Man Utd midfielder Gibson delighted with personal progress this term

Manchester United midfielder Darron Gibson is delighted with the action he's seen this season.

Despite the likes of Paul Scholes, Michael Carrick, Anderson and Darren Fletcher all ahead of him in the midfield pecking order, Gibson, who has featured in four of United's last five games, says he has been pleased with his contributions to the cause so far this season.

"When you are a younger player you have to wait for your chance and when it comes along you have to take it," the midfielder told manutd.com.

"Luckily for me when I came back from injury earlier in the season, there were a few others out for a while and I got my chance.

"There is a little extra pressure because you always have to prove you can do as well, if not better, than the players who are in every week.

"I feel I have kicked on from there and have played a few games since."
