People want to drop Tav because he’s a loser but can see us winning things with Candeias as right winger Pretty sure that's his first goals tbf. For the record I don't agree that Tavernier misses him or that he should be brought back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

See Worrell from last season Very true mate. That's the double standard that annoys me with tav and the management. Barisic would easily be dropped if he make the same mistakes. Tav will no doubt start vs porto. If he drops another calamity at the back. There is no excuse for not dropping him outside of pure favouritism by the management.

Theres no middle ground as his form is crap, his leadership is anonymous, he contributed nothing, and again cost us goals and points. For a defender, that's simply unacceptable. We need a scapegoat?

Being captain isn’t an issue but making you undropabble due to it is. Everyone makes mistakes and he’s had far too many this season. People bringing up his assists to the debate is irrelevant as continually costing us games as a defender outweighs that. Who you playing instead ? Bearing in mind our centre mids contribution to games in an attacking sense is constantly playing it to tav to swing it into the box , you play flanno who I like as a defender , the centre mids will get it straight back , if our midfield start creating I’m all for tav having a spell out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That works two ways though too. If the team knows Tavernier is there they’ll use him but obviously if someone who isn’t as attacking as him is being used the midfield would play a different way. Play Kent on the right and you wouldn’t need an overlapping full back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueteeth 2,185 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Candeias wanted to leave because he wasn’t given any first team guarantees. It’s not like we kicked him out, however, if we have given the likes of Ojo starting place guarantees then it’s a bit ludicrous that we did that with him and didn’t make Candeias feel like he’d more than likely start most games. Said at the start we’d miss Candeias while others took the piss, but even with him blowing hot and cold he often came up with crucial assists and goals in difficult games. I still think we should have tried to replace Candeias with a better player but to not replace him was crazy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time we have a negative result there has to be a scapegoat on RM -- FFS Airbo and Ojo getting t tight in other posts. Happens all the time. Also expecting a thread on how we should bring back Loan Player X cause he could be a huge plus - the two things are normally coupled. Tav has not been as effective this season for whatever reason though not sure dropping hm is the answer . However to say ' leadership is anonymous' is unless you are on the pitch just speculation.

Even on his off days he ran up and down the wing all game long. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So when we drop points should we not discuss and criticise those at fault? So a player that doesn't fulfil his role as a defender, that fails in his strength which is going forward, and who again costs us a goal and subsequent points should retain his jersey? In itself that's appalling let alone the impact for those who could play but still dont get a game. A leader would have at least imo led by example in demanding more of those underperforming and bringing more effort and intensity to the game even if personally playing poorly. It didnt happen, its not in his locker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really is mate. His defensive lapses aside which should be enough, the one thing he could hold up as why he continues to play has gone as well. You won’t solve this by hoping he suddenly plays through it, he needs to know he can be benched Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyhrfc 2,242 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Needs to be some back to basics work for Tav. Contributes a lot going forward but a howler today on the back of a howler against Young Boys. Perhaps some under 6 coaching about “what to do with the ball when it is in a dangerous position” would help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
