Johnny Williams > Jack Payne so far.1
-
CBT's decision making is still that of a rabbit in headlights1
-
CBT should have slipped Campbell in, instead loses the ball and releases Gillingham to attack - Elerewe blocks off the line and Gills waste the attack.1
-
I think it is fair to say that none of this current back three will be starting against Orient.2

In other news Gills strikers are shite.2 -
Surprised Holden isn’t playing May in the same half as Fraser. Those two need to strike up an understanding.1
-
Payne really not looking as sharp. The Yoof in midfield doing much more with the ball. He's fit and busy but he's a butter knife today.0

Payne having a mare
Nichols looks good for them up top.2 -
Good cross from CBT, Asiimwe couldn't get there.0
-
I've been about the best player on the pitch, which says a lot about the standard 1st half...3
-
I’m a Jack Payne believer but he’s been rank today…2
-
HT..1-1 just about fair on the first half display, but we are a bit slow in some defensive stuff, impressed with Campbell, Asiimwe, Anderson, showing some mature play, Mitchell doing well, looking forward to second half...

I expect rusty but Payne has just been pure shit1
-
AMB will lose his spot because his kicking is awful.0
-
I dont think either Goalkeeper has the No. 1 spot tied down as things stand.
But hope the one who is better at keeping the ball out the net is the one chosen1 -
Not impressed by that performance. We got a goal because we caught them cold in the first two minutes. Otherwise they have been on top.0

We look very average!Worrying really
BUT
we still have hector, jones and Camara to come in! Add 2 more strikers, and one or two wingers and we can challenge - but we look far off it currently0 -
All in all, it's a pre-season game which means very little and we have half a side of youth players.
We definitely need Payne, Mitchell and Elerewe out of the starting line up, maybe Brewer too - poor kicking and indecision.
Kind of feels like too many don't trust their younger counterparts.0 -

I know we're only missing a few key players but it is noticeable.0 -
We’ve looked so much better this preseason with Fraser on the pitch, so will be interesting to see if that continues second half.
Still not sold on us playing 3-5-2, but maybe we will look better playing it when we have the right players in place.

Was a pretty poor half. I still don't trust a man who plays CBT at left wing back.
The backline I experience was quite glaring. Allowing a Gillingham forward to control a hoofed ball with their feet and turn unchallenged. Hopefully they will learn quickly as that can't be allowed to happen in league football, and shouldn't really happen in a friendly.
Anderson impressed. Our ability to play this formation to a level that will get us out this league still a big question mark as we eat into preseason.0 -

Hector organising that back 3 is critical.3 -
Our sub bench doesn't look fantastic... Same time it's not bad. Just not good.0

on a positive note, the 4 youngsters Asiimwe, Mitchell and Deji and Anderson have looked good, Payne has been pony, May has been busy and so far looks fantastic business at 250k. I genuinely hope he keeps this up all season.2
