Big Sam is looking to add an experienced central defender alongside Steven Taylor. Great move considering Taylor is their best defender and there is no clear central defensive pairing in Newcastle. A strong central defensive pairing is the basis to make a strong team. So, we say Big Sam is doing well at identifying areas that needs dire improvement. Here was what he had to say,
"I don't want to put too much pressure on Steven Taylor. He has been labelled a hero or saviour by the fans because of his passion for Newcastle United and the commitment in his play,"
"But he is still a raw defender with huge potential and great promise, and while he is not quite there yet, he is still a great asset to this football club. I am looking to bring in central defenders with experience to play alongside Taylor to help him improve."
"It's not for him to be the main man, but we need to bring someone in to talk to him and bring him on and knock one or two rough edges off. Steven Taylor has great potential, and when people talk of him as a future England centre-half, I say, 'Perhaps, yes'."
