  1. If we do change our style of play , wouldn't we then not get the best out of K.Davies? We play to his strenght's and it brought us some vital goals last season . If we played a more tiki taka/easier on the eye game we would need more flair players , taking out players strenght's that suit our current style might not be good news in the long run. There was a move against Hibs , we're we did a nice little 1 touch passing combination [about 6 quick passes on the floor - pass and move] that looked better than anything Barca and Spain produce This season if can get M.Davies and Lee Chung Yong's passing ability to create more chances for Elmander , Muamba playing consistently like he did for England u21's and Taylor and Davies doing what they do best then we could be up for a great season . S.Davis looked a better passer against Hibs than i though he was . Our defence looks solid , so hopefully the midfield have more confidence in them , so they dont track back has much , leaving us with more players in positive areas of the field when we are attacking . We need more players closer to the frontmen so we can have more goal scoring chances [sometimes K.Davies plays as right winger and Elmander doesn't have players 10 yards close to help him] To change style would take a lot of time , different players , better players . There isn't the likes of okocha or Djorkaeff anymore , Our midfield is our main problem but it's not bad on paper , The thing is our style is that poor especially last season that only 1 or 2 better players and a slight change in style wont make any noticeable difference , Players play the way there ability lets them , you would have to change there mentality , there training ,there game . I think most fans problem with our style is the long ball stuff , the 10 men defending a corner and our 4-5-1 defend defend defend formation and questionable tactics . I can only think of Lee Chung Yong who is different to what we had last season , imo S.Davis , Robinson Ricketts are average so won't make much difference to the 1st team [ but decent cover] therfore how can Megson expect players to play a change of style when there football game is pretty much what Bolton's style is about . [ e.g K.Davies knockdowns from long balls] And what kinda style are we talking about ? More width , more compact , on the floor passing , 4-4-2 ?
  2. Yes i drove past it on my way to comet for my new HDtv.
  3. Latest news is he has to go to the Philipines to get his visa , then he should be coming to us to finalize the deal . http://www.theboltonnews.co.uk/sport/wande..._0_Hibernian_0/ He shouldn't have any problems with fitness and he's been playing for FC Seoul whilst it's been pre season over here , so say it's completed in the next couple of days, will Megson have enough trust in him to play or be on the subs bench v Sunderland , or will he have to settle 1st and work his way into the 1st team Imo Cahill signing a new contract is the best news so far this pre season , but Yong is the one im looking forward to seeing most ? From what ive seen on 'Football Asia' on sky and also on Youtube i think his passing ability and his pace is gonna provide us with some much needed creativity and make us a real threat. Here's hoping he doesn't turn out to be a Wilhelmsson or a Braaten . Edit: uncredited article removed.
  4. ?? People saying no are rather fishing or only go near the stadium. I don't think there's a Mcdonalds though
  5. Yes there is a nando's at the reebok
  6. Robinson for Samuel
  7. Lets just hope the team don't play like they did against Pompey ( and most of this season tbh ) Wigan 1 -1 Bolton
  8. How did Muamba miss that ?????? very poor effort
  9. We will lose by about 4 goals
  10. Im trying to leave a reply and they dont work , is anyone having these problems also ?
  11. He is useless . I actaully rate JOB more than him and that's saying summat

  13. We did this on the main BWFC website with Diouf and i think it was Gartside and it went really well , it's only a bit of fun also , so i hope you don't blame me for being childish . This is what you have to do , if you do take part Copy and paste the previous post and put your addition in bold If it works maybe we can do another one using someone different . 00:00 - Goes to bed 01:00 - 02:00 - 03:00 - 04:00 - 05:00 - 06:00 - 07:00 - Wakes up 08:00 - 09:00 - 10:00 - 11:00 - 12:00 - 13:00 - 14:00 - 15:00 - 16:00 - 17:00 - 18:00 - 19:00 - 20:00 - 21:00 - 22:00 - 23:00 -
  14. Also if we only have 5 points after 10 games , will Phil be thinking of sacking Megson , afterall it'll mean we've had a worse start consdering we got knocked out of Carling Cup also . Don't think we will though , as soon as we get Man Utd out of way with a loss , then we can bring back Elmander , Taylor and play Riga and things will be get a lot better i feel Ignore this one read underneath . sorry
  15. Riga didnt start against Stoke ? our best team will never contain JOB imo
  16. I try my best to be of good service
  17. ORE .. ORE . What mustaphe been thinking ? :p Should i go and get a taxi
  18. AURA That's the word , thanks Riga is getting me off my seat at moment when i see him have the ball , kinda like when Okocha has it aswell . No comparisons but i think he can be a very influential player for Bolton , if given games and the support he'll need .
  19. I honestly thought ore meant what i thought i did .. I guess im wrong I was trying to say he could have the same great feeling people had when they saw Jay Jay , a really good vibe etc Anyone know the rite word , id appreciate it a lot =) =P
  20. If Nolan and Muamba play , for me there is no need for JOB and McCann Megson played Diouf last season , so why not play Riga ? not many managers would swap an attacking player for a grafter or replace our striker Elamander with McCann , when we have attacking players in the squad .
  21. All week , all year :::: The guy was unique in every way , when he was on form especially is 1st season , i was still @ school and Jay Jay was the talk of the school even the town , he was the most entertaining player we have ever had imo , he;s the most watched Bolton player on Youtube and i don;t know if you remember but all the pundits kept saying ( like des Lynam on the premiership on itv ) Okocha should be playing for Real Madrid or Chelsea he's that good , Is goals against Aston Villa and West ham still give me goosebumps when i see them . Me and my mates on premierfives would spend ages trying to master is signature trick , when i watched him play i got exicted and he made me laugh he was that good , if he was around now and played a season like his 1st and was english he would be sold at end of season for like 80 million . Shame Big Sam didnt tell ys he wasnt gettign a new contract so we could give him a farewell he deserved after that Brum game , i thought when he came back from African Nations and got a new haircut ( afro ) he started picking up his form again . The Spurs away game will forever live in my memory as will the Carling Cup semi final . Djorkaeff was also an amazing player . Man how bad our midfield has fallen .
  22. If this is about who is the most gifted player ever for Bolton Then for me it is Jay Jay Okocha .
  23. Sorry your right , maybe i should of changed it , but didnt realize i choose the wrong word . Tell me one thing though , did you understand my post ?
  24. Maybe , Don't think Muamba had the best of games today , he started well , he ran past about 3 players but then had no support so it didn't lead to any good but then he looked a little nervy and didnt help our defenders out either , Steinsson and JLS kept leaving gaps and kept letting the Arsenal players run in behind them and at times we looked like we had 4 center halfs rather than a spread out back 4 and the space they allowed Arsenal was very poor . Sometimes i feel midfielders and attackers are hesitant to play with more freedom and variety 'cos they not confident in the back 4 to keep things nice and tight so they can go and express themselves , im not saying this is the case with Muamba today or JOB but hopefully our defence looks better when Cahill returns , I also think Sh,ittu is not as good as Meite and looks like 20 stone and isnt mobile enough , I would of played Hunt at right back and Steinsson in the center with AOB , but shi,ttu was not as bad as Steinsson in that 1st half . 2nd half was an improvement attack wise but Arsenal had just as many chances , and if you count Steinsson goal as lucky we still havent scored a goal from open play yet in 5 league games yet . Which is a worry . Take away the Fulham game we are creatign chances , i really hope once Megson finally realises Riga is what we want and is better than certain players and Elmander is back our fortunes turn around . Were 1 point better off from last season , but not in the carling cup so it's pretty much same in terms of results , the players just need to show the belief they showed in fighting relegation
