Matt Taylor Bristol Rovers

[mona]

He likes to score goals.
Like Scott Hogan.

But can he score them in the Championship week in and week out? The Championship is a very different beast to League Two.

Besides, the transfer window has closed.

So did CMS in a lower league the skill is calculating which one could make the step up as Peterborough have done successfully a few times.

Lots of rovers fans I've spoken to love him but are open about the fact that he needs 4 or 5 chances to get a goal. Fine at that level but would be surprised if he was championship material. Hogan isn't that much of a surprise, he was being linked with premier league clubs recently in the transfer window.

We can look but we cannot buy

We have four months to rue not having enough quality and pace up front, not that I think a League Two striker would have been likely to improve us.

That's what people said about Christiano Ronaldo when he started out in league two with Grimsby Town. Look how that one panned out.

Look how Baldock and CMS panned out and they were both top scorers in League One. Really pleased the club didn't go down that road again for a marquee signing this season.

Ronaldo........at Grimsby......

 

[Durlston]

There was a long chat on the Football League show about Grimsby's Omar Bogle and how he turned down a move to a big club but wanted to remain at Grimsby, working his way up the football league. What a refreshing attitude rather than joining a mediocre Premier League side, get loaned out and earning over-the-top wages. Certainly one to keep an eye on.

Or look but can't touch. Frustration, as usual.

Ronaldo........at Grimsby......[emoji38]ol:

Everyone has to start somewhere, look at Messi, he made it to the top despite his rocky youth career at Leigh Genesis.

Very true. Not a lot of people know that.

CMS had to work his butt off up front on his own. Under Hughton he'd have got a lot more goals. Quicker back to front and a strike partner.

They're not students of the game like us. More fool them I say.

[DJ NOBO]

Matt Taylor is not the forward we're looking for. I can assure you of that.

I think that is fair comment tbh. He got worse the longer he was here but did start out ok

Of course you can't sign quality strikers from the lower divisions. NSC is the fount of all wisdom of course. Callum Wilson, Andre Gray, Jamie Vardy. All shit and useless.

I think the point is that the Albion can't find them not that they are not out there.
