Supersonic Robin Posted November 10, 2023 Report Share Posted November 10, 2023 Another testament to the good work Pearson did with our younger players. Bell looked out of his depth when he first came into the team, but Pearson was able to massively improve him through summer to the point where he now doesn't look out of place in our matchday squad. Hopefully Mehmeti and Bell can both continue to develop well under Manning. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Geoff Posted November 10, 2023 Report Share Posted November 10, 2023 Will be interesting to see how de conditioned the players are when they come back. I'm fully expecting 3 points when we play Middlesborough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old_eastender Posted November 10, 2023 Report Share Posted November 10, 2023 A little surprised at this given his form over the last month has not been good, his decision making been pretty woeful. Hopefully our new coaches can improve him. Maybe the call-up will help his confidence. I know he is our top scorer with 4, but he probably should have had 8 with some of the clear-cut chances he has missed, none more-so that the open goal chance against Sheff Weds. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
