Ryan Taylor

Ryan Taylor isn't any better than Perch. Classic case of a player getting better when they're out of the team.

 

Aye. Taylor has better delivery though, which could have helped in the first half today.

Exactly. He's not better but his skillset would have been better suited. I'd say Taylor has more technique than Perch but Perch is clearly fitter than Taylor with better recovery pace to boot.

ain't much difference between perch and raylor, perch has better defensive qualitys than taylor but nowhere near as good going forward.

the thing is with taylor that i think hes probably more a right sided midfielder than he is a full back

Thing is with Taylor is he'll grab quite a few assists and a couple of goals to boot, aswell as better link up play going forward. Taylor in the side for 'all the other things' he does with Jonas ahead of him to link up with in attack and defence. I think that partnership would be a lot more effective than the current Perch & Routlege partnership, which is our weakest part of the team in my opinion.

I agree that we need a RB who can defend,, Perch cannot he has proven that and is also shit at going forward.. at least Taylor would offer more in attack and from his set piece taking.

 

Lesser of two evils.. Simpson well he is a blend of both really.. not great at attacking not great at defending but better than Perch.

We signed Routledge cos Taylor wasn't good enough, man... short memories. What we'd gain in a dead ball specialist (that is all Taylor has going for him), we'd lose in absolutely everything else. Routledge just needs a bollocking - he doesn't need dropping, he's not playing well at the moment but he's still the best option we have for right-wing.

Is that why Hughton dropped him today? He's been dog s*** so far this season.

You could almost say Taylor's getting better with every game he doesn't play. ;)

Ben Arfa's injured now, i'm speaking in the current context. I agree that he's looked out of his depth but i'd never, in a million years, get Taylor in ahead of him.

 

Or doing useful things when he does play in the Carling Cup.

I thought he was fairly poor against Chelsea, aside from the superbly executed FK. Besides, he was at full-back.
