Count on the Gunners to shoot Coyle down.

Posted 01-19-2010 at 03:16 PM by jamestaylor
New managers are supposed to bring their teams a boost. Sadly for Owen Coyle, the new man in charge at Bolton Wanderers, his side have come up against title challenging Arsenal in his first two league games. The Gunners travelled to the Reebok on Sunday and were able to come away with a 2-0 win as Cesc Fabregas proved that he is a game changer for Arsenal when fit. Unusually, the two clubs are set to face each other in the league again on Wednesday - the cold weather forced the postponement of Bolton's planned trip to the Emirates earlier this month.

This quirk of rearranged fixtures means Coyle has had little time to find his feet as Bolton manager and it's likely that he'll have been looking for good performances rather than points to start his career at the Reebok. He did get a decent performance last time out, but away to the gunners is a very different proposition. As this Betfair Football blog points out, Arsenal are in top form at the minute and I fancy them to bag a hatful tomorrow night.
