EPL 9/2/2008 - Bolton vs Portsmouth

After the protracted Benjani transfer saga, Portsmouth will look forward to putting it all behind them and concentrate on getting another three points in this live commentary and play by play English Premier League soccer match against Bolton, away at Bolton and in their best element. Portsmouth is a machine playing away from home as they have been getting good results generally despite stuttering at home due to a lack of goals at Fratton Park. Away from home, Portsmouth have been doing well and they will look to pint sized Jermaine Defoe again for the goals. Defoe is a player who will always do well at club level but smothered at international level due to a lack of desire. A skilful and talented player, Defoe is a good capture for Portsmouth and he will look to display that value again tonight in this live commentary and radio broadcast English Premier League game against Bolton, as Harry Redknapp attempts at another weave of his magic wand.

Bolton on the other hand continue to surprised many with Gary Megson at the helm and will look to continue a decent run of form in this live commentary and TV telecast game at their own home ground. Since Gary Megson reinstated some of Bolton's regular players under Sam Allardyce, the steely edge has returned and they are back to playing their best football - that of being aggressive and sometimes dirty, by taking opposing players out with bully tactics and pumping long balls continously in attempts to unsettle them. It might seem that Megson has done a good job and has great managerial skills, but in actual fact, he is just stealing from Allardyce's system and doing nothing different. Which is what Sammy Lee did wrong. If Megson continues with this and Bolton stays in the English Premier League, you might see the ginger haired mourinho a bit more often but he will get found out sooner or later.

Portsmouth plays the prettier football and they look favourites to snatch all three points in this live commentary and radio broadcast English Premier League match between Bolton and Portsmouth. However, Bolton have been playing with more confidence and like I said, if they continue with the same dirty tactics, they should be able to gain the upper hand against many opponents, not least a team like Portsmouth. So before you chock it up as another away win for Portsmouth, think again. It is likely that this live commentary and TV telecast soccer match between Bolton and Portsmouth in the English Premier League will end in a draw.
