Bolton Wanderers player ratings vs Atherton Collieries - ex-Wolves striker & Adam Senior good

Starting team

Luke Hutchinson - 6

A few nervous moments early in the first half for young goalkeeper. Replaced at half-time.

Lynford Sackey - 7

Former Reading man lined up as right wing-back and got forward more as the first half went on.

Lamine Toure - 6.5

Lined up in the middle of the back three and was not afraid to spray passes about to each channel. The odd moment where his opponents got the better of him

Adam Senior - 7.5

Academy product captained the side and was shifted to the right hand side of the back three. Played well throughout and made vital goalline clearance.

Noah Halford - 6.5

Played on the left of the back three. Did a solid job and helped support attacks where he could.

Max Conway - 7

Got forward where possible on the left flank and grew into the encounter. His first team experiences shone through.

Andrew Tutte - 7

Player-coach of the new B team added some steel and experience in the middle of the park. A solid evening from former first team player before being taken of.

Nelson Khumbeni - 6

Former Norwich City midfielder got robbed of possession a few times early on but a solid showing overall. Taken off at half-time.

Connor Stanley - 7

Diminutive ex-Manchester United man grew into the encounter and saw free kick go just wide in the second half.

Conor Carty - 8

Recruited from Wolves, the forward impressed a lot in the first half, having a goal disallowed and seeing a free-kick tipped just wide.

Gez Sithole - 7

Joined from Gillingham following his release from Preistfield. Some nice link-up play at times, but replaced at the break.

Substitutes:

Arran Pettifer - 7

Adapted well to the encounter after being brought on as second half substitute.

Ellis Litherland - 5.5

Sliced clearance nearly ended up in the back of his own net and could not do much about the goal which proved the difference.

Matty Grivosti - 5.5

Went up front after coming on. Worked hard but did not make huge impact.

Finlay Lockett - 6

Striker went upfront after coming on part-way through second half.

Matthew Tweedley - 6

Came on and went into central midfield and got about the park well.

Danny Jones - 5

Came on as second half neared its conclusion.

Abdul Kamara - 5

Went into the back three after coming on late in the encounter.
