Langford Red Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 Whats happening with Taylor!? Is he injured, or did we just buy him to p**s the GASH off? £5.2 mill on another striker. To me he is never worth that money and we will not see it back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBFC II Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 I think we will see the 5.3 mill back on Diedhiou, he isn't as good as kodjia but can see him getting 15 plus this season and then he'll go to a big club for 7-8 mill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pongo88 Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 He seems to have had a series of injuries this season. Disappointing as his link up play last season was good, but his finishing poor. I was hoping for an improvement this season. He’s scored regularly at a lower level so he must have some ability. Maybe not a 20+ goals player at Championship level, but he should be better than some of the run of the mill aging strikers we see in other teams at Ashton Gate.

tinman85 Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 Taylor is a good player. He needs to be playing. I would drop Reid back in to the mid and stick him with Famara. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One 0-0 draw and all of a sudden we need to change the front two who are 2 of the top 5 scorers in the league so far this season...Taylor is a useful player but not prolific at this level thus far..12 games unbeaten why change the personnel...glad you are not a manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Engvall's Splinter Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 Would've had Taylor on the bench. He's a pest, makes runs, opens the game up for others. Only issue with yesterday's selection. Edit; Didn't realise he was injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether it was just Burton's tactics or teams have rightly identified him as a threat they need to stifle we will have to see. Taylor or Duric would have given us very different options, but as pointed out neither were fit or available to the argument is nul and void.

Where most have been saying he will never amount to much and sell him or loan him out etc. But pushing him forward has been a revelation this season.

And yet he was unlucky on 3 occasions that I could see on the highlights, including having what looked like a perfectly good goal ruled out.

Think people are forgetting how incomplete a player Kodjia was for us because Abraham was so good. As for Taylor, he is injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reid, like most of City's players got frustrated with the lack of service which was entirely down to Burtons stifling tactics, He started to drop deeper simply to get a touch of the ball and by doing that left Diedhiou even more starved of service.

I guess Bobby has been so outstanding this season, not only when scoring but his work rate too, that it showed last night when his every touch wasn't as productive as usual. Burton did a job on us for sure making it difficult and frustrating as we couldn't play with our normal freedom and flair. They isolated our players, Bobby, Diedhiou, Leko and it showed.

"Not prolific" is an understatement, as for the OP, what exactly are you on about? Reid (playing in what would presumably be Taylor's position) has been as good as anyone for us this season, so are you seriously suggesting that he shouldn't be in the side?
