Ex-Villa defender Knight delighted with Bolton move

Former Aston Villa defender Zat Knight is delighted with his move to Bolton Wanderers.

Knight, who signed for Bolton in the summer on a three-year-deal, praised Gary Megson for rejuvenating his career after it had stalled during a two-year stint at Aston Villa.

"I'm really enjoying it here. The boys are very friendly, and I feel I have fitted in very well," he said.

"I knew half of the team before I came here, and the manager has given me a new lease of life - playing me week in week out, whereas it was much more stop-start at Villa.

"The way he prepares his teams is great. I say to all my friends and family, every game I go into I feel very confident that we are going to come out with something - and I haven't felt like that for a long time."
