Many Sheffield Wednesday fans have been slamming the performance of Lewis Gibson in their 1-0 home win against Bolton in League One on Saturday afternoon.
Darren Moore’s team were spared their blushes when Lee Gregory scored midway through the second half to give them all three points at Hillsborough.
Gibson endured a pretty torrid first half in the eyes of several Owls supporters and was even taken off by Moore before the second half began.
The defender, who is on loan from Everton, failed to make a single interception or tackle and also lost possession of the ball on 13 separate occasions (Sofascore), which is quite alarming considering that he only played for 45 minutes.
Journalist Joe Crann actually thought that he was ‘excellent’ and ‘so comfortable’ with the ball, but a lot of Wednesday supporters seemed to disagree with him, as shown by the regularity with which the 21-year-old lost possession.
