Kevin Davies

I'll spend the next seven days praying the impact he made today and on Tuesday night hasn't earned him a start against Fulham.

It's starting to remind me too much of the games leading up to Wigan at home in February.

Coyle - just resist!

He did have a big impact, and actually so did Eagles they both played very well in limited minutes.

And when they both came on i was thoroughly pissed off... shows what i know.

he will resist IMO.

Amen.

Kevin Davies must start against Fulham. Not because he's great or because two goals in two games is his greatest achievement in football, but because the alternatives are worse.

Face it, Ngog is the second worst player ever to pull on the white shirt after Mark Davies. He won't score again this season. He can't even put away the simple chances, nevermind anything slightly difficult.

lol yeah mark davies and Ngog are worse than Blessing Kaku, Mario Jardel and Mikel Alonso.

Act is tiresome.

You don't have to take everything so literally HN, it's just my way of stressing how poor they are.

I get annoyed because I actually agree with you somewhat about Mark Davies having talent, but for some reason we hardly ever see it. Frustrating. As for Ngog, that £4m could have been spent on a decent defender or midfielder.

Mark Davies used his cunning and guile to get us a sneaky penalty. SuperKev is far better coming on as a sub. He's a better impact player than a ninety minute slogger. Ngog hasn't scored many goals but he works hard and I think it's only a matter of time before he gets among the goals.

but it's nonsense, taken literally or any other way.

They're both good players, Ngog works his nuts off with absolutely NO service or any true quarterback style midfielder (a la Campo)

every ball to him is too his head, which is definitely not his natural game.

I thought Ngog won a fair few balls today but sadly Klasnic was nowhere near him when it mattered.

As much I have stook up for Klasnic and slated Davies this season, Klasnic was fucking hopeless but Davies was immense when he came on and had an instant impact.

I still think we are missing a trick by not playing Sordell with Ngog, with Ngogs wortkrate and Sordells pace I think they could work very well together.

I love you as a WUM but this post comes dangerously close to your troll alter ego Bolton Hater.

Let's not lose sight of the fact that Kevin Davies and Eagles had an impact against Wolves who are bottom of the league. I doubt they would have the same impact against any other team !

Er, I don't even know what that means. Are you suggesting I am Bolton Hater? You sound like Hipster. I'm sure the mods will confirm I only have one username.

As for Kevin Davies, how is it being a WUM to suggest the player that came on as sub and changed the game gets a starting place next week? You have some strange ideas, are you seeking help?

The last time he started was against Wigan which you quite correctly described as one of the worst games ever with "11 spineless fannys putting in minimum effort". He has had a generally poor season. Why are you so confident that things would be different next week?

You have already admitted that you don't believe Mavies and Ngog are the two worst players to ever play for us. What's the difference between exaggeration and wind up?

Also Amen.

It is working out as an impact sub when the opposition are feeling tired or their heads are down. To think it will translate to a successful 90 mins is silly.

Kevin Davies has scored two goals in two games. Ngog has scored two goals in about 6 months. To stay up we will need to score. Ngog is absolute bobbins and should be dropped. From the top level of a multi-storey car park.

I'm not saying Kevin Davies is brilliant, but you have to pick the players in form. If not Davies then give the £3m benchwarmer Sordell a chance. We will get relegated if Coyle keeps backing Ngog.

We've won our last 3 games scoring 7 goals in the process.

I wouldn't exactly say we were struggling to score.

For every argument there is a counter argument. Natasha v Hipster. The Ying v Yang of the football forum.

We could have scored 10 without Ngog. You should always be looking to improve your team, even if you are winning.

lol just face it nat, you're just looking for something to moan about.

if we win 3-0 you want it to be 4-0.

I agree about improving the team but in a relegation scrap with limited games, chopping and changing a winning team is just silly IMO.

and guess what if he did change the team and we lost, you'd be the first on here whining that he did.

We have won the games despite Ngog, not because of him. We paid £4m for this mug to hit the bar when it was easier to score. I'm all for giving players a chance, but I bet Sordell would have 8 goals if he'd been given the game time that Ngog has.
