It looks very likely that our best two players Gary Cahill and Johan Elmander will be leaving in the summer. Probably unless we get a European spot. But I have noticed on various fans forums and even at the matches the fans different opinions of both players. Elmander seems to be getting a slating, while he has done nothing wrong but actually see out his contract, shock horror, (which is unsual in footballers these days). Is it his fault that Bolton didn`t offer him a longer contract? So as Elmander could be leaving Bolton for a free he is the one getting it from the fans when things don`t go well seemingly forgetting how many goals he has scored for Bolton this season. Maybe if Elmander thought and could hear the fans were actually behind him he might stay, as no one wants to be at a club where they feel they are not wanted. Just a thought fellow Bolton fans.
Whereas Gary Cahill would not be committing to his contract with Bolton and his loyalty to Bolton if he left in the summer. And it`s not as if he has come out and denied the rumour talks and said for definate he will be loyal to Bolton and stay. So what is the difference, ok the odd ?20m, but that should not be the point. English players are very overpriced (Andy Carroll for example). So why isn`t Gary Cahill getting the same treatment, afterall he would be leaving for more money just like Elmander but not seeing out his contract.
