Marcos Alonso: Bolton certainly are a solid defensive model

After not exactly two years of being, well, waste at defense, the Trotters have finally tightened up. Under Owen Coyle, it absolutely was quite definitely an incident of one's adversary scoring three and Bolton attempting to score four but only winding up with one. Bolton Wanderers were synonymous with delivery goals. We've created numerous pieces on the situation but because Dougie Freedman turned Bolton's director, the security has clearly increased. It took some time to make the journey to the purpose that Bolton are in today (unbeaten in nine and having gained five on the reversal) and that was due primarily to the fact that Dougie had to get Bolton's fitness up following Owen Coyle's travel. In fact, within the last few 14 games (following 5-4 Peterborough loss), Bolton Wanderers have granted several goal on just two instances (loss away to Watford and get away at Barnsley). The Trotters have lost three of 14 games games because stretch but apart from the aforementioned 2-1 loss absent to Watford, both of these other losses were 1-0 shutouts for the opposition.

Talking to the state web site, Alonso mentioned Bolton's new power at the back: "It is very important that we keep carefully the momentum going and get yet another three items at Ipswich Town on Saturday. "We were really reliable defensively and that is things you need to be against a team which keeps hold of the ball. It is then your job to find the right time to strike and we did that. "We are working well together and working hard on our tactical play, we look strong and that is why we're keeping clean sheets and winning games. "It is obviously difficult when you play away from home in the Championship but a lot has been learned by us from the start of the season and we go Ipswich full of confidence. "We had three weeks in a row enjoying equally on a Saturday and Tuesday so it's great to really have a full week to prepare because of this weekend's game." His newfound willingness was also mentioned by him to possess photographs on goal: "I have already been trying to report for the last few games with a couple of long range shots and luckily against Brighton I discovered the back of the net.
