Levein's Unintentional funny :D

OS

City Land Arsenal 'Keeper

Leicester City have today completed the signing of

Arsenal goalkeeper Stuart Taylor for a one-month

loan period.

The 23-year-old shot stopper, who faced the Foxes

reserves when turning out for the Gunners at

Barnet FC on Monday night, goes straight into the

Leicester squad to face Championship leaders Wigan

Athletic at the JJB Stadium on Saturday.

Taylor is a product of the Arsenal youth system

and made 13 first team appearances during the

2002-03 campaign.

The former England under 21 'keeper has spent time

on loan with Bristol Rovers, Crystal Palace and

Peterborough in the past and is currently looking

to push for a place in the Arsenal first team

squad after missing most of last season with a

shoulder injury.

Taylor arrives at the Walkers Stadium following

the news that Ian Walker will be out for at least

the next two months with a knee injury.

Foxes boss Craig Levein said: "Stuart will be

joining us initially on loan for a month. I think

everybody knows that we have been very thin on the

ground in regards to the goalkeeping position in

recent weeks. "He comes straight into the squad for the game

against Wigan on Saturday, although whether he

starts or not is a different thing.

"The one-month period gives us the opportunity to

look at Stuart and gives him the chance to find

out whether he is comfortable here. I thought that

was sensible and it solves our crisis if you like.

"He is a young up and coming goalkeeper and I have

watched him and found out a lot about him. He is

hungary and desperate for first team action. This

is a good opportunity for him."

Can we read anything into this second statement :rolleyes:

My source was MB. It says on the OS that ".. he (Taylor) is hungary". Well if he is a country in Eastern Europe he will have no problem blocking up his goal. ;)

Brilliant news, I would like to think I influenced this decision with my Realistic Targets thread. If Levein signs another player off there soon i'll know for sure, rumour has it i'll soon be approached to be chief scout.

"He is a young up and coming goalkeeper and I have watched him and found out a lot about him. He is hungry and desperate for first team action. This is a good opportunity for him."

SPOT ON IMHO!

If that was MA, he would have probably got him til the end of the season and then realised that both parties were not suited to each other a month later.

Micky Adams?

He wouldnt of signed him, he aint over 30 is he?

If MA was still here, he'd be persuading Peter Shilton to play for us.

The January transfer window doesn't apply to clubs outside the Premiership!

So I doubt that ;)

Read the article Ash and you might see the reason we only have him for a month ;)

Naw, it only applies to Prem clubs buying people I believe, not selling them!

Great signing, we need a good keeper until Walker is back and Taylor is a good keeper.

Lets hope he does well and he joins us permantley :)

So Walker is on his way out then whether or not Taylor is his final replacement. I shall be sorry to see him go, but all good things must come to an end. Thanks Ian. :w00t: :rolleyes::D:) B) ;):thumbup:

lets hope we can make this permanent, we could have a goal keeper for the next decade here and we may actually get some money for Walker to spend on a new midfielder.
