And it’s another away defeat for Bolton, this time losing to Manchester City despite a first half lead. City scored in the first ten minutes, but Bolton went in for half time a goal to the good after Diouf and Nolan’s shots in the final minutes of the first half. But after the break Michalik deflected Hamann’s shot in for an own goal before Etuhu finished the game off in the 90th minute.
We lost because we didn’t defend properly at important times.
We’ve beat ourselves. They haven’t had to work hard enough for their goals. We can’t get anywhere doing that.
We’ve let in eight goals in our last two away games. That’s an absolute nonsense at the level we are at and if we don’t put it right we will go down.
