Mellberg tips Elmander for success

03 March 2010 09:33
Elmander has struggled to live up to his £10million price tag since joining Bolton from Toulouse in 2008.[LNB]The 28-year-old has scored only one league goal this term for a team that are just two points above the relegation zone.[LNB]However, he remains highly regarded in his homeland and Mellberg believes new Trotters boss Owen Coyle should persist with him.[LNB]"I haven't seen too much of Bolton to have a great opinion but I know Johan as a player," said Mellberg, 32.[LNB]"Bolton have struggled in the Premier League - it is really tough - and it is a big change to come from where he came from and was able to dominate. But he is very hard-working and a good striker. I am sure he will do very well in the future."[LNB][LNB]
