Match Thread Gillingham v Leicester - FA Cup

[Miles Away]

Thomas on for McAteer.

He’s looked alright. Neither looks like making a proper breakthrough but solid pros.

 

[Graz]

It was a brilliant save.

There was another one after that where he got into the box but then never even got the shot away and defenders got back round him and forced him to run wide

 

[Elon Bust]

I'm pretty sure Vardy was going for the shot with that, never looked up to see if anyone was around, head down and went for goal.

Oh, he was. He's scored from tight angles like that in the past.

He's 21 now so needs to be playing regularly

He won’t at Leicester unless we have a catastrophic collapse.

When you've got defenders running back like that, the intelligent thing for strikers to do is hold back so they've got space.

And there are those strikers who gamble by getting themselves in the matter and anticipating a cross. Especially when there are so few defenders in the box and the cross goes right across the face of goal. I'm not just criticising Nacho, there wasn't a single white shirt prepared gamble and that has been a major problem for us for a while now.

 

[popillius]

It's been exactly the kind of game I expected. Messy, devoid of any really quality. It's just a very typical cup game.

Nacho, Mendy and McAteer have done well enough. That's about where it ends really.

 

[TornadoShaunUK]

It's one of those where everyone needs to be on the same wavelength. Personally I like the cutback approach but ultimately its down to the coaching to tell the entire squad to go for one or the other so there's no confusion...

 

[bocadillo]

I’d take all of them off and put Jason Jarrett on. Or Jeff Jarrett. Or Any Jeff really.

Possibly not.

 

[Willlow]

Nacho ruined every attack in the last 10 mins.. trying to keep possession and he kicks it straight out

 

[Brown Nose]

Job done.
