Same as gioblues 1. Ogie 2. Masterson 3. Malone. ......If I was being totally honest - I'd have to say Odoh ( Harrogate No.9 )... I would love to see him in Gills midfield.
Not going to lie was meant to be seeing the game yesterday, but change of plan and went to the pub instead, was going to get home in time to watch the game on Ifollow (£10 international week), but someone fell asleep lol. Anyway because I subscribe to Ifollow, I can watch a full match replay now, I'll give my choices/view later.
First 9.5 mins has been all Gillingham, namely Mahoney, Jonny Williams along with Alexander. Jonny Williams had a good shot on the Harrowgate goal that was blocked by Bonne's bonce! 14 mins in first Harrowgate attack. 15+ mins best attempt on goal so far by Scott Malone 17+ mins good attempt by Shaun Williams saved, but the resulting corner led to a Harrowgate break away. Commentators saying exciting game, I have to agree. 24+ mins drinks break. Some nice little runs for Harrowgate down the wing by their number 20 Ramsay, but his final ball is letting him down. 27+ mins their number 9 Odoh down the other wing, having a nibble. 30+ mins Harrowgate getting more possession in this spell. 34+ mins crucial tackle by Ogie in the box. 34+ mins sliding tackle by Jonny Williams picks up a yellow card, their player down. 39+ mins attempt by Scott Malone trickles wide, some great play by Alexander in the build up to it. HT: 0-0 I will leave our player selections to oneside for now, but have to say their number 20 has really put himself about.
Start of the second half and the Medway Stand is empty lol....that sun would have been a killer. 48+ mins both teams have an attack, ours coming from a ball in by Scott Malone. Prior to that their number 7 with the first shot on target the whole game. 52+ mins this does seem very much like the Orient first half, where for some reason we are not getting the best out of Bonne, is that tactics, I suspect so. 58 mins Jayden Clarke on for Lapslie. (J) Clarke immediate impact, just the final touch letting him down on this ocassion. Odoh settling things down and causing his own problems against us for the opposition, wins a freekick. Shaun Williams picks up a yellow for his troubles. Meant to say earlier that Harrowgate had a good breakaway attack, with their number 12 & 9 combining, but Odoh fails to deliver thankfully for the Gills. 63+ mins very poor ball by Bonne and no one there either, met with growns from the fans, we are getting ready to bring Nichols on. 65+ mins Bonne off, got to say I'm not surprised. Not sure what we can do to make it work for this lad, over to the tactical experts for that one. 67+ mins and Odoh getting more into the game. Harrowgate player down for a considerable amount of time and obvious concern. This heat probably not helping. 90 mins, 13 mins stoppage time. 94+ mins GOAL! Shaun Williams harsh on Harrowgate but it's wins like this that put you top of the league, in what can only be described as a bundled goal.
1. Alexander this guy did not stop working in this heat, the more I see this guy the more I'm impressed 2. Malone probably the closest of attempts for us. 3. Jonny Williams, he's become my engine room guy. If the names are bolded above it's for recognition, but my final selections are based on overall contribution as a team rather than mentions. My top 3 for them would be the following... 1. 20 Ramsay 2. 9 Odoh 3. 12 Folarin
Why that Mahoney keep taking the corners from the left outswingers. A right footer should have taken them after they were constantly cleared. When he took them on other side they were inswingers. Much more effective and where we scored from.
