He's played all but 12 minutes for Bolton this season in the premier league and has the most tackles in the league.
 
Bolton have played well this season. They have some good footballers in their side.

Not to mention an England international center forward leading the line!

Easily on for a top 10 finish, possibly top 8.

Yes.

Better than Coleman.

Ditto. He might not be as speedy as Seamus, but he has more talent on the ball with dribbling and control, and is more creative in passing. This is partially because he's been groomed as a RM/CM, whereas Seamus is learning - aka who knows what Seamus can become, but Holden is better right now as it's his natural spot. He had a very decent game against Poland in a friendly recently (not so decent against Colombia). He also was MOTM in Bolton's last game. They just signed him to a multi-year deal. He's their permanent starter on the right.
 
wheres all this better than coleman stuff coming from the lads just getting into the team for fks sake, every game his runs are ripping defences to bits give him a chance to develope and any notlob player wont be fit to lace his boots

Now maybe, but I think Coleman has more potential

Like I said, I've never really paid much attention to the lad. Next time I watch a Bolton game, I'll keep an eye out for him. If he's that talented, I'm suprised I haven't heard his name mentioned more often though.

For me Holden doesn't blow you away when you watch him, however he is very diciplined and makes few mistakes.. Also wears his heart on his sleeve.

Impressive fact for me, Holden has always been known more as an attacking player...

I dont think many people are denying that Coleman will be a super star (I know i'm not) if he keeps getting runs and learning I agree most players wont be fit to lace his boots.

I thought he was operating more in the center of the park?

That said, I agree that Coleman could become something special.

Sorry TXB, you're right - I wrote CM upfront, and then had a typo at the end. Right for USMNT, Center for Bolton. Regardless, a creative midfielder whereas Coleman is *still learning*. Learning awfully fast too.

Don't take this personal mate but he's good enough for Everton so that makes him good enough for Bolton.

My guess is that you haven't seen him play very much if at all. I on the other hand have seen him in over 100 matches. He is most decidedly NOT average.

And until DeJong broke his leg with a studs up challenge, he was the USA's best player against Holland in a pre-World Cup friendly match.

Damn straight. The fact that Bolton got him for almost nothing was ridiculous. Already a USA international (its not that easy to get into the USMNT anymore) and young. Plus because our players aren't burned out at 24 they have long careers and almost always get better with age. If they could hold on to both to him and Coyle they are going to be pretty solid for a long time.
 

My Nephew told me this lad was a Player , Pre-Bolton game .

I Pooh-Pohh'ed it , 'cause I'M '5-0-My God !!!

Thing was though , HE WAS RIGHT AN' I WAS WRONG - 'Zizou , lid ,..

Made the goal that night , scored the winner the following Saturday , then , last Sat' they are pegged back AND are down to 10 men , IN INJURY TIME . Yet , said Uncle Sam Lid , STILL puts it in , gets onto to a Hmmmm ball and CRASHES into Blackburn net !!!

SIGN HIM ON !!!

I AM THE ORACLE ; SO FUKN LISTEN ; SIGN THIS LAD ON !!!

Stand on Ya' Uncle L5CABizzzzzzlllllle .
 
Gotta say I didn't think he'd be up to much and I had seen him play quite often, I just didn't think he'd cut it in this league,

but he's proved me wrong big time, looked really good so far. I still think we have many midfielders better than him but I'd definetly take him here.
