  • Why is it such a strange thing to say that taylor was better. Yann had a 1 in 3 record, Taylor better than 1 in 2. A striker is a goalscorer. We were half the team without Lyle in 2018 19 and look at the impact it had when he got injured last season.
    So if Taylor has a 1 in 2, and say Vardy has a scoring record of 1 in 3.... Taylor is better than Jamie Vardy?

    This is Lyle's second year in the Championship, has 15-goals in total!!

    Yann scored that many in one season for Bouremouth which got them promoted to the Premier League - He then got 18-goals for Reading, got them to the Play-Off Final, and got 12-goals for Charlton in a single season which almost got us to the Play-Offs

    All that beginning from the same age that Lyle is now - So lets see if he can replicate Yann's scoring at this level?

    If he can then I'll concede the point that Lyle is better than Kermorgant
    Im talking about their time with us, I couldn't care less about either of there records for other teams.  Lyle is a lot more reliant on pace, so I don't think he will have the same longevity, his injury last year lost him a yard or two. 
    Not sure that’s true. Karlan was much quicker than Taylor - it was certainly *his* main weapon. Taylor said he envied Karlan’s pace, although he was no slouch himself. 
  • Lyle coming back to league one would be nowhere near as much a threat as he was, think how unmotivated he’d be on less money and two jumps away from the premiership.  Although as someone mentioned he’d morph into messi against us for sure.
  • Why would he leave Forest? He left for his one chance at a pay packet... unless they pay him off he has no reason to leave.

    Agreed - it’s a job to him- why would anyone move to do more work for half the money .

    Taylor up top with Aneke or Stockley wouldn't work. He needs a poacher playing off of him, like KAG, or Vetokele when he came back into the side in our promotion season.  Would partner Schwartz well though.
  • If Forest made him available for a loan in the summer and Sandgaard was prepared to pay the loan fee and % of his wages, who would be happy to have him back?


    A very interesting question. Our fans would give him dogs abuse (I would -  a first for me towards a Charlton player). Given he thrives off of that he'd probably do well!!


    A definite no from me. Someone has already mentioned their preference for young players hungry to play for Charlton, and that is the sort of player i'd prefer.

    Strikers do more than score.......If I could pick a prime Yann or a prime Lyle....Id be picking Yann every day of the week and twice on Sunday.
  • I'm just sat here in utter shock that there is a debate about who is better between Yann and Taylor.

    Who next, Gary Doherty and Richard Rufus? Ooo that's a tough one.
  • Personally, I’d rather have the girlfriend who cheated on me and gave me crabs back than Taylor back at Charlton.
    I feel your pain!

    It wasn’t painful just unbelievably itchy.

    Danny Green or Scott Wagstaff?

    It’s clearly not that stark .  If Taylor hadn’t done the dirty on us, there’d be a genuine debate, IMO.  Yann wins it but LT would be in the top 5 strikers of my time watching Charlton, with Clive, Hunt, D Bent and YK.  I am not sure our style of football under SCP saw us use YK to the best of his talent but he even adapted to that and he was amazing at Bournemouth and Reading.

    And no doubt Taylor is an absolute prick !
