Given more playing talent he wouldn't necessarily play like that I think
Title: Allardyce Post by: oxford_fan on Friday, July 14, 2006, 00:49:26 definitely si, he can only work with what he's got and considering bolton's limited budget they play some decent stuff. it wasn't too long ago they were a div1 side.
£400k for hamann too! http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/b/bolton_wanderers/5177222.stm Title: Allardyce Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Friday, July 14, 2006, 19:57:57 Allardyce is a top manager, to do as well as he's done consistently at a club as small as Bolton is very impressive. I don't even think the football they play is particularly unattractive compared to most premiership sides, they're very physical but it works well for them. Shame he's not the new England manager.
