He seems to have come back better. Hopefully he does show his potential. Molly is still miles better at the moment.

Maybe the last 12 games Gibson can prove not, looking forward to it.

Molyneux is joint 3rd in the league for “big chances created”.

Love Moly and I know you’re not making the comparison here but I bet that Gibson has a better big chances created per 90 minutes played.

As I have said before, I have seen a stat somewhere which showed that Gibson playing in the 10 role in Div 1 was the best in the division for creating big chances. McCann should try him in that role & get Hurst back to play on the wing.

[GazLaz]

Gibson and Mols gave both his the woodwork 4 times this season. As a team I think it’s 17 times in total. Most of any team in the EFL.

I often myself Agreeing with you gaz but on this occasion I’m in complete disagreement. Molyneux beats his man much more frequently than Gibson does. Molyneux also looks quicker to me.

[Usher wide.]

I think what we’re really saying is that Moly & Gibson should be nailed on starters as our two wide men.

End of.

You are allowed to be wrong mate, that’s fine. Only BST not allowed to me wrong on here! (That’s a joke btw!)


Seriously though, Gibsons dribbling and dribble success are on another level to Moly. Gibson would be 1/20 in a 50 yard race as well.


Give Moly a bit of space and hell chop inside and get a ball in. Don’t give him space he really struggles to get out of tight areas. His feet aren’t that quick and he doesn’t really have a trick.

Spent loads of time looking at both players this season. Molyneux’s end product has been sensational. If he gets a chance to get a cross in it’s generally a good one, if he gets the chance to shoot it’s generally a testing one. Aside from that his defending numbers aren’t great for someone that works as hard as he does. His dribbling and passing stats not great either.


I’d be interested seeing him play up front in a two as a bit of a free man. Think that could be a really good position for him.

And how many times have they each put it inside the woodwork without the keeper stopping it?

I’ve never understood why if McCann goes 3-5-2 he sticks Molyneux at wing-back. Wasted time trying to play Sharp off Ironside earlier on in the season when Moly was right there.

Gibsons shooting is awful, much rather have hurst

[ncRover]

Hurst no goals or assists for Queen’s Park in 6 games…

[Spilsby Red]

Gibson is now the scapegoat

[i_ateallthepies]

And rightly so.  Think I saw one contribution from him all game worthy of the name.

[Spilsby Red]

People were praising him with his ball last week.  Senior had a shot in the first half that what worse than gibbons. ???
