Midfielder Alex MacDonald joins the Gills. He played under Evans at Mansfield where played 123 games in over 3 years and scored 7 goals in 14 Scotland Under-21 games. Intriguing language used for him in this article "Macca is a top class player in League 1 when he is focused" and "The Gaffer found a way to get the best out of me while at Mansfield" which suggests he has not lived up to his ability of late.
The Gills now have a bit of experience in the squad with him and Mellis although I suspect both will need to prove themselves thoroughly if they are to succeed in the squad. I guess all the quality players need to be offset by a few cheaper punts and Evans won't stand for any nonsense.
Quality side building now: Tucker and Ogilvie are capable of playing Championship level. Roberts looked fantastic in the brief time we had him. Willock is capable of being an excellent player if he gets a run without injury and now we have Medley and Coyle as well. Oh, and I really rated Jackson first time around as was fuming when he was released. Exciting times. This is how I make the squad now.
