No I don’t think it is mate maybe our first choice up front but no way the midfield or defenceSouthbank said:If that really is our first choice 11 God help us. Thankfully it won't be when the two new midfielders come in next week. Also Bell looks past it, Mesic insteadMesic starts over bell but apart from that?0 -

Ali looks good lol0

That was lovely control from Leaburn but no idea why he went for the big switch0

But we don’t know if he is a square peg do we?, it was mentioned he had played in midfield before we signed him.fenaddick said:

Well Leaburn has looked incredible since he’s come on.
Thats about the only positive.
Getting played far more easier through our midfield since Coventry came off…4 -
Oh good, Burke and JRC coming on 🙄0

sigh* that half time reboot took longer than expected. Who's down in the 6 yard box?0

Why isn’t TC shooting there ?2
-
Can definitely see us scoring more goals next season with this formation2
-
That was a nice attacking move, no idea if TC was trying to cushion it to Knibbs, shoot or control it2
-
TCs finishing is awful3

No I don't rate himswords_alive said:
Are you sure you're not mixing Bell up with some other player or two? Ok today not so hot, but your opinion seems harsh, and maybe mistaken?Treacey1969 said:
Thought it last year Bell is a worse option than Macca. Can't pass (very poor), can't stay with his man, no goal threat (ever) and only looks comfortable on the ball.CafcSteve said:Bell, Cov, Doc & Ramsay looking very poor.0 -
