Davies and Elmander?

Premier League Bolton Wanderers
comment on the article

Hello fellow whites,i dont know if this has been mentioned yet so apologies in advance if it has.
I was just thinking whether Elmander was going to play instead of Davies or together?
Because we all know Megson likes to play with a single striker upfront,we needed someone to play off Davies not replace him.
For me Andy Johnson would have been a good buy because he would be a great upfront pairing with Davies.

i'm hoping they play together, davies flicking the ball on and elmander running onto it through on goal. it sounds so easy doesn't it.

it's so easy it's almost megson-proof, even he can ruin that winning partnership by having 2 keepers on the bench winkeye

If diouf goes then elmander should be a straight replacement for diouf on the wing, but if diouf stays then play 4-2-3-1 with elmander right upfront and davies CF/AM

we're not having elmander on the wing, just look at the euros. play davies right wing, elmander in the middle, taylor left (unless we buy a replacement) and diouf in the central midfield where he can create

I think they can play together, Elmander in the centre, with Davies on the right, Taylor on the left. Diouf wants to go, no point trying to convince him to stay.
Elmander looks like the ideal striker for us, strong & hard working, reckon he'll settle in well.

I couldnt careless where davies, elmander or diouf play. As long as goals come i aynt bothered! But i agree with a 4-4-1-1 formation, with davies on the right, taylor on the left, diouf behind elmander. With muamba n nolan in the middle. Steinson, cahill, andy ob, garder back four.

However, who do we play in goals, the bolton veteran jaaskelainnen, or the guy who in my opinion, kept us up???
