Sifu Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Last season in the Championship, he did look okay when he was playing with Coloccini. He's definitely more of a goal threat than Williamson but I'd still have the Willicini partnership next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 He was good last season, better than 'okay'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 I'd still like a new centre back to partner Coloccini. I like Taylor and Williamson as cover but if we put a mirror down the middle of the pitch and find a right-sided defence as good as our left we're laughing. Wouldn't be cheap mind.

Skirge Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 3 in 3 from just coming up for corners and freekicks Hmmmm he is uber cocky and well hate to say it but not to shabby with the ball at his feet.

He is a fkn better shout as a striker than Shola, at least Taylor would put 100% in every game. He is getting to much stick over the Everton game, he was so unfit after an age out injured, he flew forward to try and support that attack but did not have the legs to get back. You can see how he has improved as hit fitness has. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 would anyone still flog taylor? don't see who we'd get better for the money we'd rake in for him personally - seems to be developing a knack with goalscoring too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 They've stripped him down to make him lighter and more mobile, they've worked on his reading of the game as well, but it can't stop there, he's got a lot of catching up to do if he wants to be the player he thinks he is, but for the first time in a couple of years it looks like it could happen. Maybe the injuries are a blessing in disguise, its matured him slightly and gave him some time to reflect. Outscored Carroll since his move to Liverpool as well, bet there's a few txts flying between each other on that one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 his contribution last few games has been impressive both offensively and defensively, hopefully he can pick up where he's left off in pre season and continue to improve Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
