Optimistic Nut Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Granted he'd hardly played so mightn't have been fully fit, but he wasn't good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Not that I'd put any real stock in what Taylor tells the local hacks but I remember him saying a couple of years back that he feels far more comfortable in the centre. He's most likely contradicted it somewhere, though. And another thing, if today's Taylor has one glaring weakness it's dealing with players running at him. He doesn't go backwards well at all.

Guest je85 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Colo in midfield while we are at it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest VaVaVoom Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Suggesting Saylor at RB is pure stupidity in my position. Id rather we got M'biwa who may be happy being a rotation option and get a quality LB so our back four looks like... Santon---Saylor---Coloccini---Pieters/Cissokho M'biwa covering the whole back like and Williamson 4th choice CB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagten Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 We should just be tying Simpson down to a five year deal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 No thanks if we are going to buy Vertonghen then Taylor goes to the bench, i want two quality fullbacks not one quality one and a CB at RB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Think Saylor would do quite well at RB if he can get back to his old self from the start of the season. A lot are scarred by his 'horror show' last March but reckon he'd surprise people. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 He likes to get forward so I would have thought he would have been suited to RB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 I would like to see this next season: Saylor Colo Vertonghen Santon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Taylor at RB Wasn't bad 5 years ago, he has settled at CB now though and looks good there. That said if we sign another CB to partner Colo he might be trying to get in anywhere he can or moving somewhere else, cant see him wanting to be 3rd choice.

Ameritoon Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 If it came to the point of us having Colo, Saylor and Vertonghen, Saylor will fit in quite nicely as our third centerback. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormy Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 If it came to the point of us having Colo, Saylor and Vertonghen, Saylor will fit in quite nicely as our third centerback. If not, has he ever been considered at right back? Has all the attributes imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Saylor is worse at RB than he is a CB. We should buy a quality natural RB otherwise we aren't really strengthening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Oh, I'd much rather buy a proper one but I don't think he'd do as badly as expected if needed to fill in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Signing Clyne would be very nice. Tavernier stepping up could be an option too, Simpson needs the competition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
