Robbie McKenzie

And that's the thing, isn't it? I think wing-back is our area where, and certainly right wing-back is a problem, because in an ideal situation, could you look at a midfield three currently at the moment, if you've managed to get a wing-back...

Potentially, you could even maybe look at McKenzie out there or Alvarez, even put Alvarez out there.

He said that he can play fullback.

And then could you look at playing then a midfield three of Freeman, Waldock and Brophy? And having more legs in there, they're able to fight and scrap a little bit more.

Even when the ball turns over and you're out of possession, they're able to get back quicker.

I think he needs to try his utmost best to not have that same midfield as last year.

He needs to try and find some formula, whether it's a diamond in midfield, And it ends up a narrow diamond with Brophy, Waldock, Freeman and maybe Coleman at the base with about four and McKenzie right back because McKenzie's played right back before and pretty solid.

Yeah.

And the side showed one change from the side that took on Newport and it was, um, we hoped that we might see McManus come back in to, you know, let Brophy push forward, but that wasn't the case.

So we had made one change in, in midfield and that was, uh, Little returned from, from the start for the first time since the opening game against Walsall, uh, alongside McKenzie and Wardock.

So we saw the, the same midfield as we saw last season, which we were trying to get away from.

Yeah, definitely.

Yeah, I think so.

I think it's a hard one 'cause I, I, I was...

You know, I'm critical of that midfield and I, I'm sure many Gills fans are the last few seasons, you know, that Armani-Little, Coleman, McKenzie sort of trio, if you like.

And, um, the last two seasons they've sort of helped us get to, to 17th place.
