  • Sigh, I really really do like Washington. But he must be close to the worse finisher for someone of his talent. 
  • Washington is the weak link so far

    Absolutely superb so far. Amazing what happens when you keep the ball on the ground
    No coincidence that we are looking better without Stockley.

    31' Lee feeds Washington through on goal, but the Gills defence scramble back to deny the Northern Irishman. #gills 0 #cafc 1

    Washington has to finish that off. Really poor finishing, amazing from Lee though

    I missed you Ben Purrington.
  • Lee and CBT should be the first names on the team sheet for the foreseeable.

    More movement, more successful passes, more cohesion. So far so good 
    There was a lovely moment when Morgan passed forward to no one down the right hand side... Was nice to see a moment of normality returning ;)

    31' 0-1 MacDonald's cross in towards Kelman is headed away and Charlton break on the left side. Washington is through on goal, sets himself, and sees his effort brilliantly blocked by Tucker. #Gills
  • Aaarrrggghhhh!!!

    Washy resurrects the ghosts of Macca Bonne by wasting a glorious one-on-one with Jill's 'keeper. He took too much time and allowed the defender to get back to block his shot.

    The blame lays with the players hoofing it to him..how can they play so differently

    Yeah he is fantastic. A bit like a more mobile Shinnie.

    No surprise that Morgan looks a better player with him in the team.

    Gillingham come forward, and Morgan and Watson combine to clear on the edge of our area.

    Ball comes in to our area, but the ref blows up for a foul on McG.

    Frustrating in a way as Washington is probably the one reliable player that you know will keep appearing in those positions on a consistent basis

    A rarity in our team in that he has ability and also looks like he understands how to use it. Most our players either have talent and lack brains (e.g Morgan) or brains but lack talent (e.g. Washington).

    Better give CBT a longer contract before he gets other ideas!

    Great work from Morgan to push Gills back into their own half.
  • Morgan is playing like someone who is pissed at having been dropped

    Great tackle from Morgan to win possession, CBT makes a great run but muffs his cross :)

    Anyone know if CBT is right or left footed. Strange to see him tonight on the right when he played on the left on Sat.

    This has been better from Morgan so far. Pleased to see it.

    Huh... Looks like the manager has something of an idea of what squad options he has. (Whilst remembering Gills are only 2 points ahead of us before today)

    Good first 20. Last 10 a bit more hit and miss, but we look a lot better than Saturday.
