tribalfooball.com - July 28, 2007  Portsmouth boss Harry Redknapp is confident David Nugent will get goals in the Premiership. "David's going to be all right, he needs time," Redknapp said. "It was a tough game (against Liverpool), he was playing against two very good central defenders. "It takes time for players to bed in, John Utaka needs it as well. "It's a big step up in class to what they've played before for one or two of them and hopefully they'll adjust very quickly." | ||

"I do think they will be contenders this year," he said. "They're looking very strong. The backbone of the team is still Carragher and Gerrard, two homegrown players, but they've added a lot of quality again and will be a lot closer to Manchester United and Chelsea. "Tottenham are a team that could push into the top four this year as well if anyone's going to. They've got that bigger squad and have spent a lot of money over the last couple of years so they'll be very strong. "West Ham, Newcastle, Aston Villa, they'll all improve, but I think everyone will have a go this year. "We'll try to improve on what we did last season. We finished ninth and missed out on Europe on the last day of the season, but I think with this squad the aim is to get a European place this year and I think it's possible. He added: "I'm quite happy with the squad. "Unlike other years where we've been desperate to get players in just to have half a chance, we're strong this year. If I can add a bit extra, I will, but I've got to find the right player." |

I don't think Ronaldo will provide as much as he did, Rooney is already injured for 8 weeks maybe? Tevez isn't fit and Saha is always injured anyway. They will have problems there. |

Overview Bolton have established themselves as a respected Premier League club since rejoining the top flight in 2001. The Trotters made their Premier League bow in 1995 but were relegated after just one season when they finished bottom. They returned to football's elite a year later after winning the Division One title, but went down again - this time on goal difference. Sam Allardyce guided Bolton back up in 2001 and the club has gone from strength to strength. Bolton qualified for the Uefa Cup for the first time in their history in 2005 after finishing sixth. After an eighth-place finish the year after, they came seventh last season to make the Uefa Cup again. They were one of 12 founder members of the Football League which was formed in 1888. Club Heritage The club was founded as Christ Church FC in 1874, but changed its name to Bolton Wanderers three years later. Bolton finished FA Cup runners-up in 1894 and were losing finalists again 10 years later, before making it third time lucky with victory over West Ham in the 1923 final. More FA Cup success arrived in 1926 when they beat Manchester City and again in 1929 with a triumph over Portsmouth. There was another FA Cup Final appearance in 1953, but Bolton suffered a 4-3 defeat at the hands of a Stanley Matthews-inspired Blackpool. Five years later, they made up for the disappointment by winning the FA Cup for the fourth time with victory over Manchester United. Bolton had a 29-year spell from 1935 in the top flight and eventually slipped into the league's lowest tier in 1987. They eventually clawed their way back to the Premiership in 1995. And as a Division One team, made an heroic run to the League Cup Final but lost out to Liverpool. They suffered the same fate again - losing to Middlesbrough in the 2004 League Cup Final - although a club-best finish of eighth in the Barclays Premierhip softened the blow.

The 29-year-old, who signs for an undisclosed fee, has put pen to paper on a two-year-deal at the Reebok Stadium, with an option of a further year. O'Brien becomes Lee's 12th summer capture and goes straight into the squad for Wednesday's visit to Fulham. O'Brien had previously played for Bradford City and Newcastle United, before joining Portsmouth in 2005. Lee told the club's official website: "Andy is a great, astute acquisition for this football club. His versatility across the backline will give us greater strength in depth and options in a critical area." hard-working lad Republic of Ireland international O'Brien had fallen out of favour with Harry Redknapp at Portsmouth, and has moved on in search of regular first-team football. "He's a hard-working lad and I'm sure he'll do a good job for Bolton," said Redknapp. "Andy couldn't get back into the team when I bought other people in - and Linvoy Primus was playing out of his skin last season."

The Trotters got their Barclays Premier League season off to a bad start with a 3-1 home defeat to Newcastle United on Saturday. Lee has signed 12 new players, including most recently Andy O'Brien from Portsmouth, and believes it will take time for them to adapt. "We have made a lot of changes and most of the players have had five to six weeks to work together," he said. "But it may take time to get things the way I want and I hope people are patient. That is not to excuse the performance against Newcastle as we just did not turn up in the first half." have to cope Bolton travel to Fulham on Wednesday looking to put the Newcastle defeat behind them. Lee added: "I am now aiming for a response at Fulham. They will be looking to get at us as it is their first home game but we have to cope with that." Lee replaced former manager Sam Allardyce at the end of last season and is still looking for his first league win, having lost two matches and drawn one. |
