    I remember i suggested the Connahs Quay RB as an alternative more successful and experienced in Europe to O'Donnell.

    I just have this horrible feeling we will sign Taylor and O’Donnell in a double deal on deadline day!

    It could be a decent bit of business as he does have some talent. KT and Robertson are the best LB’s in the UK and they were able to develop well in Scotland so there is a chance that Taylor can develop in the same way.

    However, for the here and now, I am not happy for him to be KT’s specific replacement. Can we genuinely imagine him playing against the top teams if we make it to the CL at this point?

    Would have been fine back up (with the possibility of developing into a 1st choice) if we didnt spend 3 million on Boli but it looks like we still need a starting left back.

    Surely there must be an experienced European left back who plays for one of the seasoned CL qualifier teams? The likes of Melling at Rosenberg or the Red Star LB?

    Absolute joke if this is KT's replacement. We should be looking at someone in the 5-7m range so we can get proven quality. How the board can think it's acceptable to replace our best lb in 30 years or maybe more with a project is beyond infuriating. Assuming this is true which it looks like.

    To be fair every * was moaning about Hatem and he looks a great addition. If we get him then I’m sure he’ll do well but we are definitely aiming higher.

    There is a big difference between those two scenarios though: most people have already seen Taylor play, Hatem was an unknown quantity.

    I would have taken him as a squad player if KT were still here, or Bolingoli could defend. As it is we need someone to be our first choice LB and that is not Taylor.

    The lads alright, could get slightly better too - but what's the point? what's the vision here?

    It feels a lot like when we signed Johhny Hayes. People said, "he's decent, he'll do a job for us in the SPL". But he never did and he never will.

    By signing this guy we are also recognising that Boli is our No.1 left back...a not a very good backup to push him for the slot. Christ. But then again, did we ever think that the club were gonna spend 3m on a back up left back?

    Never seen or heard of him

    Can someone with decent knowledge tell us his strengths and weaknesses?
