Bolton's Nolan happy to be back in middle

Bolton Wanderers captain Kevin Nolan admits he's relieved to be playing in the middle of midfield again.

He said: "The last couple of weeks I've managed to get myself back in the centre, and if I can keep myself there I'm determined to do really well and make sure the goals come.

"It's been tough playing on the right, especially when we were on a losing streak. It's not the best time to be playing out of position. You try your best, but sometimes you do get a bit lost out there.

"I give 110 per cent for Bolton every week. I tried my best in that position and always will. But now I hope that I can keep myself in the centre for the rest of the season.

"You make sure you're doing the best job for your team, and I think I did, even if people might not think so. Of course I've felt down at times. I still do, because we're second bottom.

"Nobody wants to be down there, certainly not me. I think we're still good enough to be in the top eight."
