Full nelson Posted November 5, 2016 Report Share Posted November 5, 2016 I may be shot down for this but I'd offer Rovers £3million in January and put him up front with TA. I live in nailsworth and watch FGR when ever I can as City are my team. Matt Taylor was a player I banged on about 4 years ago! He's very similar to Sam baldock in that he is very good a stretching defences and is lethal in front of goal, would he come? Maybe not, but he is worth a punt. A very good talent, has proved himself at every level he's played and I would love to see him in red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's already shown he doesn't give a shit about the gas. And we have everything they don't. (C) I imagine we'll be after bigger fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiale Posted November 5, 2016 Report Share Posted November 5, 2016 How about we give our own player the £2 million Engvall a go first ? Maybe Johnson will start using him so we can see what he has to offer - he looked pretty sharp against Hull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shelts Posted November 5, 2016 Report Share Posted November 5, 2016 I certainly think he's good enough to play Championship football, with us I doubt it, be interesting if we made a bid and it became public knowledge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he would score goals in the Championship and if that means we have to lay out some money rather than wait for him on a free, then I'd go for it. Doesn't he have a release clause?

reddogkev Posted November 6, 2016 Report Share Posted November 6, 2016 £3 million sounds a bit crazy, even in today's market, but I'd have no qualms if we signed him for anything from £750,0000 to a maximum of a million quid. Would be quite satisfying and amusing to take one of the Sag's assets and then see him start scoring goals in a City shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect he would have, as Taylor hasn't had one, maybe two, ankle injuries and an illness which has made him lose a lot of weight and fitness. Jury is still out on Engvall, obviously, but judge him in a few months, not now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDOXO Posted November 6, 2016 Report Share Posted November 6, 2016 I'm not aversed to a bid for Taylor. Why not. We sure need something and the Swedish lad has been a total waste so far. Perhaps he'll come good but LJ IS obviously more comfortable right now with Wilbo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbored Posted November 6, 2016 Report Share Posted November 6, 2016 I'm sure others have already said - City could have signed Taylor on a free in the summer. Obviously LJ nor MA considered signing him back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't be averse to it myself if the deal was right but it'll never happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
