I actually see Nabil playing with his back to goal as a positive. His hold up play is far superior to anyone else we have now or in the past few seasons. When he receives the ball on his chest he is always looking for someone to lay it off to, unfortunately rarely was anybody available! His heading is so much better than Tom or Jack Bowen, Nabil actually wins the ball and does not just try aimless flick ons. Hopefully both McLeod and Dove will gain the benefit. Plus of course he can score goals on his own and takes penalties. Welcome Home Nabil

Excellent news to have Shariff back, hopefully he can bang in a load of goals for us,
