Training with Bolton as a free agent. Now wouldn't that be exciting if he had a bit left in the tank. We were privileged to enjoy his skills early in his career. I suspect the ravages of time may have put him beyond useful service but if only.....

I saw this report on the Bolton news website, and all the happy memories came flooding back of this lethal finisher. As you say Andyl. if just! Wouldn` t it be just incredible to see him in a Wanderers shirt again? I would imagine the ravages of time will have taken its toll......but who knows. Remember the solo goal against, I`m not sure was it Wimbeldon? Awesome!

Doesn't matter if the ravages of time have got to him or not he surely must be good enough to be better than anything we currently have and how much could the likes of Clayton and Cravies learn from him? Nobody would expect him to be the old Eider but class as we know is permanent and he has it in spades. If NL thinks he's fit enough and he doesn't want mega bucks I can definitely see it happening. Fingers crossed anyway.

He would suit that role that Clayton played on Friday night, but that's me thinking of him in his pomp.Maybe he's just attending or coaching courses. Interesting though. Anelka playing in the Indian Premier League too, never knew he could turn his hand to cricket. Lets tempt him back while were going down the nostalgic route.

Saw him playing in the Greek league few years back. He played only couple of months before going out with a serious knee injury. He was nowhere near the player he used to be, had lost his spark and quickness but still had some moments of brilliance!
Later he went on to play in Belgium and had a quite good half season...I don't see why not give him a try! Can't be worst than trotter in fitness and quickness and better striker than beckford!

Reports on Monday afternoon, emanating from Iceland, suggest Eidur Gudjohnsen has re-signed for Bolton on a deal which will run until the end of the season.
Gudjohnsen has spent the last three weeks on trial with Wanderers and has seemingly done enough to impress manager Neil Lennon, who looks set to make the 36-year-old his first signing since taking charge of the club in October.
Having left Bolton in 2000, following a successful two-year spell at the Reebok Stadium, Gudjohnsen has gone on to represent clubs such as Chelsea, Barcelona and Monaco during a glittering career - which has seen him pick up a number of major honours across Europe.
Gudjohnsen produced a Man of the Match performance in a behind-closed-doors friendly against Bury last week and is pencilled in to feature in the club's development squad fixture against Middlesbrough on Monday night.
Should he emerge unscathed from the game, he could be in contention to make his second Bolton debut when they travel to Reading on Saturday.

This is exciting. Socal's report seems to be true! Reading here I come. A club announcement may be imminent!

A great resigning if true. I just hope Wanderers fans don't expect him to be the player he was when he was last here, and that age will slow him down a wee bit. I would love to see Samaras come to the Bok.

A great resigning if true. I'd say the best resigning since Dougie walked out. I don't think anyone is expecting Eidur to come in and score a dozen goals and dribble round the opponents. I just think we're losing Chungy who has been instrumental in our recent results. I would say that we wouldn't have scored and taken half the points was it not for his new role. So we definitely need a number 10 and there doesn't seem anyone has that in this current squad. So yes thats why I think its a great signing because 36 or not we don't have anyone better. We have Lee for a few more weeks, which will give Eidur the chance to get a little more match fit, coming off the bench and getting back familiar with the game. More training time to get to know the players and come January I'm hoping he will be ready to step in the number 10 role.
