I was just wondering what everyone thinks of Klasnic after his run of starts, I'm not here to slate him cos I love they guy, he's a top finisher, gets goals and has scored winners for us. But at the moment I'm beginning to question his overall contribution to the team as he doesn't show much ability on the ball unless he's in the box. I know he's scored in every game so far and what more could we ask for, would you be happy if he started every game or be used as a super-sub like last season?
Personally I'm happy for him that he's getting his chances and continued to start for us. I'm just wondering what everyone thinks of his overall game. Do you think he's too poor at times or is it just the type of service he gets?
Who loves Klasnic?
I do.
3 in 3.
Ivan Klasnic

I agree that an extra midfielder for a striker could solve our problems but I don't have the heart to drop either of em!

He is a proper striker, a Michael Owen type that all he does is score goals and he contributes virtually nothing else to the team.
3 goals in 3 games is good enough for me.
I reckon, if he stays fit, he will score 20 goals this season.

Why are you looking for trouble?
You shouldn't be on a forum if you start insulting people who dont agree with you.
You're either not a Bolton fan or you have ADHD!!

Reebok, why do you ask that question ? Is it because you think you should, to fit in with others ? Think for yourself.

15 goals in 15 starts for Bolton. 37 sub appearances.
He will create chances for himself, but he is the sort of player to be missing for 88 minutes but score, hes a poacher, but his link up play is good, hes a very classy player with good movement and vision.
But we need someone like Tuncay to be up top with him, Tuncay can do all the running and be our creative spark up top, he has the ability and guile to do so, he and klasnic would complement eachother perfectly.

If Klasnic wasn't at the club, we would all be crying out for a player like him. I believe Kevin Davies should be subbed more often now, or maybe start some from the bench. With the team we are building, we are shifting away from players who are needed purely for their aerial threat and to put themselves about. We need players who will create space and pick a pass. Davies just doesn't seem to be on the same wavelength half the time.
Klasnic & Tuncay upfront for me!

Davies and Klasnic are both too static to play together.
Same problem Wheater and Knight have, so they'll never play together, hopefully.
Davies does create space because usuallly two players keep tight to him to give him less to work with, but Klasnic isnt going to exploit that space as he doesnt have pace. N'Gog could exploit it, but then Who is going to score goals?
Petrov and Klasnic have been our best players this season, in three games they have 4 assists and 3 goals between them. They are the focus down the left hand side.
Tuncay in the hole behind Klasnic, doing the running, creating chances and scoring them himself. Perfect combination with Klasnic classy play and strong finishing. Davies can be used as an impact sub when we need a goal late on and he can disrupt there backline. OR if we have a lead, hold up play and switch to a 451. But Coyle knows his career is winding down, as do we, and most probably Davies.
