Darron Gibson to Leave United?
- Thread starter Chirag
- Start date
After watching how positive, nimble and attack minded Cleverely was I don't think Gibbo will even get a single game this season. He really should press for a transfer as there are teams out there who can use a solid midfielder.
Look at Ben Foster career after he left us (doing alright). Some players just aren't cut out for the mighty red shirt. No shame in that.

He's not good enough for United but still a decent player for the Premier League. I feel sorry for the lad, he's a United kid and has been treated badly by some of the fans, it must hurt. That Twitter debacle was painful to witness. He's done his best for the club, hopefully he gets a move and has a successful career. A transfer is best for everyone, especially him.
If we get Sneidjer and Gibson stays, it will be him, Cleverley and Pogba playing in FA and CC games for us this season.
Muamba, Holden, Davies, Reo-Coker, Pratley and Eagles. I'd say they're fine in that area.
Would love to see him succeed even though it is obviously not going to be in Utd.
Winston Borgarde.
It could be the case that he wants to wait until next season and leave on a free. If that were the case he might be able to command £30-40k a week.
In all fairness I can see Fergie letting him leave on a free this season, it would save a mil or two in wages and free up a squad place.

This
He would be better than all of them if given a run in the team.
I personally think he'll do alright at a mid table club.
He works hard and is a half decent player but if he wants to push on he needs regular football and he isn't likely to get that at United.
So, no news then?
i think it depends on whether we bring someone in...
can't see him leaving if we don't sign someone else - would leave us too short
I disagree, I see him going and I don't see us bringing in a midfielder. To not be brought on pre-season and to be left in the reserves is a clear indication he's not in Ferguson's plans. Even Pogba was ahead of him in the pecking order to go to the States with the team. We're just waiting for a team to take him really.
I think Pogba was ahead of him in the pecking order to go to the States because Gibson's transfer to Sunderland was still possible and he was waiting for their offer that, unfortunately for him, never came...
Gibbo could have a successful career in the Prem or abroad. Wish him the best wherever he plays this year.
I thought it was his wage demands?
I heard that Blackburn were sniffing about too. Apropos Blackburn, Steve Keane claims he is in talks with SAF about a couple of loan deals. Could Gibbo go on loan, or is he being sold?
"If he had been Spanish then maybe he would have been valued more."
Sorry, Xavi said that about Scholes...
Jesus, Mother of God, thats £19,231 per week & £38,462 per week & there's me scraping for a holiday to Gran Canaria..
Footballers - pffttt....
Did Gibson get registered to play in PL by United?
It's an admittedly complicated family set-up, what with the two fathers and the ghost guy, but that's definitely wrong.
I'd say you have until the day after the transfer deadline...
I cant see where you're coming from but i know where you're going to - you blasphemin heathen:
there were threads about this
Sunderland changed their offer after agreeing something different
Gibbo, rightly walked away from the deal
Fergie wasn't too happy with Sunderland over it either. He came out & said they were wrong in the way they treated Darron & he was going to have a word or two with Brucey over it. I heard nothing but the Blackburn rumour since.
I think he'll be at Blackburn by the end of the window. Good I can add him to my fantasy team.
I quite like the idea of a loan deal. He finished last season with one or two surprisingly good performances. Given an extended run of games, maybe he might surprise us all? (ok, so it's not very likely)
That'd be a good idea if he wasn't out of contract in May.
When one considers the quality we have in CM he's still got a chance of making it. We're talking about players like Fletcher and Ando not Iniesta and Scholes in his prime.
He's 24, I think he's too old for a loan to be honest.
What a sophisticated way you have of rating central midfielders. "Iniesta and Scholes in his prime" or "not Iniesta and Scholes in his prime". So simple yet so effective.
erm...thanks?
He just has to put the Barcelona midfielders in any thread related to any midfielder on this planet.
Barca should be our target as Liverpool were at the beginning of SAF's rule. Rest assured though that there are various midfielders who can provide more creativity and quality then Fletcher, Carrick and Ando.
Now if Gibson was a defender/winger/striker then I'd say that he has no chance of making it. Unfortunately we don't have that amount of quality in CM.
Is he not out of contract at the end of the season?
Think the only way he'll go is on a perm deal. Don't see how a loan would benefit us, he's out on contract next summer.
