TRC Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Will Stevie be in the first team next year? I think he deserves to stay in the team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Depends if he can stay fit. I would be buying somebody at least as good as him because I don't have faith in him doing so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliottman Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Will Stevie be in the first team next year? I think he deserves to stay in the team He'll be rotated with the new centre half. Will start the season second choice though I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRC Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Yeah good point. We need another CB, but if Douglass came in would he be first choice when all is fit? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenham Mag Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Play him as a striker when Cisse and Ba got to the ACON. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I'm also of the opinion that his 14 game spell at the start of the season was far and away the best form of his career to date and the only time I've thought he was actually playing to the standard he was built up to reach. Hopefully he can pick up where he left off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRC Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Yeah agree with that also. He's going to bang the goals in in Europe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Would have sewn up 3rd several games ago had he not got injured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he can pick up where he left off. thats what i was thinking as well,if he can only stay fit,he should be just comming into his prime years.would love for him to do well.

Dokko Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Probably. Therein lies the problem, though. Massive mistake by the board not to commit money for a new CB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlito Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Probably. Therein lies the problem, though. Massive mistake by the board not to commit money for a new CB. They'll not see it like that if things go our way this weekend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Probably. Therein lies the problem, though. Massive mistake by the board not to commit money for a new CB. I thought that in January but to be fair I'm not sure whether we could actually have improved on our points haul since then. Last summer I'd agree, the dip in form before January was almost entirely down to the CB weaknesses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BooBoo Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Yup, that Norwuch game being a stand out. For me, just prior to his injury was Taylor's best form at the club. Him and Colo had formed a very impressive pairing and to an extent we might not see it as a regular pairing again, with a centre back likely to arrive in the summer. Just such an unfortunate injury which have really blighted this lad's career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Reckon he would have made the Euros if he stayed fit and kept up that form. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sifu Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 As much as I would love Saylor back in the team, his injury record these past couple of years has been pretty poor. Honestly don't think we can count on him to last a full season. Shame, he really was in the form of his life prior to his injury in December - if he can replicate this form when he does come back from injury, then of course, we'll have a valuable player on our hands. I imagine we'll rotate our CBs quite a bit next season anyway, what with all the extra games and all that so think we'll still see quite a bit of Saylor.

Fenham Mag Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Still believe we need an English element in the team and it should be Saylor and Colo first choice IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 His injury was completely unrelated to anything he'd had before, I think it's unfair to say he's just injury prone. He's not Dyer or Woodgate, even Marveaux, breaking down with muscle injuries every five minutes. He's had, what, a dislocated shoulder, a bad knee and a ruptured Achilles that I can think of? I don't think that's injury prone as such, more like really bad luck, I hope so anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Will Stevie be in the first team next year? I think he deserves to stay in the team If we can improve on any positions then we need to do that. There's no room for sentiment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Hopefully we won't have a first choice centre half pairing, we'll have a group of centre halves, all capable and able to come in whenever and do as good a job as each other. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
