Match Thread Vertu Trophy - Bolton Wanderers (A)

When does lots of players getting injured stop being bad luck and become something else?

 

And decent pace up front. On another day, their lad might have missed those two chances that were goals but they have good pace up front and look threatening with the ball when breaking through our half.

 

If we don’t have anyone able to distribute from the back 3 (eg Baldwin) our main outlet is completely nullified. Then without Sarcevic nouse, we look concerningly average.

 

I’m sorry but all on Alexander playing a strong team in a meaningless match. What a disastrous night.

 

Shouted from the roof tops about this for the last 5 seasons and all we ever get is the training and facilities are fine. They’re not, and our ability to pick players who have had bad injuries or injury prone is astounding.

 

That’s 3 centre backs missing for the busy holiday programme, Joe Wright, Pennington and Tilt. Also no doubt Richards out for another long spell as well.

 

Wonder if the WHG year 10s team has a revolving door of muscle injuries too?

 

The training facilities have nothing to do with the impact injuries that we get. Joe wright would still be hobbling off if we trained at Man City’s training ground.

 

Seem to be giving away so many daft free kicks from lazy pressing

 

Scrap the ridiculous Humphreys experiment it's doing nobody any good.

Alexander tries to be cute with this switching of players but when you consistently have to hook players after 45 mins it's only a matter of time before you make yourself look stupid and not the player

 

Power needs a rest, Alexander ain't dropping him though.

 

That’s a decent goal.

 

I think you have to look at the type of injuries rather than just grouping them all. Injuries like what Wright has picked up tonight are one of those things that you can't avoid, same with the 2 or 3 concussions that we've had,

We will also notice injuries more as they are at our club so you notice them but I doubt anyone on here could say how many injuries Bolton, Burton or Exeter have had in recent years so we don't really know how our injuries compare with others.

 

Like it or not that was a very good goal .

 

How easy can we make it for Bolton?

 

Passed round us like we were cones there. Pathetic

 

And on that note, it's Newcastle vs Spurs time.

 

I wouldn’t really have noticed . Times up for him?

 

Bolton reserves looking like Brazil

 

thats class. We dont have that at this moment . The Tommy Leigh experiment has run its course. We look very tired and predictable...
