WATCH: Kieran Gibbs’ bottle trick is the most consistency an Arsenal player has ever shown

Kieran Gibbs hasn't quite delivered on his early Arsenal promise, but the England international is still young enough to turn things around.

The 27-year-old has had an injury-hit career, while more recently he has found himself playing second fiddle to Nacho Monreal on the left-hand side of the Gunners defence. When you spend so much time on the sidelines, you can feel sorry for yourself, or you can develop another talent. Something which will serve you well in life - you know, like flipping a bottle so it lands upright. What do you mean that has no practical application aside from making Chuba Akpom really excited for a few seconds. https://twitter.com/CalArsenal/status/807269274347798530 Sure, that equaliser in the North London Derby last season was impressive, but this is on another level entirely. Just look at David Ospina's face - we've never seen the guy so excited, on or off the pitch. And Arsenal fans were similarly blown away by the best thing one of their players has done since that Robin van Persie volley against Charlton. https://twitter.com/TerryDeeks_16/status/807317369563582465 https://twitter.com/GoldieNathan/status/807322561856073728 https://twitter.com/OzilVision10/status/807451657978204161 https://twitter.com/Scartissue94/status/807421323991363584 https://twitter.com/hgregory25/status/807419265334837248 https://twitter.com/MaaaaaaartinUgh/status/807398640096518144 It's great to see Arsenal players showing plenty of bottle in high-pressure situations. Perhaps this is their year after all.
