Gabby is a legend.
Im amazed Heskey didnt get it
I think Given would have probably made a decent skipper.

Overated by the Geordie obsessed media, we should have known really as they were never famous for their defending. Probably one of the worst goalies we've had at dealing with crosses since Burridge. In the current atmosphere of 'blame it all on McLeish' he's got away with a few in recent weeks. 2 at Arsenal and another two corners on Saturday.

I think he may be struggling with his confidence like a lot of our players at the moment.
For the time being Gabby is the right call.
