New Bolton boss Owen Coyle continues to strengthen his squad with the addition of American midfielder Stuart Holden. The 24-year-old arrives at the Reebok Stadium on a short-term contract until the end of the season after leaving Houston Dynamo. He will be hoping to make his mark in English football after injury prevented him from fulfilling his potential during a short spell with Sunderland in 2005. Coyle has urged Holden to seize his opportunity, telling the club's official website: "Stuart has been training with us and he has been doing well. "He has a great energy and desire, and he wants to show that he can play in the best league in the world, so he is a young man with a point to prove."
