We all know that Bryan is a very decent left wing back, and if we can get Adam Matthews back to full fitness, I think he could do a fine job at right wing back. As could Mark Little.

Let's not ruin a promising career but trying to make him into a wing back. We need a decent right wingback before we play 352 please let's not try putting square pegs in round holes! agree.

Fordy62 Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 @Major Isewater @PHILINFRANCE work your magic please boys... Do you know what... I'm gonna use my 1998 a-level (Grade B) to have a go.... "I've had a complicated year; but I've continued to work at having the time to play and stay an international. I've always tried to keep a mentality of hard work and keep a smile (?). Unfortunately that wasn't enough. I could never have had the chance and so I had to make a difficult decision, but one which is best for me & my family. So I am going, after 7 beautiful years, to leave Racing club Lens For a club which has shown great confidence in me: Bristol City. Their ambitious project will permit me to raise to a new level, to work with quality ambitious coaches and to progress further. I am happy to take on this new challenge with a club that has a lot of ambition and a very interesting sporting project, but I'm also sad to leave like this. I am proud of my last 7 years here and I give thanks from the bottom of my heart to the people who've always supported me, my team mates (?), the training team (?) who gave me so much, and also above all the supporters who never left me what ever the circumstances. It is you who make Lens one of the biggest clubs in France. Thank you Lens. I will not forget you.

And amazingly it says.....everything that is said on every forum in England when a young player is sold!! a) not good enough b) too good c) too cheap d) not given a chance e) should have been sold when Lyon bid €10m for him f) He should have gone to a bigger club f) etc It's actually quite comforting that a French club forum is exactly the same as here, One really interesting post was by someone who said that Moore was definitely not your typical English player given how absolutely dire most of our players are, something we can hardly argue with given our Euros appearance. Overall, as I mentioned in an earlier post, it looks as though they were upset at losing him, he may not be the finished article, but could definitely turn in to being a very good player and we should be very happy.

Driving along...the chorus...I'm sure he was singing 'Taylor Moore....let the rhythm take you over...Taylor Moore'. pmsl....apparently not haha. Funny how you hear different words in lyrics. Perhaps the Chorus could be adapted for our new signing and sung on the 'terraces' ;-) Made me giggle anyway...and 'Taylor Moore' will be sung along to this in future in my head if ever heard again ;-) Starts at 49 seconds... Brilliant! I had free tickets to see Enrique at the O2 London 18 months ago, wasn't particularly a fan before but he was fantastic. Downloaded a couple of his albums since and play them now and again, I'm never going to hear this song now without hearing Taylor Moore! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
