Adam Taggart

[ChesterTheTabby]

Really excited to see this lad when he finally recovers from his injury! Anyone know much about him from his days Down Under with the Newcastle Jets?

He's a pure finisher. Lots of pace, lots of energy and if given an opportunity - will score.

However, it's certainly a step up in quality; once he's back to full fitness it's probably best to use him in the same manner as Dembele, in and out; don't overload him with pressure. Give him tasters. I think someone described him as similar to Carlos Tevez in terms of that never stop running playing style - if he's even half as good, we've got a player!

Sounds like a game changer to me! A signing most people seem to have let slip under the radar. Hope Magoo gives him a proper shot.

I am glad we have Adam Taggart, and I am looking forward to seeing him play before I die of old age. One small question, is it me, or do Fulham appear to be in the habit or signing players lately who are either injured or just not fit. What has happened to these stringent medical see use to have, or is the new policy just to confirm there is a heart beat. Just thought I would enquire.

Is he as ugly as Tevez?

Mate who is an Aussie said he is a hard little bugger and a class act... However Aussie football isn't exactly the best

Has a great attitude.  Knows how to score and is also a good trainer.  Will take anything Felix dishes out.

Here is a good article which sums up Taggart's situation pretty well. Whenever I watched him play he was always hungry, detemeined and never shy to have a crack at goal. Big expectations of him now as Australia doesn't have many young stars playing in top leagues in Europe.

Is he fit ? If not when is he expected to be. 049:gif

watched him at crawley, impressed me loads, surprised me even. once he gets used to football here, i think he will be a real asset.

Don't know anything about the guy but I do know that we are short of height up front and he's even shorter than McCormack and of slender build.  This could be a problem.

Michael Owen, George Best, Puskas, Ivor, Messi, Tevez, Suarez etc did not their lack of height stop them being prolific scorers.
