Kieran Gibbs has issued a statement on Twitter explaining his actions against Everton which saw him given a straight red and also his manager when he confronted referee Mike Dean at the half time whistle. West Brom were very much in the game when the incident happened but went on to lose 5-2 in the match.
Kieran Gibbs said “I take full responsibility for today’s game, I let the team and supporters down with a moment of stupidity. I have always tried to play the game fairly and will make sure I keep disciplined when provoked. I should not have reacted and for that I apologise.”
