Excellent work by Alan for the first goal but didnt have much to do otherwise.

That cross that probably landed in the old IMI car park in the second half made me laugh.

Probably his best game of the season last night. 6/10

And that's the problem.

I think i'd have rated Taylor higher.

A lot of effort but a very limited footballer.

I think your assessment is ridiculous.  You’ll never be able to see past your own bias regarding Hutton.

Both full backs looked okay last night, I thought. Crossing could be of better quality. They joined in, made themselves available, tidy short passing, didn't slow the game down.

Improving, but still work in progress. Much like the rest of the team.

Hutton and Taylor looked better, in that they at least looked reasonably competent and didn't give me heart failure every time they went near the ball.

Nyland on the other hand, is a joke of a player.

Both full backs looked ok vs Bolton. They are both at best decent back up players.

Hutton played a few shit balls but also some dangerous crosses and linked up really well around the box. He was involved in a lot of good moments last night with the odd comedy one to bring it back down to earth.  I think if an opposition player had played that game against us people would have been saying he was impressive

You're right TV, they look ok, it's only when we get real quality in those positions we will realise how much we have been held back in recent years.

You two should get a room if you haven't already.

We are getting to the stage where Smith's work on the training pitch will pay off but we will see those players who hold us back.  Sadly, as great an attitude as Alan has, he will hold us back, as will Taylor.  Both were ok last night but Taylor has a natural predaliction to go backwards instead of going for the throat and Alan lacks accuracy with his final ball.  We need upgrades.

I think he gets a lot of stick that e doesn't deserve. He's obviously not, say, Cafu(!), and he's no Mark Delaney either. But I think that for where we are, our priorities are in several areas of the pitch way before we get to right-back.

I personally think Bree should be given a go.
