Why does nobody put this lad in the starting eleven, if you say he's an impact player, well he doesn't even get minutes off the bench! Why oh why?? Looks the most likely any time he plays!!

If you are determined to play a narrow formation with wing backs you haven't got room for a winger. And Robinson, Neilson and DM all appear to believe that you get width from your full backs or wing backs. So you play wrong footed strikers wide in the hope that they will cut in and score. The fact that it doesn't work with our calibre of players doesn't appear to have dawned on any of them, doh!

Perhaps Nesbitt doesn’t pass enough. Wants to take on defenders instead of playing the MK Way.

Or perhaps DM knows all about him and wants to find out about other players before the run-in, for example, see how Cisse plays up the left wing, how pinball Agard does as a target linkman up front, how we cope without Ward at the back.

So, you’re not aware that one of the philosophical foundations upon which DM built his coaching reputation and produced a conveyor belt of exceptional youth talent for us was based upon players taking on their opposite number? Have a read of some of the articles he’s had published over the years. It’s all about the ability to beat a player.

He got booted out of the FA for not buying into their pass and move philosophy. ;)

Nesbitt is adventurous and scares the crap out of defences, has pace and trickery with an eye for goal.

So expect him not to play

Dan’s obviously fallen out with him. He should go train with Charlton.

With good reason.

We should only pick players with good barnets. Sell all the rest.

:D In all honesty I’ve got no idea why Nesbitt doesn’t get on the pitch.

And I don’t think Agard is a bad player either, it’s just that playing with his back to goal doesn’t seem to be his forte.
