Bolton: More to come from Riga

Bolton manager Gary Megson has urged patience from Trotters fans waiting to see the best of summer signing Riga Mustapha http://www.ghanasoccernet.com/football/mustapha-riga.html .

Megson reckons Riga has got the potential to become a Reebok Stadium hero, but he is aware that it will take the Dutchman time to fully acclimatise to life in the Premier League.

 

Megson told the club's official website: "He's doing well in terms of what he knows but there are other things that he has got to add to his game because it's entirely different football here than it is on the continent.

 

"Against West Brom he did some good things on the ball and he has got some talent and he will get goals, but it's a different game on the continent because it's a lot slower and when you attack as a team, the opposition give you a little bit more time to get back.

 

"In England it's a lot faster than that and as soon as you lose the ball you have to get yourself back into position and everyone in the team has got to be aware of that.

 

"The things that we knew he was good at he's carried on doing, he's just got to add to his game and get used to the football over here."
