Re the others, the manager obviously thinks so as he worked hard to get him. It could be that there is something about his style of play that he is looking for and he he fits into the shape of midfield that he wishes to play - he doesn''t seem to like "wingers" in the more traditional sense.

walks on water 0 Posted August 21, 2008 Leicester fans raved about him, considered him their best player and were gutted that the terms of the loan-then-buy were void following relegation.Until his injury, I thought Reading were favourites to land Bell.Steve Coppell''s no mug.

Jules 0 Posted August 21, 2008 By the looks of this Bell knows how to shoot from outside the box - which would certainly be a help in our current situation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheCardinal 0 Posted August 21, 2008 I think Bell, when fit and playing well, will add to the team and help add a bit more creativity to the side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jules 0 Posted August 21, 2008 My neighbour is a season ticket holder at the Walker''s Bowl and an ex-ref (actually he gets his season ticket free because he worked for the Leicestershire FA for about 40 years) and he really rates him. Not precisely his words, but if I may paraphrase: given Leicester''s squad last season, Bell was like finding a pound coin in a turd! If all my neighbour says is true about him I can''t see Crofty retaining his place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Visited family in Leicester 3-4 times during last season and watched him play 3 times and he stood out a mile from the rest of their team.
