Someone else seems to think Taylor is rubbish..
Thanks to The Real Corky for the guest blog from Blades v Reading :-
"The Corky snr jinx seems to have disappeared with the blades 3-0 drumming of Reading .
United played some fairly good approach work in the first half and the defence appeared to be OK (apart from Taylor who is rubbish). As I have witnessed before though the blades could not convert some of the better chances but put one goal in from a ball bobbling about in the area which Fortune hit in and a strong cross from Walker that the Reading keeper let slip through his hands for Cresswell to nod in. Did I mention that Taylor was rubbish? Well at 1-0 Bunn saved a penalty and to his credit Taylor stopped a certain goal with a well timed tackle. This tackle however was not good enough in Blackwell’s eyes as he substituted Taylor for Stewart at the start of the second half. (Wish we could get Naughton back on loan with Walker ).
The second half was I think a bit boring (not like me to criticise) and most of the time was taken up with corners for Reading . However some good work between Quinn and Ward finished with Ward scoring but Morgan kicked the ball in from 2 inches and ran over to Ward and indicated that he was going to claim it.
The result was a good one but there still seems a lot to be desired from a footballing point of view. The Blades need to improve in 3 areas - 1) control of the ball 2) passing the ball and 3)shooting accurately. They do however practice heading quite a lot during the game and it looks as though keepy uppy is a regular training ground exercise.
We have now sneaked back into the playoff places and with a good run should lose again at Wembley in the playoff final."
