Marquis of Millwall makes big impression

26 April 2011 11:00
Millwall youngster John Marquis has given manager Kenny Jackett a welcome selection dilemma over the final games of the season. Marquis has started the last two matches in the absence of suspended strikers Steve Morison and Neil Harris and the injured Kevin Lisbie, and has bagged three goals to boost the Lions' play-off bid. "To be honest, he only came into the side because we were struggling for other options because of suspension," said assistant boss Joe Gallen. "But he's now scored three times in the last two games and really taken his chance. "When he got into the team back in December, it was at a time when we were struggling a bit. "But he has now come back, he's matured as a player, and he's shown with his finishing that he can be a real talent."
