Kenneth Taylor: FM22 Wonderkid Review
Taylor is one of the best Dutch wonderkids in Football Manager 2022. He is a very well rounded midfielder who does not have many weaknesses.
In the auto generated save, Taylor has taken a few seasons to break into the Ajax side. However, once he got his chance, he took them with both hands and had given some exceptional performances over the seasons. In his best season at the club, Taylor had provided an incredible 15 assists in the league alone. A move to the Premier League via West Ham did not work out too well for Taylor with him struggling to replicate his performances with Ajax. Man City have bought the player in the final season of the auto save, realizing his potential and what he could bring to the table.
His average ratings in the auto save have been steady and good throughout. Under a human manager, Taylor can become an elite midfielder in the game and an assist machine.
