The Swansea City midfielder will travel with his team-mates to Histon on Tuesday night looking to progress into the fourth round of the competition and a tie with either Bristol City or Portsmouth.<\/p>\n
It will be the first taste of FA Cup action for Gomez and he insists he is tough enough to cope with the tactis that Histon will throw at them.<\/p>\n
Speaking ahead of the game, Gomez said “I know Histon will be physical and there will be lots of contact – but I’m ready for it.<\/p>\n
“There is contact in every Championship game so Histon will be no different.<\/p>\n
“Their players might try and target me and if they do I won’t let it affect my performance.<\/p>\n
“In fact I hope they give away a lot of free kicks because that will help us to score.<\/p>\n
“I’m sure the atmosphere will be hostile and Histon will try to stop me playing but I won’t retaliate or lose my focus.<\/p>\n
“People will be looking at me because I’m one of the new foreign players at Swansea and it’s my first FA Cup game.<\/p>\n
“But I’m really looking forward to the match and I’m sure we’ll be OK”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
