Team Watch: Bolton

The Reebok stadium will be looking for another progressive season with Big Sam at the helm.
With injuries to utility-men Pedersen and Gardner, Sam Allardyce’s team for the first game of the season seems to pick itself.
Allardyce will be expected to play his tried and tested 4-5-1 formation, with either Kevin Davies or Jared Borgetti up front as the lone striker.

YTM’s predicted line-up for Bolton vs Spurs 19th August:

GK: Jaaskelainen

DL: Fortune (Midfielder on YTM)
DC: Meite
DC: Ben Haim
DR: Hunt

ML: Vaz Te
MC: Nolan
MC: Speed
MC: Faye
MR: Giannokopoulos

SC: Davies/Borgetti

Injuries:
Gardner: Cruciate Ligament (out till October)
Pedersen: Receiving exploratory surgery on an Achilles injury

Any thoughts on Bolton’s chances this season?
How can Big Sam solve his left-back problem?
