We decided to crunch the numbers on Bolton Wanderers’ season so far and show who is leading the way key statistical areas.
Ian Evatt’s side has leapt from 19th to seventh position in a little under a month, boosted by some canny business in the January transfer window.
But how much have the likes of MJ Williams, Dapo Afolayan and Co affected Bolton’s style of play?
GOALS (ALL COMPS)
Easy one, this. Eoin Doyle leading the way on 12 and should soon become the first Bolton striker in 19 years to surpass the dozen. Antoni Sarcevic and Nathan Delfouneso will also fancy their chances of getting into double figures.
DOYLE – 12
DELFOUNESO – 7
SARCEVIC – 6
GNAHOUA - 3
MILLER – 3
MINUTES PLAYED (LEAGUE)
Ricardo Santos hasn’t missed a minute in the league for Wanderers and four others have had more than 33 hours on the pitch this season.
SANTOS – 2,820
DOYLE – 2,459
DELFOUNESO – 2,185
SARCEVIC – 2,133
BAPTISTE – 2,014
ASSISTS (LEAGUE)
Ali Crawford had four before signing on loan for Tranmere but Arthur Gnahoua has picked up the slack and now leads the way for Wanderers.
GNAHOUA – 5
DOYLE – 3
DELFOUNESO – 3
SARCEVIC – 3
BAPTISTE – 2
JONES – 2
ISGROVE – 2
PASS SUCCESS PERCENTAGE (LEAGUE)

COMLEY – 86.2%
LEE – 83.6%
TUTTE – 80.2%
WILLIAMS – 79.3%
THOMASON – 79.1%
TACKLES PER GAME (LEAGUE)
Players must have appeared at least five times to feature on the list. And new addition MJ Williams has wasted no time putting himself about in midfield.
WILLIAMS – 3.3
GREENIDGE – 2.4
SARCEVIC – 2.2
DELANEY – 2.2
THOMASON – 2.1
