Gillingham’s loan recruit George Williams is confident he can be the man to fill Bradley Dack’s boots.

The Gills are awaiting news on how long 15-goal Dack will be sidelined with a hamstring injury after he limped off during Saturday’s 2-1 home defeat to Chesterfield.

Williams joined Gills on loan from Fulham earlier this month and is looking forward to making an impact after two substitute outings – starting with Tuesday night’s trip to Fleetwood in League 1.

“I am gutted for Brad,” said Williams. “If he is injured and there is a chance for me then I will do my best, and do what he has been doing throughout the whole of the season.

“I played that position on Saturday and feel comfortable doing it. I enjoyed it.

“It is a key role, especially when you play the diamond formation, like we play, being the point of it. That is the position that takes you from midfield to attack. Hopefully if I get the chance to play there again I will do a good job.

“I have come on at Oldham and played the majority of the game on Saturday. On Tuesday, I will be hoping to start.

“I am generally quite fit and work hard in training when I am not playing, to make sure I keep up my fitness levels so that when I do get a chance I am ready.”
