Ross-Gazza genius 1,902 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 He's been really poor this season and part of it is playing Arfield wide as he always ends up playing the majority of the game in the centre and leaving him exposed. However some of the mistakes he's making are basic and it's costing us. Gerrard has dropped katic for less and it's time to drop him imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueKnight87 17,279 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Not one decent delivery and calamity defending costing us a goal. He has needed dropped for a while. No player is untouchable Flanagan should be at RB next game. But I fully expect tav will continue at RB unless suspended or injured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let Flanagan sit on the right and Barisic go on the left..... Tav relies too heavily on workhorses balling him out, Candeias last season and Jack this.... I don't think Barasic is quite there yet in terms of contributing to attacking moves, though he has been much better. Should also be taking set pieces more over Tav imo, the one at the end comes to mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sticking up for him btw. There’s a pattern all right he’s costing us games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

While i have firmly come round to your way of thinking on Tav and his loser mentality... I don't agree that he offers fuck all going forward.... right now he is bang out of form but he has it in hs locker to be very good going forward. He has still contributed some world class crosses this season despite being way off the boil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly it's a myth that tav is the only player that can offer creativity in the side. Yes there are games tav contributes but he is so poor right now he needs dropped in favour of a RB that can defend first and foremost. For me that's Flanagan who is a natural RB even know he's played LB majority for us. Then we can see what happens when tav is dropped and how much we lose going forward without him.
