Coyle tips Ward to shine

Ward impressed during a brief loan spell with Huddersfield Town last season, when he netted five goals in as many games. The Trotters have lost Johan Elmander at the end of his contract, while Daniel Sturridge has returned to Chelsea following a loan spell at The Reebok. Coyle now has just Kevin Davies, Ivan Klasnic and Robbie Blake, who struggled for action last season, as options in the Bolton attack. "I've been delighted with his level of performances," the Totters boss said of Ward. "He is a terrific young player who is only going to get better."
