Vital Quotes:
Owen Coyle likes the FA Cup.
‘For me it is the best club competition in world football and in any competition you enter you want to do your best.`
So he`ll be fielding a full strength side then?
‘There will be a few changes, we do have a number of knocks I wouldn’t want to aggravate.`
No, he won`t.
Bolton Team News:
Gary Cahill is still out, so Owen Coyle has a choice of Sam Ricketts, Andy O`Brien and Danny Shittu to partner Zat Knight. Reassuring it ain`t.
Gavin McCann and Sean Davis are long term casualties and Ivan Klasnic will miss a couple more games.
Player to watch: Lee Chung-Yong
Due a good game after a few quiet outings.
Tottenham Team News:
Central defenders Michael Dawson and Ledley King are doubtful as is Luka Modric.
Player to watch: Aaron Lennon
Bolton`s motley collection of full backs are all a bit rubbish, so the man with the girliest running action in football may have a fun afternoon.
