While neither are ready to play in the PL, Astley as RB and Gibson as LB are probably both the “natural” 3rd choices for the two full back positions . I know we’ll probably go unnatural e.g Kenny at LB , Baines or whomever covering RB but it wouldn’t hurt to expose both youngsters to 1st team training to cover potential injuries later on in our non-season.
 

Everton u18s 2 points off top,return tomorrow to u18s league action 11am home v Blackburn in the 1st of 2 games in 3 days,the 2nd is home to man utd u18s Tuesday night which is LIVE on MUTV with a 6pm ko

While the Leaders by 1 point at the Minute,Everton u23s return monday night 7pm ko at Swansea,and that game is due to be shown LIVE on Swansea's website

...it’s a little bit like the Holgate CB/FB debate with Gibson, but I have come around to thinking he has the bulk and quality to play CB. Gibson could be a CB who can play LB whereas Holgate is a RB who can play CB.

Saying that, with Baines’ contract up in the summer and Robinson not setting the world alight on loan, I wonder if Gibson is being tested to be Digne’s deputy next season.

I suspect Gibson will go on loan before we find that out. Robinson has been injured for ages now remember and is a full national team starter.

...Robinson is a full international but the very best youngsters don’t have to go on loan. We paid decent money for Gibson and he’s been a regular starter and skipper at U23 level even though he’s younger. If any of these lads are very talented, I expect them to leapfrog others in the queue.

So they should, I just don’t see it happening in PL football these days, can see him going out for a year in the Summer. Wouldn’t even be surprised if Baines got one more year.
