Panel to rule on Taylor

All depressing as ****, my hopes for the season fall every day.

 

Haha it's grim as **** if you look at it like that but at the end of the day we've already signed Cabaye, Ba and Marveaux while HBA and Gosling are coming back. Plenty to be optimistic about

 

Swansea seem desperate to keep taylor, im sure all this is making him very unsettled. Im not to bothered about taylor though im more worried that we keep missing out on strikers, whats vagnor love up to these days? I would even mind jo from city tbh if th price was right

 

I wouldnt. He's scored 3 goals in 23 games this season. Never thought i'd say it, but Shola's better than him.

 

He's scored?! I always view them bringing him on as a way of letting the other team have a chance for a bit...it's like saying, "well that's enough goals for today"

 

If the price was right? I wouldn't even offer them a packet of peanuts for him. We're past the days of taking poor players from big teams and paying them wages for being ****e. I would prefer someone of better quality than Jo.

 

Jo's a good player good feet strength etc he moved to city and was initially impressive since then he has been loaned out here there and everywhere and hasnt had time to settle, in russia he was quality and i knoww the leagues are diffrent but my point is i think he would be cheap and if he was settled here he could be a quality signing, we are never going to sign great players because better clubs are likely to intrested, we only got ben arfa because no other lcub would touch him cause of his attitude but until he was injured it looked as if that risk paid off, why not with jo?

 

Please no, the guy is shocking, how Man City paid 19 million for him I will quite frankly never know.

 

a favour to the russian mafia?

 

Wouldn't surprise this was when Shinawatra was chairman though, so before their big takeover.
