He's only ever going to be in trouble up against a beast in the air, otherwise he's usually spot on positionally.

 

This, he played fantastic, made some goal saving blocks but Rooney was poor today. Will be different next week against either Giroud or Walcott.

Thought he was great until he nearly cost us a goal for allowing Smalling the header that hit the post then clearing the ball straight at Carrick or Schneiderlin at the end that they nearly scored

Brilliant today.

 

Although he did get bullied in the air for Man Utd's closest chance by Smalling. But much better defending on the deck today than previously.

Was that the one at the end? He nearly tore Colo's shirt off, man.

Both Colo and Taylor looked brilliant. As much as Taylor is seriously limited, his willingness to put his body on the line in games like this is priceless.

taylors problem has never been lack of talent as a cb, he's actually reasonably good he's just prone to major brain failure and made of glass

Aye. He has talent. Good defensively. Fairly quick. Good in the air. Strong. Decent positionally. Being made of glass and doing idiotic things is his issue.

You could clearly see his shirt being pulled, no surprise that TCD is backing the Man U cheat though.

It was a fair aerial duel.

What are you going on about man, you knacker? It was a clear foul that the referee missed. :lol:

Brilliant today, hopefully a much needed confidence booster. Worth noting though, as others have said, that the game was played perfectly to his strengths, no big striker having cross after cross whipped in to him, so no aerial duels to contend with, and as we played so deep there was no chance for anyone to get in behind him. When it's all played on the deck in front of him/trying to play through the CBs he will look like a world beater 9 times out of 10.
