Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 12:44 - Jan 30 with 6660 views | AngelRangelQS | Taylor has far more limitations than Van Arnolt who can also play on the wing. Sam seems to think he can improve him defensively as he did at Sunderland last year, by all accounts. Personally, I think we just want to get Taylor off the books and bring in another attacking option. From a financial perspective we are going to have to duck and dive to bring in more quality and if that means having to use players as undervalued make weights, so be it. | | | |
Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 12:47 - Jan 30 with 6601 views | Jango | Van aanholt can play wing, wing back or full back. He's a very good attacking threat who can take free kicks. There's a reason why a prem team wants him and only a championship team wants Taylor | | | |
Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 12:50 - Jan 30 with 6551 views | E20Jack | Van Aahnolt has scored 7 and assisted 9 in the last 3 seasons....Taylor has scored 1 and assisted 5 in the last 6 (yes six) seasons. Taylors best ever full season for Swansea isnt even equal to Van Aahnolts worst in terms of total performance rating. They are not comoarable and on completely different levels of ability. | |

Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 12:53 - Jan 30 with 6491 views | jasper_T | Not convinced at all by the lesser Ayew, but getting rid of Taylor and getting another wing option is fine by me. | | | |
Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 13:02 - Jan 30 with 6336 views | pencoedjack | As a DEFENDER he has also been part of a defence that has conceded more than us in the last 2 seasons in a side that has finished below us. Anyway we agree to disagree that whoever negotiates Sunderland's transfers is far better than who does the same role at our club. | | | |
Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 13:14 - Jan 30 with 6172 views | Tummer_from_Texas | It would be nice to live in a world where we could sell Neil Taylor to another PL club for £14 million, but unfortunately we live in one where no PL club is quite that stupid at the moment. I'm satisfied living in a world where we can send our surplus left back where he probably belongs - the Championship - while picking up a promising option at wing (which we badly need) for £5 million.

Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 13:15 - Jan 30 with 6151 views | AngelRangelQS | In Allardyce's press conference recently, he acknowledged that PVA had issues with his defending but said that when he worked alongside him at Sunderland and coached him 1 on 1, he felt that there was an improvement and that he could replicate that with Palace. If they can, then they've got themselves a very good full back indeed. The fee is also £10m, rising to £14m for PVA. Taylor you would imagine is valued around the £5-6m mark, assuming a price of £10/£11m for Ayew. I appreciate there is a big difference in price but I'd like to think we wouldn't have sold Taylor to Palace for £5m. The other point worth making is that if Taylor was such a steal, we'd have had other clubs queuing up for him. | | | |
Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 13:15 - Jan 30 with 6145 views | Tummer_from_Texas | Also worth noting - you've got to figure Jordan's brother told him good things about Swansea if he agrees to this deal. | |

Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 13:16 - Jan 30 with 6116 views | LeonWasGod | Agree with that, but I was hoping PC could unearth us an exciting option or two rather than just go along with our usual list of players. But that's me just being unrealistic; I need to remember that our funds are somewhat limited. PC's got a massive job on his hands making us work as a unit, because there's precious little individual talent left in thes squad. | | | |
Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 13:22 - Jan 30 with 6038 views | Morfa_Same | I assume Taylor has a sell-on clause. I hope this isn't an attempt to get around paying it like with Vorm. | | | |
Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 13:23 - Jan 30 with 6026 views | pencoedjack | As I said fella we will have to agree to disagree To me although (we believe him to be shite) I think we are letting him go cheaply | | | |
Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 13:25 - Jan 30 with 5990 views | Swansea93 | At the end of the 2009—10 season, Taylor joined Football League Championship side Swansea City on a free transfer.[3] A fee of £150,000 plus 10% of any future profit was agreed between the two clubs just before entering a professional footballers compensation committee tribunal on 30 September 2010 | |

Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 13:27 - Jan 30 with 5957 views | Highjack | Are you including defensive stats into that? Taylor's always been horse shyte going forward but until recently he was probably far better than van Aanholt defensively. | |

Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 13:30 - Jan 30 with 4051 views | lifelong | I care. Our club has a long history of having Welsh international and locally sourced players in our starting line ups. It's a shame that this is no longer the case. [Post edited 30 Jan 2017 13:44]

Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 13:32 - Jan 30 with 4028 views | somersetsimon | Should be an easy one to get away with. Everyone knows that we only ever buy players for £5M, therefore Ayew is only worth £5M, therefore Taylor is worth nothing. | | | |
Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 13:53 - Jan 30 with 3907 views | Pegojack | Why do I sense another court appearance for the Swans looming over a swap deal and sell on clause? | | | |
Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 13:53 - Jan 30 with 3901 views | Clinton | Any free-kicks or penalties in PVA's total ? | |

Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 13:56 - Jan 30 with 3870 views | AngelRangelQS | I expect there'll be a free kick in there.... why does it make a difference though? | | | |
Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 14:12 - Jan 30 with 3767 views | Borojack | We won't win this one it's pretty clear that Villa value Ayew at about 9 million. We value Taylor at 4 hence the 5 million fee. We will have to pay Wrexham about 400 grand which is only fair. | |

Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 14:23 - Jan 30 with 3691 views | waynekerr55 | More like trading standards for selling sub prime tat... | |

Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 14:46 - Jan 30 with 3577 views | premierjack | I like this signing, ayew must be worth around 9-10 million so the sums add up. He looked good in the PL when I have seen him, we have always played our best with pace out wide, hopefully ayew and narsingh will provide that. Van anholt's fee has absolutely no relevance to what we sell Taylor for, there is a massive difference in quality between the two players. Another CB along with this signing and I think that we have done very well in this window. | | | |
Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 14:52 - Jan 30 with 3520 views | Flashberryjack | PC just on SS1 saying that the Taylor Ayew deal is almost done, and wished Taylor the best in his new challenge. Also said that it's likely that we will see out the season with Center Backs we already have. | |
| |
Taylor + £5m for Ayew agreed on 15:01 - Jan 30 with 3466 views | E20Jack | And Taylor has also been part of the defence which is one of the worst statistically in Premier League history. Van Aanholt is superior to Taylor in both defence and attack. | |
