Bolton is quite a good side under Coyle. I would go with the following team. Surprise, surprise, no Andy Carroll. I’m still not convinced that his style of play suits our pass and move setup. The reason why we were so successful under Kenny last season is due to our movement off the ball when attacking. Suarez and Kuyt can interchange with each other, supported by the midfielders. Somehow with Carroll in the team, our movement is not that smooth flowing. Kenny and his coaching team should work on blending Carroll into the team without compromising our style, not the other way round. Carroll’s finishing is good but his movement, positioning and game intelligence still need improvement. At the moment, we need another backup striker regardless whether N’gog goes or stays.
