Taylor: Back to full fitness

The 26-year-old has missed Wanderers' last three Premier League matches with a broken toe but took a place on the bench last weekend and is now ready for a full return.

Taylor told the club's official website: "I want to play and I'm sure that's the case for everybody who is in the team.

"It's not up to me to pick the team, it's up to the manager so whatever he chooses to do is his prerogative.

"It was nice to be on the bench on Saturday. Obviously it was disappointing not to get on, but I feel fine and now I've got to try and force myself back into the team."
