    Think we look far better when he is playing instead of Taylor.

    I agree. He just seems more balanced and offers more options. Taylor plays inverted well. But Valle also seems to be able to that plus push up the wing , anticipate and intercept passes and looks to be overall defensively better. Think we enjoy this kid while we can as he has some potential.

    It's not at all reliable, I wouldn't even understand the urgency to recall if they could - there is no depth crisis at FB

    Just watched the game back without the emotion. He was absolutely awful when he came on last night. Gave the ball away continually however, hopefully the coaches point out how he can improve because he does have a good future.

    I know this is tongue in cheek but if I was offered a choice between the two, Tierneys injury record really concerns me.

    He's obviously the far more accomplished player right now. But I'm not as excited about the prospect of a KT return due to the fact he struggles to go a few months without an injury now.

    Excellent. Hopefully we have him for the season at least.

    If I'm being honest I'd say it's prolly about 50% tongue in cheek :) Just can't see past KT, I know about his injury woes but I'm a romanticist not a realist. I just feel it's something that is gonna happen...the auld spidey sense ye know. :50:
