Taylor struggling

Sat Nov 03, 2012 6:12 pm

Every Bolton attack seems to be coming down Taylor's side. Their right winger, Lee, seems to be getting the better of him every time and at times, Taylor is out of position and nowhere to be seen when Bolton hit us on the break down his side. I would put McNaughton on to stop this threat. That's my only concern, apart from that I think both teams have cancelled each other out, so far so good. :ayatollah:

If we're still 1-0 in the last 5 maybe get Kev on for Kim and put Taylor at LW to close the game down. Hopefully we'll be out of sight though.

To be fair Taylor is putting a shift in going forward because kimbo isnt providing any width

I think Connolly has looked pretty week, winger seems to have the better of him. At times as well there have been oppurtunities for him to overlap, shame he doesn't have the pace of SuperKev.

And to be fair to Taylor, Kim Bo hasn't backed him up too much

Happens regularly with him which is why I would rather Mcnaugton playing

I personally think Kim Bo has done a lot of defensive work and has had to cover Taylor a few times, although I take the point that Kim Bo isn't offering any width which is why Taylor is perhaps having to do more overlapping which is why he's struggling to get back at times. Connolly has given away a few fouls, but he hasn't let Eagles get past him once yet, I am a lot happier with Connolly than Taylor so far. A bit worried with Connolly's booking mind so if Eagles continues running at him and starts getting some joy, perhaps this will be one area that will need changing in the second half as Connolly can't risk badly fouling Eagles again.
