Steve Leslie has provided Shrewsbury manager Paul Simpson with plenty of food for thought ahead of the visit of Barnet.Having been restricted to substitute appearances in Town's previous two games, the midfielder started Saturday's clash at Macclesfield and scored the only goal of the game with a delightful 25-yard finish into the top corner.Simpson dropped striker Jake Robinson in order to incorporate Leslie at the Moss Rose and he now must decide whether to keep faith with the same system, and indeed players, against the Bees.Captain Graham Coughlan returned to the heart of defence after a hamstring injury, pushing Kelvin Langmead out to full-back in place of Danny Taylor, who dropped to the bench.Regular right-back Dean Holden (hamstring) is expected to return in the not too distant future along with striker Jake Simpson (knee).
