Taye Taiwo

Agree some people amaze me how quick they judge ... Prawn sandwich brigade.

Prawn sandwich? You can kiss my mighty ####. As I said at first, I'm sure he'll be class but he's has two s**t games, and that is a fact. I was there in the freezing cold at Villa Park and again yesterday, so I think I'm able to judge well enough.

The lad has pedigree, that's for certain, but he was awful once again. He needs to step it up asap as we're right back in the s**t again now. If we'd won, I wouldn't be picking faults in our players, but both our full backs are playing poorly at the moment.

Set up 2 goals so far

First at Villa from the own goal and a great ball to swp when he laid it on for Zamora

A bit hesitant at times but let him settle in to read the game better and reckon he will improve with every game

Weren't that Cisse to SWP?

My thought when we got the free kick just outside the box was we were gonna see one of his trademark belters especially as he was lined up with Adel, but no, as usual Adel takes the free kicks and although close yet another off target.

Need to be on target and with power to at least give us a chance of scoring, why not give Taiwo that chance, he's shown he can do it.

[BennyBoyRs]

Got to agree. I thought that was one of the main reasons we bought him. He had a decent enough strike out of nothing at Villa. Easy for the 'keeper, but it was on target.

I think maybe Hughes wants him to have more confidence before he takes free kicks.

his positonal play was terrible, at times he didnt know if he should jockey or commit to tackle but as ive heard on here u dont get signed by ac milan if u cant play

Some italian and spanish teams have a different style of play regarding attacks down the wing. If you look at the CL matches, you see two players normally snuffing out the winger, one jockeying, the other one coming in for the tackle.

On no account will they let a player pass them to get a cross in. They force them inside. AC milan probably play that way and taiwo is possibly not used to having no backup in these situations, so for me that's between him and MH to sort out.
