He really does have a more skilful touch than most we have seen at this level for the last few years (league2/conference) , he appears to get in good positions and has the instinct of a striker. For me the issue is that he snatches at his chances sometimes and a split second more composure would yield more goals. That said he would be the first forward on my team sheet and if he had not had quite such a barren spell at the beginning of the season he would be on 18 or so. Matt Harrold or Matt Taylor..........easy choice. I think we will see the best of him next season.

Just had a little look through the highlights of recent games, and I don't think you can really blame Taylor for any partnership failings: Vs Chester - key passes to Harrison for 3rd and 4th goals. Vs Aldershot - assisted 1st goal for Easter Vs Braintree - assisted 2nd goal for Harrison
I seems to remember him laying on most of Blissetts goals too.

Faggotygas, Read what I have written,not what you want to think I have written! I have said a partnership WITH another striker not other players. Tell me who he has formed an attacking partnership with? Yes he brings OTHER players in the game but is rarely close to whoever is in the middle with him. I do like Matty Taylor and he is a good footballer but the problem is that we really need to be finding a partnership. Maybe it means playing Matty in a different position where he is not expected to stay in the middle and work with a fellow striker. The problem is he is not a prolific goalscorer and is not a winger. Playing how he does at the moment is OK if we are cruising a game ie Chester but is not so good in a tight game like Macclesfield away. We've scored 8 goals on our last 2 home games, I'm not sure that supports the view he can't form a partnership with other players? At the end of the day if we'd said in August our top scorer would get 18/20 goals we'd have all taken that, the problem is that our No 9's this season Brunt/Cunnington/Blisset have all been so poor and now Easter's become injury prone, imagine where we'd be now with a front two of Akknde/Taylor or even Rendell/Taylor.

Oh no, it's the Matty Taylor debate again, scores one and he's Ronaldo, not that Ronaldo would risk spoiling his hairstyle with a header, and all his many misses are forgotten; if he had put half of those away we would be champions by now. That Sir is spot on.He is a waster of the highest order.

Same thread every other week.
Sure Taylor isn't perfect, but he's doing ok. Of course he could have scored more goals but never mind, if my uncle had a fanny he'd be my aunty. The fact is this is taking away the focus from people making s**t videos and photoshops making us all look like idiots.

There's a guy on the other forum called Tbonegas who appears to hate Matt Taylor, and can never see any good in anything he does, I don't understand it myself, he's been one of the best forwards we've signed in recent years imo, yes he could have probably had 25/30 goals with some misses but he might still end up with 17/18 goals this season, and his other contributions make him the first on the team sheet as far as I'm concerned, still, perhaps people that know tbone, or tbone himself could tell me why he hates him so much? And I think reading his comments hate is the right word to use

I don't hate Taylor.I don't even know the waster.What I do hate is the fact that he is no good at his job.He is a striker.Strikers are paid to score goals and given his piss poor goals/chances ratio, it is not difficult to argue with my assessment of his prowess in front of goal.I would love it if he was up to the job.Sadly that is not the case. We should already be promoted by now,the fact that we are not is mainly due to his inability to score easy chances.

I think I will withdraw from this discussion as I don't want to be thought of as hating Matty Taylor as that could not be further from the truth as I think he is a good footballer but not a good striker,an alright one but IMO and the point I was making was that he has no chance of building a partnership UNTIL he plays somewhere near them whether that be Blissett, Harrison, Easter or anybody else. As someone says lets enjoy the fact we have actually started to score some goals and we are second in the league and could ,hopefully still be Champions.

Taylor's a waster, DC an idiot, you do have to wonder why you bother supporting Rovers.

Ignore Boner just an attention seeking mug. Moaned about ZFC ignoring him yet when he had the chance to meet him he bottled it saying he had to work.

I'm convinced Tbone is employing some sort of reverse psychology thing with Taylor, the better he plays the more vociferous his criticism becomes!
