TomThumb84 Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 Deserves his own thread. Has taken a lot of stick on here with some even labelling him as “our worst ever signing” - which by the way was both completely wrong and laughable. Has always been a quality player and players respond in different ways, early days but looks a different player since NP came in. That finish was incredibly hard and he made it look easy. A happy Nahki Wells is a vital player in this league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victory Park Reds Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 Last 2 games he’s been playing in his position. Keep playing him central and he will score goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lew-T Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 The bloke is a winner. He’s also a very handy goalscorer when you give him decent service, who knew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloke is a goalscorer, give him chances he gets goals, today’s finish was superb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFCGav Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 I’m buzzing for him. We all knew his quality, it was hard seeing it not go for him. He’s a bagsman in this league and I’m buzzing to see what’s next from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Team Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 He’s clearly a top championship striker who needs a manager he can respect who brings the best out of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

77 punk Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 we bought wells to score goals like the one today, he is our twenty goal man with the right service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Oil Services Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 That @EnclosureSurge - what happened to him, by the way? - said months ago: he's quite good, if you play him down the middle. It's not rocket science. ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomThumb84 Posted February 27, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 Might be me but looks at least a yard quicker in the last two games too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordofthebling Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 Does look a different player,but doesn't excuse him forgetting how to run for 10 games or so... Fair play, he played well today and took his goal well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the key...he’s a winner. Bents and Kalas are winners. Since Cotts left, we have been passive, soft, with far too few willing to take responsibility, far too many willing to accept defeat. That mentality is corrosive on winners. It affects them in different ways. Wells was the first to go - into hiding in his case, him being played out of position an aggravating factor. Kalas was the next to go with reference to the ‘better coach winning’ and then reaching breaking point with other units in the team a week or so ago. Bents as a keeper is slightly more isolated from things , but hats off to him as he came going - giving even better performances. Hopefully, Nige will now build a team of winners.

Davefevs Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 Interesting that he scored his goal having been pushed onto the left wing. Very good finish though. Thought he was key second half, with Sessegnon in getting up the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomThumb84 Posted February 27, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 Also probably disappointed not to bag his second but what a burst that late on. Things like that are the difference. A week ago he would have sat in ready to defend again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHAZ MICHAELS Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 Played wide left from about the 35th minute. Put in a shift though and took his goal well. Hopefully there will be many more goals from wherever he plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very good finish though. Thought he was key second half, with Sessegnon in getting up the pitch. Thought it was quite a narrow 'wide left' though, would you agree? More running the left channels rather than wings, didn't see him having to put in crosses or attack from the sidelines. Nice and close to Fam for several knock downs and able to drift in late to meet the cross for our first. 4-2-3-1 but, a compact one. EDIT - Sorry just saw your post above as I was writing this one!

Mr Popodopolous Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 You play him through the middle and what do you know, he improves- is more comfortable! Better service too- he did reference helping out wide in post match interview too of course but Wells in the middle and he is a reliable- not necessarily stellar- but reliable performer at this level.
