Gabby

[Fin Feds Dad]

I have been a huge critic of Gabby - so credit where its due last night.

He was like the Gabby of old.........and tore Lescott apart.

They will be hugely worried about him for the cup match now.

Same again Saturday - and for the rest of the season / contract please.

[PaulWinch again]

Last night he was very good, but he needs to do that on a much more regular basis.

I've a feeling this week (at some point) Gabby is going to turn up for work. Fingers crossed it's on a match day.

Wouldn't that be nice.

Ordinarily he does tend to raise his game against the Boggies. I pray to McGrath he does so this week, because I'm not sure Sherwood fancies any alternate option to dropping Gabby. He's highly likely to play.

Legs and fingers crossed that tonight is the night...

Gabby finally showed up for work. Why oh why didn't I put a bet on???! Congratulations Supertom :-)

His record in derbies is very good.

[Bad English]

Yes Gabby, as I said on the match thread thread, you can still fuck off but if you keep that up until the rest of the season I may let you off.

He was pretty good for about twenty minutes, and for the rest of the time wasn't quite as criminally anonymous as he has been. There was also one really Gabby-esque run in the second half. All in all, substantially better.

the one where Lescott chopped him down was superb. When he is up for it he can be a brilliant player, full of pace and power. No defender wants to deal with it. Let's hope for a return to those days as we've barely seen it for the past two seasons.

I liked his celebration.

[Mortimer's Bear]

I don't know if I wanted to hug him or slap him last night, why wait until now to play like that?

Super Tim said he thought Benteke and Gabby were the best strike partnership outside the top 5/6 teams

Now whether he actually believes this or not and even whether it's true or not is Irrelevant, this is exactly the confidence boosting stuff Sherwoods good at,
 he is just so positive about things, just what we need at the moment

[OCD]

They have the potential to be. It's up to them to put it together on a consistent basis and for the rest of the team to supply them.

[Legion]

It's excellent player-management.

[Mortimer's Bear]

It's excellent player-management.

Totally agree, similar to MO'N with Ashley Young.

[silhillvilla]

I liked his celebration.

Hopefully Weimann took note.
If you're doing the Shhhhhhh celebration , aim for the away end, not the home end.

He's probably not far out.

Take out the current top five, I'd say West Ham, Spurs and Stoke could probably have an argument over it. Other than that though...
