It has been discussed elsewhere. Fact id there are other Prem teams after him and event e article acknowledges that Fulham are in prime position if Huddersfield don't go up.

His dad was on loan at Wanderers around the same time Coyle was here? Aren't they both Scottish? Maybe friends? Maybe some of this could be true and could influence his decision? Wishful thinking? I'm delusional? :)

Coyle is holding talks with Arsenal hoping to seal a loan move for Ryo Miyaichi also targeting a new cd and cm.

He actually says on BWFC website that we need two central defenders and a centre midfield player. We actually don't necesarily need Miyaichi unless we play Eagles as a striker. We have Petrov, Wylde, and Chung Young Lee. Have never felt that Eagles is good enough for the wing but thats what Coyle bought him for.

Also says on the website that Coyle needs to talk to Uncle Phil and Uncle Eddie about finance so I think talks with Miyaichi is wide of the mark unless Arsenal are prepared to fund his wages - assuming that Arsene Wenger wants to let him stay at Bolton.

OC, must certainly have been promised some funding, since it was saying that they were making a £3.5m bid for Jordan Rhodes.  Plus with 2 Central Defenders and a Central Midfielder, won't come cheap...

Also PG, says in The Bolton News, they will get someone better than NRC to replace his role..

IMO, that seems like funds are available...  How much...   :whoknows:

What's everyones thoughts on Owen Hargreaves? Isn't his grandad a Bolton supporter? My first thoughts are that he wouldn't drop a division and would certainly be a massive risk as he's injury prone. However, if we could get him fit and playing he would be brilliant for us. With a connection to the wanderers and his career going in the wrong direction possibly playing at a lower level might just be the boost he needs... well thats if he can stay fit.

Didn't realise you were a chief scout for our club frankie. I'd rather take a risk on a player like that than bring in a couple of seasoned championship players who could possibly take us back up. You don't want championship players on two year contracts if we do go up. We'll end up with a squad of championship players under contract in the prem.

Coyle has already held talks with Arsenal but a long way to go yet on a deal being done,

Yeah I read that in the BEN. But still puzzled by his choices.

Don't think Owen Coyle will be looking at Owen Hargreaves or Michael or Kieron Dyer or anybody of that age. I think the club are looking at very young players that they can bring in and hopefully sell at the right price. If Newcastle come in with an offer of £10 million for Mark Davies I bet they'd find it too tempting to turn down. So all OC's bluster about keeping our players is just window dressing.

I don't think we will sign too many before end of August anyway. However we're supposed to be in for Luke James from Hartlepool 19 year old midfielder.

On the button, Greeny. Except we'd be tempted by a lot less than £10m for any of our players.

I would go for Carlos Cuellar from Villa, they released him yesterday and the villa fans are gutted as hes done a good job for them.

Also bring some experience in organising the back 4.

Love the thought of Cuella playing for Bolton, but can't see it happening as so many lower tier prem clubs will be after him.


Players I'd sign:

Adrian Mariappa - IMO is one of the best defenders in the Championship.

WilFried Zaha - I know we've already had a bid turned down for him, but the pace this guy has is something Bolton are missing.

Ross McCormack - Versatile player main position as a Striker, But can play as a Winger.

Jordan Rhodes - Scottish International who was born in Oldham, only 22 so still developing. Had a phenomenal scoring record last season 44 Apps - 40 Goals! :shock:
This guy is probably gonna get snatched up by a big club just to rot on the bench. Would be great to see him playing for the whites though.

We've already had a 3.5 million bid tuned down for Zaha and we are negotiating for Miyachi. I think our days of getting Zaha are over as he didn't come the last time and I think there are a host of Prem clubs looking at both Zaha and Rhodes. McCormack is also interesting Prem clubs. Think we will have to wait till end of August before any of our business is done. Mariappa might join us but having seen his mate Sordell sit on the bench when he could have carried on at Watford, might just put him of Bolton, particu;lalry if Zat Knight re signs. If Knight goes we have a chance.

We can band names about all day but Coyle will have his targets. Other than those player released on a free, will we get in July. The rest will have to wait. We are desparate for two defenders before any strikers or any midfielders are considered. That and sorting the back room staff are where our priorities lie in my opinion. If we don't get defence right we can wave goodbye to the championship the wrong way.

I thought Cuellar would be a good shout but expect his wages and age would be too much for OC.

Can't see Jordan Rhodes going to anyone outside the Premiership, especially if Huddersfield are promoted.

Miyachi & Pernis, well possibly but do we need any more wingers and keepers? Surely we start with strengthening that defence.

As far Zaha I wouldn't pay 3.5 million drachma for him, never mind pounds sterling...

If Knight is to sign a new contract, at least he's showing commitment unlike NRC. Still hope he moves to Southampton, or Big Sam puts in a bid for him & jussi. Maybe a   trade for Carlton Cole

Sky Sports understands a number of Championship clubs are chasing Reading striker Simon Church.

Church, who is away on international duty with Wales for the weekend friendly with Mexico, is thought to be attracting the interest of the likes of Bolton, Leicester and Brighton.

The 23-year-old struggled to hold down a regular place in the Reading team last season and with the Royals expected to bolster their attacking options next season, Church could find himself pushed further down the pecking order.

Church, who made 19 starts in the Championship last season, netted seven goals last term to help Reading win promotion to the Premier League.

The highly-rated forward could be tempted to leave Reading this summer in search of regular first-team football and Bolton, Leicester and Brighton are all monitoring his situation at the Madejski Stadium.

The three clubs have all made striking reinforcements one of their top priorities in the transfer window as they look to mount promotion bids next season and Church figures highly on their wanted lists.

Nah, I can't swallow that one. It's not like clubs are fighting over him & he's choosing us.
Signing a new contract for humumgous amounts of money (by our personal standards) isn't showing commitment when he wasn't looking that committed on the field last season.

Yea I get what you mean. Thing is ever since he joined he's been terrible, so why has he even been at our club for so long? Can't understand why Coyle is even considering giving him a new contract, there has got to be better cheaper alternatives.  :whoknows:

I'm no fan of knight

And that's an understatement

But the championship is a far lower standard

He will do fine in that league

We need as many defenders as we can get!
