I always pick up that Andy prefers Bogdan, whether its just after Lonergans nomination of player of the month after keeping us in all the games we played in that month or whether its after Bogdans FA cup run theres always a sense that youre waiting for a fumble and mistake which of course inevitably will happen.
There is also something you see in Bogdan that some dont. I think he is an excellent shot stopper, who doesnt communicate well enough with his back four, doesnt command his box, rarely leaves his line and is prone to a howler. See Andy as a solid keeper whose distribution is questionable at times. Less sensational but more solid.
Trotter also seems to get the benfit of the doubt from you, i feel for the lad because he was a quintessential Dougie signing at the time fans could take no more. Another central midfielder, from Millwall, with little attacking ability. When we needed anything but that. Under Lennon he wont settle for that role of sitting back, breaking down play, hoofing it up and waiting for the next attack. He needs players to do more and of all our midfielders i think Trotter could be the better suited so i'll reserve judgement but think the start of his bolton career has been a below par 5/10.
So if that sounds like having a pop at you Andy, just an observation. Were all guilty of these small biases I for one dont seem to see Feeney as any good at all but will let someone like Wilkinson off. Might be an age thing or like you said a lethargic persona.
