WANDERERS (3-4-1-2).
JAMES TRAFFORD…8.
Showed just how good his concentration levels are by pulling off two outstanding saves, one in either half. That clean sheet record just keeps ticking on.
EOIN TOAL…8.
Surely worth consideration for the upcoming Northern Ireland squad? Improving week on week and took his goal so well.
RICARDO SANTOS…8.
Goal machine. Saturday’s double at Peterborough has clearly inspired him. Defensively, he put in a great shift too.
LUKE MBETE…8.
Took a bump as he scored his first goal in professional football but kept on ticking. Looks eager to push on and get involved.
GETHIN JONES…8.
Has slotted back in as a wing-back with great success in Conor Bradley’s absence. You would expect him to return to centre half – but what an asset. Good finish too.
KYLE DEMPSEY…8.5.
Really aggressive in the middle of the park, winning everything for the first hour of the game. In a rich vein of form.
AARON MORLEY…8.
Read the midfield superbly and picked out a few passes that drew applause from the Wanderers support. Revelling in this deeper lying role.
DECLAN JOHN…8.
Back to the sort of form he was showing at the end of last season. Two excellent corners created goals and a free kick came within inches of another.
SHOLA SHORETIRE…9.
A proper box of tricks. You couldn’t help but enjoy watching him face up defenders and leave them guessing which way he was going to go.
VICTOR ADEBOYEJO…7.5.
So close to a first goal for Bolton but has bought instantly into the aggressive pressing that has made Bolton so difficult to play against.
DION CHARLES…7.5.
Like Adeboyejo, denied by a point blank save by Cummings, but snapped at defenders the whole night through.
