Bolton (a) replay match thread

[Robbie-9-Fowler]

Not sure why Lallana is being singled out having been involved in everything we've done that's looked dangerous. Markovic has done absolutely nothing, is he flavour of the month?

He's playing wingback. He's done okay.

Lallana is expected to do more in the final 3rd and he's looking a bit off the pace, taking too many touches, unnecessary flicks. He was great about a month ago but he's going through a rough patch at the moment for me.

If the "Defenders Union" is mentioned one more time I'm switching off.

Someone should tell Lineker his **** goatee makes his face look like an upside down piece of Toblerone...

Think the back 4 have been good but the middle of Allen & Gerrard doesn't look right.

Too intricate up top but good to see us working the positions

I think ideally it should only be 2 of the 3 Lallana/Sterling/Coutinho with someone like Sturridge or Ibe with them. A little too much of the same.

[Paddy]

I reckon even Gary Neville is watching this and thinking how much of a useless prick his brother is.

[RichC]

I think Lallana will be making way when Sturridge is fit enough to start.

He's another of our players that is all arsenal at times, fancy flicks and trys to walk it in. The lad has ability for sure, great technique but there are times you put your foot through it and get a shot in. You bring the skills out when you are coasting. Just wish we could get sharper around the box.

Markovic is staying wide but not getting much of the ball.

[Helios Creed]

Can we please stop shooting slightly to the left or right of the keeper and instead look where the post is and put it just inside? It worked for Robbie and Kenny - we've been shooting straight at he keeper for feckin years. Stop playing it safe and put it in the part of the goal where the keeper isn't.

If you compare the drive and attacking intent of Moreno and markovic it's night and day. He's been poor so far imo. Hopefully he gets a rocket at half time and ups his game.

Someone seriously can't play those bagpipes.

[Redspin]

I had to get up at 2.45 am to watch this game. Apart from Sterling's effort against the post we've looked toothless. It's a sad fact that we look much worse when Gerrard plays these days. He's completely shot. Thank God he's walking the plank at the end of the season

Heskey must be wondering why he's wearing a suit sitting on his arse, rather than a Bolton kit...

[SB]

Here we go. Let's smash em 2nd half.

[BobTheCharmer]

Nice one adam
