We want them to emulate a centre half when the ball is about to be launched from the opposite wing then we want them to overlap and resemble a winger, when the ball is on their side. wonder we don't ask them to play centre forward too, with runs through the middle. Alan does this every now and then by accident to be fair. lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutton has been pretty attacking minded since being on the left. Drives forwards and passes it forward and starts things off. Doesnt try and dribble round people but regularly beats a player with a burst of pace to put us on the front foot. The difference with taylor was very noticable. Many times the ball had to be hit long by defence or keeper after he was given the ball but either dithered, played poor ball or just went backwards. First half it happened pretty much every time he got the ball. Im no taylor hater, the difference is clear to see. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meregreen Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Neither Taylor or Hutton are good enough. Both are too easily beaten by opposition wide men. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No talk of release or new deal I believe Bruce confirmed a couple of months back that he would only be offered a new deal if we get promoted (presumably due to FFP).

sne Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Why on earth would we keep him if we got promoted? He's barely passable in the Championship, in the PL he'll to nothing but a liability. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you mean, though, and I don't think he should be a starter in the PL if possible, but we do need a squad. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicon Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Wouldn't mind if we gave him another year if we're still in this division. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He certainly raised the atmosphere and then went on to play really well especially going forward and despite having next to nothing to do defensively made one great challenge in the second half when Derby made a rare break forward. Overall he has had a very good season. Never gives less than 100% and has played well. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted April 28, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted April 28, 2018 Superb, completely galvanised the team when he came on. He's such an important player for us, especially when the midfield are misfiring because he adds impetus to our attacks and drags opposition midfielders out wide to double up creating more room in the middle. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rodders0223 Posted April 28, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 28, 2018 To be fair, he is probably the fastest 33 year old guy that has ever lived. You can see how much he has looked after himself over the years. Would be my starting left back in the play offs without a doubt. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRO Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I love him. he has his detractors....and he is not prefect. but there is so much about his play that is positive......we need to keep him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
