Nacho Monreal
That’s right, the ultimate Kieran Gibbs supporter has chosen Nacho Monreal as the best-choice left back to face Chelsea. But rest assured, I’m a bit fidgety in doing so. Monreal is a steady, consistent defender, whereas Kieran Gibbs can have his highs which far exceed Monreal, but he’s also prone to lows like we saw against Reading.
I was not at all impressed with Gibbs against Reading, as he looked lost on the offensive side and befuddled on the defensive side.
Regardless, the FA Cup is Gibbs’ competition and everything else firmly belongs to Monreal.
