Manager excited by Moritz ability

Dougie Freedman says the Bolton fans are yet to see the best of Brazilian playmaker Andre Moritz.

In recent weeks the 27-year-old opened his account for the club and has also displayed some nifty footwork, most notable an impressive rabona pass during the recent win at Watford.

And Freedman, who also signed Moritz during his spell in charge at Crystal Palace, believes the Brazilian has the potential to soon become a firm fan favourite.

“We’re starting to see glimpses of Andre Moritz’s ability,” Freedman said after the Watford game. “He’s a very good player and we know that.

“I view him as my little present to the Bolton fans. He really is something special and a joy to watch.

“I want to bring his kind of performances and entertainment to the Bolton fans. I have a responsibility to the club.

“Andre himself has been a little frustrated, as have I, because he’s missed some game time due to not being well or fit.

“When people like Andre hit top form, it’s a certainty that people like Jermaine Beckford will get even more chances.”

So excited that he hasn't picked him to start yet.

Why would he start a player that's not fit?

More to the point why would you want him to play a player you yourself described as overweight and shit?

But Dougie thinks he's brilliant! And the "not match fit" bollocks is just that. Bollocks.

He's a stop gap until Davies returns. He's nowhere near as good

Has Mavies ever made a Rabona pass?

I'm willing to bet Davies returns before Moritz makes a start.

Moritz will probably start against Boro ( providing he is match fit )

Lots more to come from both players, i think Mark Davies as equally as much to prove, he as undoubted ability but seldom shows it, used to frustrate me to death in the Prem. Over hyped to some degree but at this level should be a superstar. the latest injury is a worry long term can he get back to were he was when the injury occurred.

As for Moritz i think the same thing, when he signed i read the Palace fans views he was considered to be a very influential player, so he must have ability, so we should be excited to have two players of such ability to be added to the squad, or we can just write him off call him a fat lazy bastard and see if that helps.

That tickled me.
