Bolton Wanderers goalkeeper Ali Al-Habsi has recently clinched a season long loan move to
Premier League rivals Wigan Athletic, but Wanderers boss Owen Coyle insists that the Oman keeper

Al-Habsi was clearly never going to get significant playing time at the Reebok Stadium with

into Al-Habsi's loan deal should anything happen to their number one.
With much lower scoring matches and a few surprise results, this week's Team of the
Week sees a cadre of players from unlikely sides populating the squad. The normal performers
are still involved, but a few of the keen buys showed that maybe they deserve a more serious look.
This week's side in a 4-3-3 and earned a lowly 111-points, but their value of £73.
First in a rather ambitious series of alliterative footballers. Starting, as you'd expect with

your Xs" of this world.. Nonetheless, here we go...
In goal is former Bolton Wanderers and now Wigan Athetic, Omani goalkeeper Ali
Al-Habsi.
