Post-Match Thread and Ratings Bolton Wanderers 3-0 Southend United

Elvis is our most decisive player in possession and it is not even close.

The best example was when he read play, intercepted a wayward pass, drove forward and then picked out Egbri(?) with an excellent pass.

In recent weeks our best chances have all come from moves instigated by him and the opposition's chances have all come from moves down our left flank yet Elvis continues to attract bull**** criticism whilst those who haven't created as much and have leaked goals escape the same scrutiny.



I couldn't disagree more. He is the emperor's new clothing.

There is no substance whatsoever to him. He's not quick, he's not strong, he's not good in the air, he doesn't get behind defences, he misplays passes, he can't shield the ball, he's not a good finisher, he doesn't anticipate.

We've seen plenty of poor forwards over the years but even the likes of Michael Husbands (pace), Drewe Broughton (aerial ability) had something to their game. The only thing Goodship does, other than frustrate, is peel away into the inside left channel but he then doesn't do anything with it.
I am talking mainly about defensively he isn’t decisive and is often, too often, out of position. He is a full back he has to do better. Attacking wise yes he can be decisive at times but he isn’t consistent in his decision making. He is a professi9nal footballer and that is siomething he should be doing as a matter of course, he is young yes but as many have lauded he has played over 100 games now
 
Anyone else notice the lack of crosses from Kyp when he was forward?
As soon as he was replaced by Clifford the crosses started to come over.
Hopefully Clifford is now fit to start the next few vital games.
