Gone to PSV, hasn't he?
I’d seen that it was possible but then not seen an announcement or article to confirm it.

Had Taylor started against Villa there's no way that Cash gets either of his goals, I also believe Taylor would have scored the headed chance that Delcroix wasted, we would therefore have won 2-1.

And then you woke to find your Football Manager game had gone into standby mode.

As much as I like Taylor I can't be the only one who remembers a pretty steady stream of conceded goals coming down our left-hand side in our last Premier League season, especially the early part of it.

Or is everyone still blaming them on McNeil?

What-and score his first goal for us in 6-7 years. Charlie may well end up playing for us from time to time, but by elimination, not by the way he contributes to our current style and team. His performance v Forest mid week proved to me he slows everything down too much and going forwards is a one trick pony

Whatever our thoughts, let's get behind him and the rest of the lads.

Absolute rubbish - they clearly caught us on the break and with the overload. Diaby was fantastic and our midfield was overrun which gave their wing backs Cash and Digne loads of space to bomb forward.
As for Taylor scoring that header is that confidence based on the number of headers he’s scored for us in the last 6 or 7 years ? Or is it prolific heading ability at Leeds ?

That headed chance was only really half a chance and in my opinion it was a decent header.

I've seen CT have some very good games against the likes of Salah.

Taylor is a perfect Left Back / Defender in a Sean Dyche team. In the current team he just can't move the ball on quickly enough and moves often break down as he needs to turn back too often. Being unable to do anything with his right foot is part of the problem.

That header was a great effort from memory, and I also think the first goal may not have been conceded with him there. I disagree with their second. I don’t mind Taylor, and at the time he was what we needed to replace Ward whose legs had gone. He’s not what Kompany wants from a left back, but he seems to be the best option we have right now. I’d rather him play there than a centre back.

Equally clear that without him, it ain’t working.
