White 0 Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 From a curious BWFC supporter, I'm wondering how you feel our former "Mr Bolton" has performed since his January move (stoopid challenges leading to blatant red cards aside...)? We at Bolton have felt for the past 2 seasons that he's lacking a certain something, definitely not the player he was. What do you lot think? Cheers, and good luck for your battle against the Dreaded Drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 14623 Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 I would have Barton and Guthrie in the centre first choice. However they were both injured so it was a good buy at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We needed him desperately as we had only Butt fit in the centre IIRC. So I think most people were 'he's decent but he'll do'' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackies the Lad 0 Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 He is just not good enough. But we had nothing better at the time, too many injuries and too many under-performers. Could and should add Ryan Taylor as part of the question, Taylor is complete shite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Onion 0 Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 He's been shit so far. It's patently fitness with him - as SBR said, if you can't run you can't play in the Premier League. He'll never be a top player but he could be decent enough if he could get round the pitch. It's a disgrace really that players paid what they're paid can't even fulfill the basic requirement of being in the best physical condition possible to do their job. Shearer places great emphasis on professionalism and Dowie is known to be a stickler for fitness; I imagine Mr Nolan might find training a fair bit tougher than previously in the coming weeks.

Papa Lazaru 0 Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 He has been a big disappointment, nobody was expecting a world beater and we knew that his form of the last 2 years or so was nothing like he'd been before that, but he's offered nothing so far.

David Kelly 1483 Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 He has been a big disappointment, nobody was expecting a world beater and we knew that his form of the last 2 years or so was nothing like he'd been before that, but he's offered nothing so far. This. It just shows how bad our midfield has been that we even considered him let alone that a lot (me included) were pretty happy with us signing him. It's a disgrace how much our midfield has been ignored since Robson was sacked. The most important position in the team (Liverpool are in contention for the league and champions league mainly because of one great midfielder) and we've had five managers who haven't addressed it. That's as big a reason why our team is so shit as anything else! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Hova Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Most pleasing noises to come from the club lately is Big Al saying about the need to improve the supply to the strikers. About fucking time someone running the club stopped being oblivious to this. I was expecting us to sell Duff/Jonas in the summer and sign a couple more big tackling defensive-type midfielders. Realistically we need two new wingers and a creative central player, who I'd play with Barton. Nolan can rot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's as big a reason why our team is so shit as anything else! Its shocking isn't it. The 'experts' always bang on about great teams being built on defences but really, look at any title winning side and you can guarentee a quality midfield especially the two in the middle. Also i bet Big Al can't believe that with Enrique injured he hasn't got a single out and out LB available as cover! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney 0 Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Shocking player. Doesn't take responsibilty on the ball, gets it and moves it 5 yards. He's a prick for getting that red card too. Guthrie/Butt/Barton are all better than him, and none of those are particularly good either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
