I think a lot are pre planned If you were going to change last night, imho it was 5-10 mins after break when we couldn’t get out our half For 20 mins He actually changed it when we’d rattled them a bit and were building a little head of steam !

When you need a goal it does make some sense to sub him for a striker who does score sometimes. Don't really get the love in with Taylor. He's played enough games now to show if he can finish at this level and it's pretty clear the answer is no. was thinking last night he could be a short term answer to missing korey, he is not afraid to get stuck in and has a good football brain with an eye to a good pass, not as daft as it first sounds could be his long term future in the championship, midfield.

Agree....I know, could see the Fam for Taylor on a yellow logic. Pato though? If anything bring Watkins on and swap Eliasson onto the left. 1 minute ago, pillred said: was thinking last night he could be a short term answer to missing korey, he is not afraid to get stuck in and has a good football brain with an eye to a good pass, not as daft as it first sounds could be his long term future in the championship, midfield. Not ever thought of that. Could work if we wanted a busy midfield 3....don’t think he has enough awareness to play as a DM though, very different discipline.

Weakened with limited selection options for up coming important games would have been worse than continuing an impressive performance for approx half an hour more in one match... We got a point safely in the bank, no certainty that with the excellent Taylor on the pitch til the end that result would be any different, and limited guarantee that a red card wouldn't have seen him off sooner anyway. Onwards and upwards, all personnel intact! If you worried about that with the amount of bookings dished out these days though you’d need 5 subs a game. Hunt was booked and looked more likely to be sent off with grealish falling over every tackle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he is a championship player and would like to see him get the full 90 minutes. Perhaps Wednesday at Rotherham ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich_s Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 A lot of sense said about Taylor's attributes but plain and simply he doesn't score. Does anyone see him scoring 10+ a season? I'm all for sentiment but not at the expense of competing at the top of the league at the latter end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loosey Boy Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 I like Taylor for what he does - runs his heart out and is a total pest but.....he’s not someone who’s going to fire us into the Play Offs. An ideal sub to bring on with 20-30 mins to go - nothing more, nothing less Having said that.....the day he signed for us will live long in my memory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately you only get what you pay for in wages, in this league. What is Tammy on again, anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuno Gomes Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 Just wish he would stop giving away needless free kicks. We r in first half stoppage time the ball is played into the channel and installed of trying to keep the ball and play out the little time left he needlessly plays the man. From the turnover the ball goes up our end we concede a free kick and they score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
