I thought gamble was excellent,a super player.
I just checked the RTE player.
I had thought that Limerick started in a 4-5-1 shape but changed after 10 minutes or so by pushing O'Leary onto Ndo to make a 4-2-3-1.
The video clearly shows that Limerick were actually in a 4-2-3-1 shape from the start with O'Leary at the top of the triangle, occupying Ndo.
Case closed.

Fail to prepare,prepare to fail--R.keane.
He seems to be regaining something of his form of old. First Division football can't have helped him, it would take a while to make the mental step up again. Glad he has. Himself, Bradley and O'Leary is a proper Premier Division quality midfield.
I thought Gamble had a great game against Sligo. You have to look at what he does off the ball, he is a quality defensive midfielder. A consistent midfield three of Gamble, O'Leary and Bradley is as good as there is out there in this League.
I wouldn't agree that that constitutes a balanced midfield three.
Regardless of the way the three is configured (i.e. with a number 10 or an anchorman), you ideally want a screener, a passer, and a creative goalscorer. There are variations on that, but that's generally the template.
We have two passers and a screener.
