Ben Gibson

Just noticed he was an unused sub for Norwich yesterday.

I’m sure he was in the England squad not that long ago and Burnley’s record signing.
 


He's played 1 game in the last two years so it was always very unlikely he would just go straight into our starting eleven now we actually have our centre-backs fit again. It's a case of whether or not we keep Godfrey. If he goes, Gibson slots straight in. If not, then he comes in ahead of Zimmermann, our current captain, so unlikely there too. Bearing in mind the above, no surprise at all to see him start on the bench.

We have a season loan for him, with agreement to make it permanent for £8m should we be promoted.
