Gillingham manager Peter Taylor still has belief in his strikeforce ahead of Saturday's League 1 clash at Doncaster.

Goals from defender John Egan and Leon Legge have helped the Gills pick up some crucial results recently.

Taylor wants his strikers to begin replicating some of their training-ground form and he’s confident they will.

He said: “I felt there were good signs on Saturday but not always for 90 minutes.

“Luke Norris did some good things for as long as he lasted and had his volley gone in, it would have been the goal of the century. That shows just what he is capable of.

“I saw some good things there and am seeing some good things with Brennan Dickenson.

“He is getting better each game. If he was to show people what he does in training on the pitch, where he volleys balls in for fun, he has got such power with his left foot.

“Cody McDonald looked as sharp as anything when he came off the bench and that’s exactly what you need from a substitute.

“We have some good forwards here and there were signs where I don’t think they are far away.

“We know Kedwell is going to get fitter. He is working hard at that. Antonio German is another one. We need our strikers to now score some goals.”
