Neil Taylor comments 22:31 - Jul 24 with 5758 views | Swansea93 | “I got to the Summer after the Euros, I looked at it and I was going back to Swansea, I’ve been honest about it before, with Guidolin I don’t think it quite worked with me and him. “The way the club was going with Swansea, it hurt a lot of us because of the style of play that had gone completely.” “That was our identity really and we saw a lot of change. With Laudrup, Monks, Guidolin and Bob Bradley — there was a lot of in’s and out’s and it didn’t feel like the same club anymore. I guarantee you the fans think the same thing.” “It’s the natural process of football, I think it happens to every single team. Nothing lasts forever.” “So I got to after that Summer and we were on such a high it was ridiculous. I was going back to Swansea and I had that feeling that I’d never had before and it was just deflated. I was thinking ‘I hope we do good things this season’ but at the time I don’t think we knew Guidolin. I think Brendan Rodgers was linked with coming back and we were all like ‘this could be brilliant’ but it didn’t happen in the end.” “I’d been to Aston Villa’s training ground and I thought ‘wow this is what a proper football club looks like’, this is how a football club operates. — Neil Taylor | |

Quite. And his shocking red card tackle against Ireland wasn't even his worst moment of the qualifying campaign. That equalising goal at home to Georgia was entirely the result of utterly lazy defending. If you look at the replays as he's tracking back into the box he checks his shoulder and already sees that he's goalside of the player, so he is fully aware the player is there a yard or two behind him. But then he makes ZERO effort to contest the cross when it's played deep into the box, and has the nerve to wave his arms in the air protesting at the linesman. That was 2 points dropped at home and Wales were actually lucky to hold on for a draw as the momentum of the game shifted entirely the other way. | | | |

Yes. Plus more importantly he nearly screwed our promotion up with that red card at Forest. He is still right though. | | | |
