James Trafford - 7
A few nervous moments early on but came through well after that, making intelligent decision of when to come out and collect. Was rarely troubled by Posh in terms of having to make savs
Gethin Jones - 7.5
Generally solid on the right of the back three and got forward when he could to support Bradley with attacks.
Ricardo Santos - 8
Bolton skipper lined up against former club and up against Jonson Clarke-Harris. Did well up against one of League One's best marksmen who rarely had a sniff at goal.
George Johnston - 7
Booked before half-time. Looked solid defensively throughout the encounter on the left of the back three.
Conor Bradley - 7
Saw great first half chance go wide. Otherwise caused problems down the right flank for Wanderers, as he has done against many opponents so far this season.
MJ Williams - 8
Provided some steel in the midfield area and generally reliable in possession. Broke up many Posh attacks throughout the games.
George Thomason - 7.5
Continued in central midfield for the third game in a row. Looked decent once again in the middle of the park.
Jack Iredale - 6
Booked midway through first half. Crossing decent at times but saw great chance early in the second half saved. Replaced before full-time.
Kyle Dempsey - 7
Only change made as came into team for benched Kieran Lee. Continued after early injury scare and looked bright on the ball. Taken off before 70 minutes.
Dion Charles - 7
Worked hard upfront to harrass and harry the Posjh rearguard throughout. Saw chance from outside the box tipped over by Lucas Bergstrom.
Elias Kachunga - 6.5
Kept starting place after MK Dons performance. Decent hold-up play and pressing at times. Taken off before 70 minutes.
