We really need to move the ball faster as Bolton are only defending and they crowded the midfield totally. They are dropping very deep and asking for trouble but we can't gve thjem any with this movement!

 

KK ned to take Shola off right away! Such a waste of space there

Got to love how often Zog loses the ball by dribbling into players. People gave Nicky Butt stick for losing the ball, but Zog must do it just as often.

 

Hes surrounded by white shirts every time he gets the ball.......they know most of our creativity going to come through him and they are stopping it quite successfully at the moment

True their midfield is loaded.  They look like they are playing for a draw, now where did we see that before?

shola has been terrible if viduka was there we would be up 2-0 at the least.

 

Get away. I'm not Shola's biggest fan, but this statement is just wrong.

It doesnt help that Bolton literally have 9/10 man behind the ball at all time. We arent really putting any pressureon them though, Roz looks quitegood in midfiled, ,Zog doesnt have the space he needs in the centre, maybe more effective out wide after all.

 

When you give the other team the time to get 9 men behind the ball then you can't complain when they do.

 

Our passing is so pedestrian and our running so uninspired and slow that I imagine Megson can't believe his luck. The poor lads are still traumatised by seeing so many long bombs fly over their heads over the past 8 months.

 

They havent given us any space to exploit in the first place though, agree with the lackof imaginative and placid runninh and movement, we dont have any guile.

Very little (not sure if there has been anything for that matter) created in the first half.

If we score it would open it up substantially. They're defending in depth, and coping quite easily.

Boton have 9 defenders on, at least they will not score if they keep playing the way they are.

 

What is the best way to break through?  Long cross field passes?

Excellent bit of play, Zog done very well.  Where were the forward though ball played across the face of goal with no-one there, Shearer would have buried that.
