Taylor and Scannel are absolutely superb footballers -class at this level and we’re lucky to have them.

If you can't see that Taylor is a wonderful hold up striker for this level then the game is wasted on you. He is a huge upgrade on LJL and without breaking the bank there aren't many better strikers in this league.

Though I think we’ll get into the play offs we’re still outsiders for promotion in reality and if we don’t go up and we’re serious about progressing we need to get the likes of Taylor and Scannel retained as they are quality at this level.

I would expect both may have offers from other clubs and at their stage of their careers we’ll have to beat what another club can do to keep them.

Arguably he’s only playing at this level due to his injury record I suspect.

Taylor reminds me of a mix between Livvo and Tony Rees.

Holds the ball up well, can make a quick flick pass that doesn't look like it has just bounced off him, and take the bad tackles in his back from late defenders.

I don't expect 15 goals per season from Taylor,  but McAtee would have fewer were it not for clever passes and lay offs from Taylor.

The ball would return our way far more often if he was not the first receiver in the opposition half.

Not there to do the McAtee harassing role !!

I don't think we would have too much trouble retaining Taylor as I think we are quite convenient for him but if a club down south came in for Scannell, I think he would be off regardless of any offer we make.

Taylor is a brilliant footballer. His flicks and tee ups are a joy to watch. It must be an absolute dream to play off him.

100% agree. I'd go as far to say as he's the best footballing striker we've had in a long time. In the few games I've managed to get to him and Mcatee are almost unplayable at times..

Scannel has played for various clubs since 2012 all in the north probably couldn’t afford to relocated back to the south even if he wanted to.

Scannell, Sousa?  The solution is obvious.  We build a machine like what you would find in the Marvel Comic world that merges the genes, and therefore, traits of both players.   I give  you Scansa.
