The reason why that is being said is because "they" are looking for excuses for him (Gilberto) not to be in the team and if he should be there by all means, then he should add goals too.ExiledInNewcastle said:Funny how people are saying he should score more goals, but no one ever complains Vieira doesn't score enough! Or Parlour. Or Edu..
absolutely true.ExiledInNewcastle said:The more artists you have in a team, the more important the unheralded grafters are, and Gilberto is absolutely vital to us.
This is the view I subscribe to most.I'd have him in the first team on most ocassions but think his midfield spot should be rotated. Vieira, Bobby n Freddie have the cemented possies in midfield and I think Gilberto, Edu and to a lesser degree Parlour should share the final spot. Little difference between em imho so I think we should make sure whoever plays is as fresh as possible.
