  • He can hopefully provide some attacking threat in the centre of pitch I think it will be him and this new lad from city sharing that more attacking role 
    Thought he was more defensive?

    Maybe you’re right, I think I’m getting mixed up. I seem to remember people talking about his set piece ability 
  • Hopefully he can show what he's got and stay fit. Was quite excited when he signed and definitely see him as a strong option for the 3rd CM slot with Fiorini and Bakinson. 
  • Taylor was an exciting signing and having him return all joking aside will be like a new signing. Him, Coventry, Fiorini, Dobson, and Bakinson plus Camara when he’s back will be quite a strong midfield to select from. 
    I know he’s not shown it yet but Mcgrandles I think could show what he’s about too. He did very well under MA previously 
    True but I get the feeling that he might be going in the summer.
  • I know this isn't the Mcgrandles thread but will be interesting to see how he fits back in too. A lot of competition even if Fraser goes and Anderson is loaned out

    I thought he's looked much better when he appeared after Appleton took over, again been unlucky in that regard with fitness

  • Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s loaned out if we keep Dobson in this window. 
  • Good luck lad, it's almost feels like we have a first team squad of 76 if they ALL came back from injury... A&Ekee excepted of course, because that would be a crazy proposition.
  • Will it be Taylor, McGrandles or Camara playing as a No 9 this season, when we fail to bring someone in  ;)
  • I think we have 10 central midfielders when they're all fit (lol etc). Dobson, Fraser, McGrandles, Bakinson, Fiorini, Anderson, Taylor, Watson, Camara and Coventry. I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't see Taylor at all this season. He was put back in early at the start of this season and he was pretty poor, so he's obviously not a player who benefits from playing while unfit. I think we'd be better off just getting him shaped up for the rest of the season, maybe putting him in towards the end to get a bit more match practice into him.

    More likely it would mean Karoy can get a loan.

    I think the plan is to play with two deeper lying midfielders. One more a sitting/playmaking type, one a bit more all action and box to box(ish). Probably Coventry and Taylor more fit the first role and Dobson and Bakinson the latter so it gives us competition and options which is good.

    Hopefully Taylor can push on from here because he seems to be well rated generally by those who know more about League One and things outside Charlton than I do.

    In the limited playing time he’s had since joining us, he certainly looked capable of taking a decent corner. Something we’ve been lacking for years. Fingers crossed he gets a decent run of games on his return. 
  • Glad he’s back training and I hope he can now get a good run of it. No need to rush him, plenty of options ahead of him in Dobson, Coventry & Bakinson. 
  • He looked a good signing, and one for the future when we brought him in. Shit luck with injuries obviously but he always felt like "Dobbo Insurance." Between him and Coventry, if both comes good it feels like it will be two of three from them. And for as much as I love Dobbo, Coventry and Taylor seem better equipped to play on the half turn and in tight spaces, even if they aren't quite as good at breaking up play.

    A narrow 0-10-0 looks the best bet at the moment

  • What happened to this guy?
  • Think he's just being managed back. We've got enough midfielders that he doesn't really need to be rushed. Would think he gets on the bench for one of the next 3.

    Or will he have another run out in the under 23?
  • Maybe he’s not any good like most of the other signings from the last 9 months ?

    Yeah if he's not involved on Saturday with the first team I'd expect to see him with the Under 23s next week. 
  • Under 23s? Do we have such a team?
  • All these players I keep thinking could do a job for us in L2 next season  :D

    How will he even get on the bench, unless we fill it with midfielders?
  • Didn't play in U21's yesterday or make first team squad which is a bit odd.
  • Its been quiet on the Terry Taylor front for a long time. Had to go back pages to find this.
    I thought a couple of months ago he was back in training ? 
    Has he gone back to the treatment room with his old long term roommate Chuks?
