Whites Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 I honestly believe this is going to be a huge season for the Snake. Johnson on record recently saying that it was the first time he's been 100% fit since he joined us. I would love to see him have a good pre-season, like Bobby did last, and then push on in the league, especially with Famara banned for the first six games. If Bobby goes, he's in with a huge chance of becoming one of a main two strikers along with Famara and/or another one we bring in, if bobby stays I'd love to see him in a attacking role from midfield, despite this season I still think it's his best position (puts tin hat on). I may be wrong and Taylor will probably end up on loan somewhere now I've said this, but genuinely belive this will be a good season for him. I'll be having a cheeky fiver on him being our top scorer if he's here when the season starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZiderEyed Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 I'm in a minority here that have always rated Taylor. He was vital in keeping us up and if he had a big bastard next to him I reckon he'd score a few more. Itd be unwise to move him on IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carey 6 Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 He's not scored the goals, but he's not had a decent run in the starting line up either. I'd like to see him get that next season. Certainly repaid the 300k back and more. Must have got 5 or 6 assists to keep us up in 16/17 season, and then last season helped us through the cup run, and got us into the semi finals with a great pass to Smith.

123red1 Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 I like Taylor and think he adds something different when he plays, but I have a feeling we've seen the last of him in a City shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeh Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 when fit he's a handful, given a full season he'll get you 10 orr 15 goals but he's quite good at pulling defenders all over te place and creating space for other players, he's got good movement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bar BS3 Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 I quite like MT. On his day, he’s comfortably good enough for this level and if it’s the first time he’s been fully fit (unsurprising as it’s his first properly professional Club) I think he could have more to offer, rather than less.

Spoons Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 I like him for 1 reason he plays for us and we paid £300k for him from rovers and it still pissed them off. Good squad player not sure he's got it in him to be starting week in week out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That versatility is worth a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZiderEyed Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Just now, Nogbad the Bad said: Do you think Milan is a big enough bastard? I do. It's no coincidence his best performances (imo) have come next to Diedhiou. I do wonder whether Djuric changes the way we play too much for him to function right next to MD. Long balls and feeding on scraps isn't exactly ideal for a player with his movement, I'd rather see us keep the ball on the ground and let him pull the team out of shape, with direct wingers and someone like FD to carry the ball. IMHO next to Diedhiou the best is yet to come from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 I love the way he gets in the opposition`s faces - particularly when he comes on for the last twenty with defenders on yellows. As others have said he`s repaid his transfer fee ten times over with his contribution to date too. He`s very underrated IMO and I hope we keep him.

He was excellent v Stoke & Palace (and Man Utd of course), both with Famara until he injured himself v Palace - don`t forget MT only played in that game because we appealed his red v Leeds on the Saturday. Scored some bloody good goals too. The irony is, if Woodrow hadn`t been cup-tied, would MT have even played in those cup games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFC11 Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Aslong as Matty is happy here he will be going nowhere, LJ rates him highly, given a good run of games and staying fit he’ll be a major asset for us this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E.G.Red Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 'I've always rated him, felt it was difficult when he first joined us as many undervalued him and thought us buying him was just a way of winding up Rovers and their fans. Finally getting recognition that there is a decent player there. Had a lot to contend with in the first few weeks (having to move house) and injury didn't help. would like to see him getting more game time next season think he could do well for us.
