I was going to say Keane when I first made the point but was scared I would be the only one who can see that comparison, glad I'm not.
If we could buy a player like that in January it would be fantastic, if they had the passion and snideness that Keane had as well they'd be loved here. Peter Reid ey?
Ay Peter Reiad mate, even Super Lee Carsley. Ive also said for a long time on here, there is far more to Dazzler Gibson (offensively) then the defensive midfield role he has been playing superbly since hes been with us.
He reminds of Keane at the same age, actually prob more refined and a better reader of the game at the same age. He ozzes potential, like those who were able to spot in Mofro a mile of, that drive and energy to push a team on - the foundation and hub that all happens around, the nous of being able to read and postion yourself during a game, with but more importantly without the ball and that unhoned ability marked by the odd mistake that get knocked out of them on the way to becoming the class finished article.
Mark my words on this McCarthy lad.
