LegendofCoop 17,427 Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 It's odd. He was brilliant in flashes, but then looked......'ordinary' at times. (I'll get pelters for that, but that's how it looked. I think he's not really had a proper pre-season by the looks of things. I said at the weekend....I have a feeling if he scores one for us he will go on and score loads. Hopefully tonight is the spark.

Also didn't hide or let the fact he was not getting much joy down the flank get to him. Superb mentality for a 20 year old in that kind of atmosphere. That's actually a great point. How many players have we seen fold completely when played out of position. He could easily have gone that way, but he's showing great character.

mitre_mouldmaster 21,509 Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Seriously impressed with the lad. He does shit you just don't see coming. Hopefully our players soon start expecting it! Aribo was a huge loss for us, but this lad has the potential to mitigate it completely. graeme_4 and Amokachi 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaaRFC 4,788 Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Has technique, vision and composure in spades. Got to remember he’s very young and has barely played top flight football. Rekon he’ll only get better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made a belter of a last minute block in I think the first half, scored the first and heavily involved in the equaliser. Thought he was really good but would have to see it again.

Tavs biggest contribution was being on his teammates case most of the game. He wasn't afraid to let people know what wasn't acceptable and he found his voice. Great to see.

OrangeRab 2,837 Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Kent Morelos with Tillman in behind central will be a really great attack. We still need to find a right wing solution.
