More on Nelson

When we first signed him he looked excellent. I dont think any pools supporters thought otherwise. He scored a 40 yard screamer on his debut and the rest of the next 2 seasons or so, he was excellent. Once the defenders around him started changing (we lost Chris Westwood) nelson seemed to go downhill.

I suspect Nels needs someone with pace around him (as he has little). If Norwich's other defenders are slow then nelson will probably stuggle too. His distribution is dire, one of those players who could hit 50 punts upfield and the laws of probability would tell you that half would go to your own team but they never did.

He is better than conference level, at league 2 level he is fine. He just struggles against pace in league 1
