Embarrassed by Jordan Ayew throughout. Let that sink in for a bit.

To be fair to him most of the players are currently floundering.

Aly Cissokho may get a recall on the old pals act.

Now scored for both Villa and Everton, last season and this season.

Shambolic goalkeeping for his goal but I did enjoy him giving the keeper the eyes before slotting it in to the largely open net!

I reckon Bolton would have done better having a ‘first man back’ goalie.

For some reason, he was obsessed with Ollie. Led to 2 of our goals.

Either Watkins put the hex on him or there was shithousery during one of our early corners and he wanted to give him a smack.  He did make some good saves, to be fair to the fella.

I was impressed with Bolton in the first half, and I think they will do well this season.

Exactly what happened - the keeper set up to try to intercept the ball across to Watkins but got his angles completely wrong giving Digne the opportunity to slot him.

We weren't that clinical.  ;)

Digne in a similar position should have squared it to Ings - wide open on the penalty spot - instead took a terrible shot.

This player will be Gerrard's epitaph. Awful signing.

I don't get it, he's got a great football pedigree and clearly is a very good player but my god he's been a disaster for us. Those 3 crosses at the start of the 2nd half, all onto Zoumas head. Fucking hell.

I think he's a good player - but not in this narrow system. Needs a winger in front of him.

A position that wasn't a priority given our other needs. I keep thinking he must be good because he had played so many times for France but he hasn't been good for us at all and he wasn't doing well at Everton when we signed him.

I don’t think he’s awful. But he looks that way in how he is being asked to play. Matty Cash has been just as ineffective this season.
