HanoiVillan Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 I only watched about 15 minutes of that game, but jesus christ . . . forget everything bad I said about you Neil, there's no possible way you can be worse than Amavi, so welcome aboard I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuwabatake Sanjuro Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I'd say Olsson replacing him at Swansea has played a good part in their upturn in form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allani Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 http://www.walesonline.co.uk/incoming/neil-taylor-reveals-left-aston-12538335 Doesn't say a whole lot about the reasons why he left - but posted it as I think it is an interesting insight into how the player conducts himself. Lots of positive messages about how he enjoyed his time there and was keen for a new challenge. Comes across pretty well. Of course part of the criticism from some Swansea fans was his close relationship with the press (apparently he could always be relied on for an exclusive for Swansea or Wales) - so it will be interesting to see how we feel about that in the coming months / seasons.

WellI'm hoping with the midfield we now have, we won't be relying on the full backs to provide too much attacking expertise. If he can actually defend, he'll be an improvement!

Taylor was a regular when Swansea had good defensive records in 11/12 and 14/15. I'm happy with the signing....international regular and plenty of experience. Of course the problem is the majority of our really good signings on paper are really mediocre on grass atm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) Really hope we are not going to play 3-5-2/5-3-2 with full backs who sit back and can't/won't attack. That would be pathetic and very much a McLeish tactic. Edit: Especially if the plan is to have Jedi sit deep and protect the back 5 Edited February 10, 2017 by sne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Did he win a tackle? Biggest bottler since Downing, wouldn't trust him to win a 70/30, worst one being the one in their box where if he got a toe on it he'd have put hourihane in, instead he just looked at it utter garbage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
