five stars 1,621 Posted April 7 Author Share Posted April 7 1 minute ago, Blue72 said: Same sort of comment Liverpool fans make about Alexander Arnold - much of it is just nature of attacking full backs But he's not that player anymore where he's always attacking. He doesn't have the legs to get uo and down the park the way he used to. The first goal was nothing to do with him being too far forward and out of position. crazy bob swollenbaws 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue72 1,102 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 7 minutes ago, MillwallLoyal said: Next season should we move Tav into the right of a midfield 3? This limits his defensive woes but allows for the positives still, assists and goals. Nah think people suggesting this don’t get the set up with RBs and LBs that are attacking.

Genuinely think it’s mentality issue at this point. It’s absolutely mentality, can’t remember what European match it was and goldson was a colossus, Tav has had some outstanding games this year. Something about playing those cunts that just seems to spook them Bobby Hume 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't have the legs to get uo and down the park the way he used to. The first goal was nothing to do with him being too far forward and out of position. His goal and assist record disagrees. He looked slow today but so did half the team out there - fair enough not a great performance but the guy delivers and has done all season.

jamess 3,429 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 2 minutes ago, five stars said: Sterling is ready to take over, we're holding his progress back. Sterling has done well when played further forward. Tav could move further forward if its a problem. My point is that Tav is one of our better players if looked at over a season. Crazy to say he needs moved on.

five stars 1,621 Posted April 7 Author Share Posted April 7 Tav's ok against the wee teams but at a higher level he's not got it anymore. Playing him as a right midfielder or winger is a terrible idea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazy bob swollenbaws 1,868 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 22 minutes ago, Jamie0202 said: Roughly half are penalties. What about the other half that are just as important? Would we have won last week if Tav hadn't scored that volley? Would you have wanted any other player to hit that volley? Much like the boyd arguments of old you seem to assume that we would not replace him with anyone. If the defence of which tav is a major part, could be trusted, we would also be a different proposition up from. Tavs prime role is defending and he is poor at this level.

GA1972 9,589 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Tav v Sterling isn’t the argument for me. We’re wasting Sterling if we use him primarily as a full back IMO Tav was shocking at that first goal but you’ll see that happen 10000 times over the games this weekend and go out for a throw. Even if it hits the man a normal person goes to block that with their left leg and probably goes straight out for a goal kick. Totally freak incident where that cunt leads with his right leg and hits him at exactly the right angle and pace to go just past the keeper That moment lead to him having a bit of a mare until we got the goal and I think his performance improved after Laudrupsleftfoot 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
