Gibbs ready for England - Wenger

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger believes Kieran Gibbs can force his way into England's 2010 World Cup squad.

England coach Fabio Capello watched left-back Gibbs, 20, turn in a fine display during the Gunners' 2-1 Carling Cup win over Liverpool on Wednesday.

"Gibbs will get games and has already this season," said Wenger of the England Under-21 star, who has made 27 first-team appearances for Arsenal.

"If Capello asks my opinion, I'll give a positive one. He's ready to step up."




- If he asks my opinion, I'd laugh in his face on the issue. What utter tosh.

There is a better left full back at Reading a year younger than Gibbs who should get in before him.

Mr wenger needs to have a re-think after Gibbs performance in the under 21's the other week - Weak link being the correct phrase to describe his defending.

And who's place he going to take on the trip south? Ashley or Waynes lol

Remember, this is the same fool that was telling us a year or so ago, his SPANISH goalkeeper should be picked by England cause he is better!

I absolutely agree Tick. If he's so great.. why is Manone number 1 at the moment..?
