As Wazza Rooney off to a luxury stateside boot camp for conditioning it raises the question if Levy could get a group rate.
Alternatively, Spur players might want to give blogs and websites a go. It was difficult to find a single online piece that didn’t suggest they routinely taking their foot off the gas after a stellar performance and Bolton might well – at home and in good form – be up for doing ’em.
The game looked evenly balanced for a bit but that was a period of false remission. Turned out Bolton just needed a while to warm up.
Here’s some player ratings then.
Gomes As good as the back four in front of him. So shakey then. 4
Begbie Listless and hungover looking until he scored. Whodathunkit? 6
Gallas Got nothing right yesterday. Got much wrong. Bad signing. 3
Kaboul Back to being a trainee carthorse. 4
A&E Flashes of mediocrity unforgivably stupid penalty. 3
Sandro Off the pace is about as kind as I feel like being. 5
Palacios Hasn’t been the same since the funeral. 5
Huddlestone His fouls are becoming ‘anti football’ maybe he needs to be sold to Stoke. 5
Modders Contributed less and less as time went on. Depressing. 5
Krankie Rusty? Dusty? Not a fine performance. 5
Bentley Couple of good runs. Perhaps ought to have started. 6
Bale They double up’d on him, he still hit the post. His value sank to £49M. 7
3MP All the grace and usefulness of an ironing board collapsing. 4
Pav Came on and scored a goal that in any other game would have been historic. 7
Anyone interested in John Carew on the cheap?(contract expires end of season) He’s no Drogba but i can see redknapp getting excited by it…
Anyone to replace Crouch….and I MEAN ANYONE!!!
By the way, Boltons first goal was offside and was a result of a mistake by Sandro. Welcome to the premier league my boy.
it wasnt like boltons was ripping us to shreds.
They got a soft penalty. So essentially we gifted them goals.
Our two goals were sublime in the footballing scheme of things…
come on guys take a look its the coaching , which other team in prem do u c cant pass to their own players and who has players who dont seem to know what to do with the ball and hold their hands up to say who do i pass to,
whats our tactics ??? does n e 1 know ? the players the supporters? the coaching staff?
we look unorganised and lost in many games ,
that is down to the coaching staff, as for passion and agression its up to the stafff to instil that mentality to the players simples,
Bolton were pure awful how could it be that we were worse? unforgivable. How can you blame Arry he gives the squad members who I bet were moaning “WE NEVER GET A CHANCE” a chance and they f**ked it big time. Krankie was rotten to the core he never once went down the right as soon as Bentley came on we had width. Sandra was awful, Wilson god his first touch! Crouch pathetic awful shocking rubbish. They should all chip in and pay the poor sods who went
Why have we sent out so many youngsters on loan i would have prefered livermore to have played then sandro or palacios who its very sad to see play now. We also lack pace when lennon doesn’t play so why send out rose on loan can i just add seen articles in morning papers about a 20 million pound bid for young PLEASE NO we need a centre back, left back, defensive midfield player and about 3 forwards.
