    Williamson. I think Taylor is the better defender, but he got injured last time because we brought him back into the first team too quickly.

    100% agree, Willo is a good defender, but he is no footballer. he always looks likely to give away the ball in a dangerous area.

    Willo in the last few games has struggled but I think he can turn it around.

    Williamson every time for me. No nonsense, compliments Colo very well and has a nice little partnership with him. He also has something which Taylor clearly lacks in positional sense, Taylor will often get a rush of blood and think he's a striker, you cant have a defender standing in the opposition penalty area when you're not on the ball, it's crazy.

  9. Yeah but Williamson's passing is awful and he gives away alot of needless throwins and corners. Taylor is a no nonesense defender in the right way. Williamson cannot make simple passes, loses his bottle and smacks it out. I'm not a fan of over playing at the back, but Williamson's play sometimes is laughable. Taylor's passing is better, he's got better pace and agility, and never looks like losing the ball whilst in possession like Williamson does all the time. Williamson is either over plays the ball and gets himself into a stick, or smacks it out when there is a simple pass available.

    I'm not saying it should be a long term change, but i think with the defensive shambles of the last month or so, Taylor deserves a chance. If ****in Campbell gets a game, Taylor deserves atleast a chance to prove he's better than our other options. People may say it's not worth taking the risk of changing the line up for a vital game like Wolves, but we cannot afford another shower of **** like Stoke, Everton and Bolton.
