Good luck to him. Sad he never lived up to his 07-09 potential.

Kieran Gibbs - played 50 games in the last two years, he's 27 has 10 years experience in the EPL, and still has a full contract in him .... sold for just 7m
Kevin Wimmer - played 31 games in the last two years, he's 24 with just two seasons in the EPL ... sold for 18m
are we some sort of charity give away? ..... no wonder Spuds make a transfer profit and we don't .....
Wimmer was probably on 10k pw. Gibbs is probably 70k odd.
Lower the asking price allows the buying club to use more of their total budget on paying Gibbs what he wants.
It's the cost of having big wages and it doesn't really matter as we have loads to cover it. Better he goes and lives his life than doesn't kick a ball again for ages.

No
A respectful clap
That used to be reserved for all ex players
Doesn't seem rum for a player that was involved in 3 fa cup wins
