Bolton Wanderers player ratings vs Plymouth Argyle - Dion Charles & Liverpool loanee Conor Bradley good

James Trafford - 6

Made good stop to deny Danny Mayor in the first half and nearly got to stopping Ennis for opening goal but perhaps didn't have to come out for it and maybe could have stopped Hardie goal.

Gethin Jones - 7

Returned to the starting XI on the right of the back three. Had solid game and got forward well to support attacks.

Ricardo Santos - 6.5

Captain had been doing well and putting in interceptions but outsmarted by Niall Ennis for opener with individual error in key moment. Looked okay for th most part after.

George Johnston - 6

Defender had been largely solid but perhaps could have cut out ball forward which led to Niall Ennis putting hosts in front. Also probably could have got tighter to Ryan Hardie for second goal.

Conor Bradley - 7.5

Saw early chance go wide and caused problems down the right flank with his energy. One of the main creative threats for Bolton on the afternoon, despite second half booking.

Kieran Lee - 7

Remained in the team in a slightly advanced central midfield pair. Had looked bright on the ball but should have put Wanderers ahead in first half. Did more defensive work in encounter.

Aaron Morley - 6.5

Operated in front of the back three and sprayed passes about, but his usual touch and ability on the ball was not as evident at Home Park as it has been in previous games.

Kyle Dempsey - 7

Energetic in the middle of the park, making important interceptions to stop Argyle and tried to contribute to attacks.

Jack Iredale - 6.5

Came into the team in the left wing-back slot. Saw low effort go just wide before the break and got forward well.

Elias Kachunga - 6

Handed start upfront and showed energy in final third but didn't make emich impact. Taken off after 65 minutes.

Dion Charles - 7

Bright and lively from the start as he caused Argyle problems from the start with his tenacity. Tried to create and make things happen.

Substitutes:

Amadou Bakayoko - 5.5

Had glorious chance after coming on which Cooper saved from close range before hitting post.

Kieran Sadlier - 6.5

Went to left wing-back to replace Iredale. Added some extra attacking impetus down that flank.

Dapo Afolayan - 6

Added some freshness and creativity after coming on.
