Bearsden bear 2,376 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Im a huge Tav fan. That said no-one is undroppable. I backed him after young boys but another blunder yesterday should mean a spell on the bench imo. Lets see if Flanno or Polster can add a bit of security to that area. We might lose a bit going forward but thats 3 goals in 2 games hes sold now and maybe taking him out the firing-line will help him in the long run.

There are full backs who are a lot worse than him that get a game every week. If Kenny McLean is good enough to play in the Premier League then Tav, despite his deficiencies, is too. Kenny McLean is a poor example here. He's a Championship player, playing for a Championship team who are making a short visit to the top flight. I'm not sure there's any fullbacks down in that league at the moment even close to being as bad as Tavernier (on this season's form) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no doubt you are right, but I don't care about other managers to be honest, all I care about is winning 55 and if Stevie fucks it up because he has favourites that play when they are in poor form and it stops us winning games then he is being rather stupid IMO.

TMB 14,167 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I’ve been a big supporter of Tavernier on here over the years, still am, but I agree we need another option. We have Barisic and Flanagan who can play at LB. with Halliday out of contract at the end of the season maybe January is a good time to bring in another RB to compete with Tavernier. He plays too many games for us anyway and could benefit from rotation just like anyone else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenoz 30,836 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I backed him after his mistake last year against the scum, I didn't after YB's and yesterday's mistake had me raging because it is now Gerrard's fault. It's Flanagan or Polster for me on Thursday. The message has to be sent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably would. He's just a poor example to use to justify Tavernier being able to play in the Premier League when he's probably only going to experience it for one season himself.

GersInCanada 7,775 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Tav is our captain and yes he has not hit the form we expect from him this season. Same applys to Arfield and Ojo. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might only play there for one season but so far he’s showing that he can do a job in that league (John McGinn is too who was another player that everybody on here said was shite for years) and that you don’t have to be half as good to play in that league as people on here make out that you have to be.

superallysbears 7,582 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Be astonished if he's dropped for Thursday, maybe change the captain and give him something to think about, let him concentrate on himself and getting into some better form.

Let's be honest. He's obviously not shite and the reason most on here were saying he was is mainly down to him being a tarrier. If Norwich go down this season they'll take McLean with them. If Villa go down other clubs in that league will be all over McGinn. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIRB_72 4,000 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I really don't see how being captain allowed him to mistime that header against Hearts or miss the interception against Young Boys. His general performances haven't been what they were last year so far and it is down to too many games in my opinion. He's played over 120 games in the last 2 1/2 years and has had no competition. Combine potentially to much football with nobody pushing him then we get what we have got so far. Say there are no outgoings in January then my first signing would be a right back who can be trusted or with potential to takes Tav's place when he needs a rest and to push him when he isn't playing well.
