Bolton boss Freedman welcomes Holden comeback

After FA Cup defeat to Everton, Bolton Wanderers boss Dougie Freedman reserved special praise for USA midfielder Stuart Holden.

Holden came on as a late substitute to make his first appearance at the Reebok Stadium since March 2011 after a serious knee injury.

Freedman said: "It's very emotional for everyone because Stuart has worked very hard. He has got a long way to go and will be playing in the reserves on Monday night. He is certainly on the right path."
