Elliottman Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 It's sort of frightening that he looks a different class to Williamson. Both as bad as each other. They go through cycles of one being s*** so the other one steps in and we look solid again and the naive think he's good. After a while they slip back into s*** mode and get dropped. Repeat and repeat nah, I can't agree. Taylor's an idiot but he's head and shoulders above Williamson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 His idiocy makes it closer than it should be, Williamson is shite but he's smarter than Taylor which means in some situations he is better. In any event both of them should be nowhere near the club, matter about starting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggs Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Taylor's better than Williamson in almost every respect. He's just thick as fuck and ludicrously injury prone. He is better but not that much better. Williamson is a bad player but is capable of putting in solid performances at times. Taylor can look like a very good defender in some games but in other games he just completely loses the head because as you pointed out he is thick as fuck. The way I would put it is Taylor's good performances are better than Williamson's good performances but Taylor's bad games are worse than Williamson's bad games Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Crooks Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 There are tampons with more guile, skill and presence than Mike Williamson. Taylor isn't THAT bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Taylor is miles better than Williamson IMO. He still has his moments where he's utterly useless and can't be relied on due to his injury record, so over a season they're about as much use as each other.

themanupstairs Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Taylor also offers more of a goal threat/ability to cause chaos in the opposition box than Williamson ever could. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Williamson is thicker than Steven like. Goes pressing into midfield then can't get back. Leaves massive gaps. No comparison. Taylor gets too much stick because people don't like him personally Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
summerof69 Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Personally think when fit Taylor is much better than Williamson, Williamson is shit defensively but also puts us under so much pressure with his aimless hoofs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Taylor has had 4,000 injuries and still remains far more mobile and competent with a ball at his feet. He's still thick, unreliable, prone to error and madness and doesn't deserve to be anywhere near our team for footballing and personal (being an ass kisser to every manager currently in place), let me make sure I am clear about that. But based on the shit Williamson has served up the past 15 matches + friendlies, he's FAR worse than Taylor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Completely agree. Taylor's confidence with the ball led to our goal in that last game. Wasn't scared to advance with it and get it forward to the midfielders with more urgency. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 I never believed one player could be as detrimental to a team as Mike Williamson. Completely ruins any possession football and also leaves us exposed defensively. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUICE690 Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 I imagine Williamsons thought process on the pitch goes something like this. "Hey Mike" "Huh?" "Look..." "Is, is that the..." "Yep, that's the ball, and it's coming our way". "Now remember, keep calm, because there's nooo need to panic". "We have several options available to us". "Option 1:". "HOOFED IT!" "Ahh ffs" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Never thought I'd see the day when I was defending Taylor on here, but next to Williamson he's a man mountain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Obviously, individually Taylor is better than Williamson. Williamson did form a fairly decent partnership with Colo that was ok for a while which is something i've not really seen Taylor do with anyone. Anyway, hope we replace both with better players.

Stifler Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 I've always thought that he's a steady CB, it's just every so often he's prone to a blatant error. In my opinion he's better at RB. All in all I would say he's no worse than the average CB, sometimes gets a bit too much stick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
