My favourite types of Japanese food. Pass the wasabi.

Would snap him up, the right sort of signing.

Because you’ve seen him play, or the right sort of profile?

Completely agree and no he probably hasn't.

Refuses to play in a Europa qualification play off, refuses to play in regular matches, complains when he isn't playing, ****** off his managers at Gent and Standard Liege, out late at night playing snooker with his mates before a big match and he grabbed the mike after a match to sing a homophobic song at the opposition.

Average player, awful attitude, plays only for himself and not the team, boosts his goal tally against weaker teams and struggles against decent teams. He wouldn't be able to recognise a defensive shift if it was shown to him on the world's biggest video screen.

And what else has he done this season?

Nothing of any real note in the early part of the season and practically dropped from the squad. Returned to score 2 goals against 10 man Hertha BSC, who reduced their chances even further with some lamentable off the cuff tactical changes. Went on to make sporadic appearances throughout the middle of the season and experienced a recent purple patch playing against some of the weakest teams in the Bundesliga.

Hopefully, this is a rumour without any substance. If there is any truth in it then our statistical model needs a serious overhaul and we need to learn how to use Google search.

Fortuna Dusseldorf want nearly £15m for him?

Laughable

Didn't Charlie Taylor refuse to play for Leeds at some point (look at him now playing under Sean Mark Dyche)

Yup, but that was in the final year of his contract amidst interest from us. I would question the sanity of any player that chose Leeds over us, let alone their general character, unless it was a move to gain more active playing time or better development prospects. The latter being unlikely.

The only thing that Charlie Taylor can be accused of is making a good career move that brought him to us :D
