It was a little better than that though. The Henry block fell to Gilberto who immediately dished it off to Moore and did a 180 (almost tripping) with a very alert Moore then sending it forward to a streaking Gilberto. It was two very quality passes that made it happen after that bit of good luck.
he was a flop today
Gilberto did not have a great game yesterday, however, if everyone else on the team fought and showed as much desire as he does perhaps we would not have rolled over so easily. He was running his ass off from the first minute to the last, don't think we can say the same for too many other players out there yesterday.
Exactly. If he could of got a few of those headers on target he could of bailed us out. However his work ethic and dedication even until the final minutes when he won the free kick shows how determined he is to do his job on the field. Couldn't ask for more effort. And this is a common thing, he does this every game (except maybe when he was nursing the hip flexor, since then he has been gold).
If we ever become an elite team (SKC or RSL-like), Gilberto has the skillset to produce multiple double digit goal and assist seasons.
I wouldn't have called him a flop for Saturday's match - the whole team was shit. To single him out is unfair.
He's going to have his off games and IMO he should be allowed that leeway. Now if he goes 9 games in similar fashion - well then that's a different story.
Terrible again today. With the embarrassment that is Defoe and lieweke leaving, its hard to believe cutting bait with gila and keeping laba would have been much worse.
Bradleys season started in Roma in August 2013, included moving across the world, joining a new league and making the knockout round of a world cup. it's now Sept 2014. The guy just needs a rest.
The guy ran his heart into the ground out there.
I am wondering if Gilberto actually really preferred playing for Nelsen
FORMER FULL TIME KOOL-AID DRINKER
Gilberto resorts to pushing people over to score now... Yeah I'm kidding. That was a wonderful effort that deserved far better. Shame.
Yeah, you can really tell from that picture that he doesn't care about playing for this team, or the manager.
question, why wasnt that a yellow card?
