Taylor the only negative from last night on 11:09 - Sep 20 with 3871 views | Cheltenham_Blue | Work rate was very good, just selected the wrong ball or gave it away too often. Suspect he's woken up this morning wondering if he really took his opportunity. | |

Taylor the only negative from last night on 11:12 - Sep 20 with 3853 views | FrimleyBlue | He's got a lot to learn for this style imo, Massimo and Morsy have years of experience behind them on how to trap a ball, gain a yard of space whilst being marked by 2 players at the same time. Taylors having to learn that. You can see his style has always been direct midfield play, but his shielding of the ball etc is poor. It will come though. But you saw the difference as soon as Luongo came on. | |

Taylor the only negative from last night on 11:14 - Sep 20 with 3857 views | Garv | Bit harsh to call him a negative I think. He started a bit wayward but grew into the game and always tried to be positive. Forcing out Massimo long term is going to be a slog for him. | |

Thesaurus correction - improvement needed, and yes hes kne injury away from being in the team | | | |
Taylor the only negative from last night on 11:23 - Sep 20 with 3761 views | Ftnfwest | He'll learn and bring his own style to the system when he's needed. I think Kieran was especially please last night because he was able to give a couple of key players a 'rest' and they'll be fresh for Saturday, but still got a result as well. | | | |
Taylor the only negative from last night on 11:26 - Sep 20 with 3740 views | xrayspecs | He will be fine. Clarke is getting back to full fitness Williams is getting fitter and learning our system Omari is learning his role in and out of possession. All have improved with game time, so will Taylor. There is a reason KM chased him for three transfer windows. | | | |
I thought Taylor showed improvement in some of his decision making on 11:26 - Sep 20 with 3741 views | unstableblue | Yes it took a while to fully get into the game. But I don't think he was as bad as some are making out. He was trying to look and pass forward more than in previous games, and he made some good tackles. He's quicker than Luongo as well. I think game time is going to help him. And he just needs to reduce some of the weaker decision making and misplaced passes. I'm confident he'll make it here. | |

Taylor the only negative from last night on 11:32 - Sep 20 with 3709 views | _clive_baker_ | I wouldn't read too much in to it. 2 or 3 times he got caught in possession, needs to use the ball a bit quicker and be a bit tighter in possession, but that wont be news to him. I think Wolves is a good opportunity to put him in from the start again. There's a good player in there. | | | |
Taylor the only negative from last night on 11:34 - Sep 20 with 3689 views | TRUE_BLUE123 | We have seen Morsy and Luongo for what seems like 200 games in a row now going to be very difficult for anyone to come in and look instantly comfortable. But I thought he did ok, worked hard made some nice forward runs, was strong in the air. Promising debut away at a good team. | |

Being at the game I was excited to see Taylor play. He just seemed slightly nervous, and maybe a bit overwhelmed. Good work rate, few good tackles, but needs to calm down when in possession. Two hospital balls played before being hooked. Get him in v Wolves. | | | |
Taylor the only negative from last night on 11:53 - Sep 20 with 3565 views | berkstractorboy | Here's an idea. Let's not look for any negatives from last night, KM rotated the squad a little yet we still beat a Saints team with very good (but out of sorts) players. We've just got to enjoy this for a while and let the squad develop as we will need them all at some point and of course some aren't as good as the others but they need time on the pitch to develop, its certainly helped Williams and Hutchinson. | | | |

Here's an idea, crazy I know. But how about we all be grown up and discuss football like it has been for years, discuss pro's, cons etc etc of football. Fk me, since when did football become just a pro positive discussion sport. so odd. | |

Taylor the only negative from last night on 12:00 - Sep 20 with 3502 views | JackNorthStand | Brandon Williams also has much to improve. Gets nowhere near the level or style of Leif. Fortunately Leifs injury is only short term. [Post edited 20 Sep 2023 12:00]

Discussion fine but why do we have to find a negative. It's just the connotation when a post starts with negative in the title. BTW i don't think you can call out anyone for being odd with some of the tosh you spout on here. | | | |
Taylor the only negative from last night on 12:03 - Sep 20 with 3462 views | Wickets | I sort of thought he was kinda ok first half but seemed to run out of steam second either that or he lost his confidence after a mistake or two , it was the right time to sub him .What we do know is he is a quality player at this level and will get more chances and bounce back . | | | |

I think you are confusing people giving a point of view of areas for improvement with people “ being negative “ for the sake of it. | | | |
Or to flip that on 12:13 - Sep 20 with 3411 views | Dyland | How positive for Jack and us fans that he had some nervous moments and wasn't up to speed in a first league start that a) he will learn from and b) was a tough away game we fackin won, so his line fluffing didn't matter. Indeed, his fluffs will benefit him and the team in the longer term. Reality is that we don't have a squad of supermen, as hard as that is to comprehend on this ridiculously good run. Many better players than Taylor have come into better teams and been equally nervy or worse. He'll be fine. | |

Possibly true Jack but our fanbase has many that are negative for the sake of it! | | | |

You’re not wrong. However, on this point, I agree with Jack and Frimmers. Taylor is a discussion point, and he had an off day. Plus, it’s clear that we ALL are looking forward to seeing him grow and become a key player for us. | | | |

He joined Chelsea's academy at 7 years old. I'm pretty sure he's been taught how to trap a football. | | | |
Taylor the only negative from last night on 12:53 - Sep 20 with 3118 views | RedX | I get the impression he’s a guy who’s going to get very frustrated if not starting. | | | |
Taylor the only negative from last night on 12:55 - Sep 20 with 3095 views | pointofblue | Seeing him play, I wonder whether he could benefit more from backing up Chaplin and playing slightly further forward. Have a more defensive central midfield behind him and be able to push forward more. | |

Agree Taylor is a discussion point, just get grumpy when I see the title use the word negative as feels like just another needless negative post we get on here. However its world's apart and I should take my grumpiness elsewhere | | | |
