You're hardly going to sign a striker and say he's utter tripe

Evatt also claims in that Bakayoko played a lot off the right for us? Did he? I must have been watching different games.

I believe tripe is a very popular dish in Lancashire

tried his best for us and scored a few important goals. On his day he was unplayable but unfortunately it was few and far between. Wish him well but definately not good enough for the championship

Tbf he has learnt a lot, still young and has dropped a level but to a decent club on the up again finally. I think it's a good move for him and I can see him do well. There is a player in there, I was happy to see him move on, but if someone can get him playing to his attributes and teach him how to jump and head the ball, he could hit 15-20 in L1.

I would have thought he needs someone like Joey Barton to bully the physicality out of him

Barton was sacked at Fleetwood and has a dismal record at Bristol Rovers. His managerial methods will not get the best out of players, reading his book it’s always someone else’s fault for his failings and misdemeanours

I remember watching his first interview when he signed, and just watched his Bolton video too. Seems like a nice guy who has learned all the right things to say but it's so monotone and devoid of passion. I think that carries over into his game. Has learned how to be a decent footballer but doesn't have the natural hunger or passion to regularly lift himself up on a match day to be a ruthless striker. Think he has just got a very passive, introverted personality which may always hold him back from fulfilling the sum of his physical attributes.

Hope he gets an extended run of games there and maybe a few early goals and the love of the fans will give him the confidence and desire to continue that.

EXCLUSIVE BY ADRIAN KAJUMBA: Sportsmail understands legal action is being considered and lawyers have been contacted after Barton accused the pair of negligence.

The day I manage CCFC is the day hell freezes over!

I hope he does well, in the same way I hope most players do well - who wants to see people fail?

Not sure I expect him to do well, mind you.

I’m not sure, 75 games in a season is a big ask of any player

I think he will do well at Bolton, he's going to be playing off another big striker, so I can see him getting on the end of a few knock downs, and at that level he will score a few.
If he can find his inner beast mode he could be another Clarke-Harris.

Maybe, however he played a part in our League 1 title win. For that I wish him the best

How many players do we have now that shows the ability to be squad members for this season?

Like I said on another thread, he'll go about scoring 6-8 games a season in the lower leagues most of his career but one year he'll go mad and hit 25 before returning to type.

Probably the exact same thing as here. Has all the physical characteristics and is probably a great trainer.

Unfortunately he just doesn’t transfer it to the match day and doesn’t have the mental grit to consistently be a top striker. Not convinced he’ll prove me wrong.

I agree I also wish him well I just don’t see a footballer in there.

Might work better in a partnership than as Lone Striker.
