Neil Taylor admits that life in the Premier League means that every mistake will get scrutinised

Taylor saidย โ€œThatโ€™s the Premier League, youโ€™re going to get scrutinised

โ€œIf you play at the back or in goal youโ€™re more than likely only going to get mentioned if you have a bad game.

โ€œIf you get through unscathed and not highlighted it means youโ€™ve done well as a backline and defended well as a team.

โ€œItโ€™s peopleโ€™s jobs to analyse and pick out people, highlight things that went wrong and, against Wolves, we conceded two goals in the last eight minutes.

โ€œSo thatโ€™s going to get scrutinised. Thatโ€™s part of it all. And it doesnโ€™t bother us, we analyse the games ourselves and are more critical than anyone.

โ€œIf we work on what went wrong thatโ€™s the main thing.

โ€œWe all like it if the strikers and wingers get the plaudits because it means weโ€™ve done our job, theyโ€™ve done theirs and if weโ€™ve got Premier football next year because of that then weโ€™ll be more than happy.

โ€œAfter defeat at Norwich it was a massive improvement, and it had to be because the performance at Norwich wasnโ€™t good enough,โ€ reflected Taylor.

โ€œWhen you step back and look at things it was a really good away performance and itโ€™s something we can build on.

โ€œWe are back on home turf this week and hopefully we can do well. Whether you win, lose or draw you have to move on as the next game is completely different.โ€
