Middlesbrough boss Tony Mowbray may report that his Boro side were the greater team against Bolton Wanderers. He could claim that the umpire did the job for Bolton. What Tony Mowbray doesn't realize is that save for a 15 minute cause at the conclusion of the fit once the Trotters were more than happy to absorb pressure, his staff fell quite short against Wanderers. It was not quite a Bolton win by any stretch of the imagination but it was a good win for the men in white. There were four Trotters that basically helped the cause and each is well in for the Lion of Vienna Suite's Man of the Match award. Darren Pratley was his usual enthusiastic self. The midfielder went at frenetic pace over the length of the match and proved an essential compliment to Medo in shoring up the center. Pratley has confirmed herself as a goal risk in the midfield and came close on several instances on Saturday, especially missing just broad from 25 yards out. Since Dougie Freedman's introduction at Bolton, Darren has generated himself as significantly of a link-up person between the defense and the forwards as his receiving runs have helped advance the ball into important areas. Frank Eagles won Bolton's opener with a mishit combination that looped over Boro goalkeeper Jason Steele and found the upper part at the far post. Along with that, it was his ball that sent Chung-Yong Lee in to the box and began the play that ultimately won Bolton the charge and the fit. Frank Eagles was important on both wings, cooking in numerous great crosses that Bolton men failed to report from and his corner delivery (which has often been lacking this season) developed threats that Middlesbrough often struggled to manage. Craig Davies did not score on Saturday but he certainly appeared as if he could. The match's first opportunity fell to him and his drive required Jason Steele right into a great diving end. Davies proved some for Boro's defense and it absolutely was clear which they struggled with his size and strength as he continually breezed past Jonathan Woodgate. His turns on the side of the box opened up opportunities for Bolton and the physicality that he provides could possibly be imperative to Bolton's success in the coming days, months, and weeks. Our man of the match nevertheless was Medo Kamara. The midfield enforcer once again demonstrated that he was a cut above the weight and he made sure that items in midfield were neat. Kieron Dyer and Josh McEachran made up the center of Boro's midfield and it had been Medo that kept them in check before portrayal McEachran inadequate for the majority of the match. Kamara was also yet again a goal danger, like he proved when he scored at Charlton and made a goal against Wolves. In the opening stages, straight subsequent Craig Davies' drive, a full-blooded volley from most of 30 yards required Jason Steele right into a spectacular save to tip the ball away from the top of corner and rejected Bolton's operator. Medo is a power in Bolton's midfield and seems a great one for years to come.
