Max Taylor signs for Dale 17:07 - Aug 2 with 2573 viewsSuddenLad

Initial 12 month contract. Was at Man United until the end of last season.

Welcome, Max. Good signing is this.

I'm glad we've signed him, he looked quality on trial.

Fingers crossed the 'initial one year deal' means we have an option to extend in our favour or it's triggered by a number of appearances because this lad has serious potential.

I thought the same when I saw the one year deal.

Poll: Would you have Keith Hill back?

Spending time in Uniteds youth teams, he is going to have some quality. At least the fans have had the chance to take a look too. Stockdale's impressed.

Been in trials abroad since being released. Slovakia I think, however the trial didn't quite work out. According to a report they were impressed with him though but wanted a player with more experience.

He's been on a quite a life journey at such a young age, suffering from cancer at 18.

I wish him all the best and good luck

Well the centre back area looks a bit better stocked now. Hopefully Jim can concentrate on coaching, with two young new recruits to work with. Plus JK can stand in at a push.
Still plenty of shopping to be done, especially in defence and attack. Thomas would be a start, but that may yet be a compensation job. We will see.
Welcome Max. We have had a decent United recruit in the recent past. If your time here turns out as well as Ollie’s then you will enjoy your time here.

I'm sure there's potential but I haven't been fully convinced by him. Not sure he'll be a first team player to start with. Manager has obviously seen enough to think he can develop him.

Poll: What are we more excited for?

Have you seen all of his appearances?

I only saw him at the AFC Fylde game and thought he looked more than competent.

You mean you STILL haven't worked out why some posts get down-ticked?

No not seen all of them so still open minded. The rotherham game is the one I saw. In the main he looked rash and struggled with the physical side. He did however look assured enough on the ball and made an incredible last ditch block in the second half.

Suppose there's a bit of a difference in quality of opponent in the two games we've seen. Rotherham weren't great though.

I don’t understand why Peter Thomas keeps getting mentioned in the context of the first team. He only turns 17 this month and he’s had extremely limited exposure to first team football. He may well be a bright prospect but there’s no basis for considering him a first team player at this stage.

Whist agreeing with the points you make in principle , which I generally do , i just have a slight misgiving that Thomas , who is a highly rated 2nd year scholar now (as I understand it) and highly rated apparently doesn't appear in the friendlies whilst other 2nd year scholars do , as well as the striker Jesus , who I believe is a 1st year scholar ?/

I'm hoping its just to keep him under the radar before he qualifies to sign a full pro deal , especially as TVOS has confirmed he was involved in the youth team photo call .

Didn’t mention him in context of the first team, but as you mention it I do think he would be likely to get experience travelling with and occasionally getting minutes this season, given the current squad size.
Actually on the podcast the other days ATP asked who would be the club’s top goal scorer. I would have answered A N Other as I hope the top scorer isn’t at the club yet.
But yes I would like Thomas to be signed but not loaned out like some of the other youngsters.
