Tony Hibbert

[Eric Djemba-Djemba]

It seems like a terrible way to defend Hibbert but to suggest he has the ability of Coleman and decided not to use it is unjust. I think he made the very best of his talents, I believe that if he had the skill to score then he would have done so.

If he doesn't have the ability to score once in over 300 games then that just shows him up as the dreadful footballer he is.

Hibbert had a shot on goal once - winter of 2007.

If this utter mess is playing at Wembley next week I think I might run on the pitch.

Don't embarrass him as you will probably move quicker!lol

Deary me, played over 300 premier games and he is dreadful. How did that happen ???

In 2005 he had a chance to win a game against Birmingham at Goodison for us. His shot was more like a pass back.

There's plenty of dreadful players that have conned careers in this league. Osman being another.

Just imagine if he played next weekend. It was bad enough watching him at Wembley in 2009 at his peak.

Right place, right time. He was an average defender playing with good players and kept his head down working hard.

If he'd spent his entire career in the Championship/battling relegation with a team in the top flight no one would've batted an eyelid.

Osman the England international?

 

[EFCPaul]

The last time he played at Wembley he got sunstroke and made Florent Malouda look like Gareth Bale. That was 7 years ago.

If we play him next week we deserve to be humiliated again.

Didn't a wayward cross hit the bar v Norwich away a couple of years ago??

Osman the England international?

All you need is 2 good games to get called up to the English squad. Well done to the kopite grass for his friendly cap and one against San Marino.

I'm better than him and ossie and kone and gibbo....

....yep, he hasn't got the talent to be a regular top league full back but regardless it should not have stopped him scoring a goal. He can kick a ball, he's got a fair dig on him and he never once scored a goal.
