Bolton Wanderers secured all three points at The Valley last night, but the victory did come at some cost.

Whilst Sam Dalby took his goal well and the likes of Chris Forino, Luca Stephenson and Akin Famewo, three that have spent time out of the team, all stood up well in the defensive areas, Steven Schumacher did lose two players.

Josh Sheehan limped off after blocking an indirect free-kick that was given away by Jack Bonham and Atsuke Ito looked to pull up late on, having to hobble off with assistance as Wanderers closed in on the win.

Schumacher holds hope that Sheehan's injury will not be something all that bad, whilst also revealing that Eoin Toal will be out for some time.
