BOSS Adie Arnold believes new recruit Lee Burch will add some much-needed steel and experience to his youthful Verwood Town squad.

Burch, who netted a debut goal in Saturday’s 1-1 draw at Fareham, will be pushing for a start when Potters host his former club Bemerton tonight (7.45pm).

Arnold said: “He will give us a more physical presence. He can play anywhere through the middle and is an experienced campaigner.

“He came off the bench to score at Fareham and has given me a selection headache. If he starts, he would no doubt be fired up against his old club.”

Arnold added: “We have drawn with some of the top teams but also lost to the one at the bottom. We need to find some consistency.”

Potters: (from) Lynch, Evans, O’Connell, Kelly, M Smith, Dyer, Saxby, Webb, Long, Satterley, Gajic, Burch, J Smith, Murray, Hall.
