Tav - so I'll ask it again...

I think Tav is really good at playing the position he is in at the moment.

Definitely not in form with regards to attacking flair, shots and passing... but in the right position- often available for link up play - much better at defending/tracking runners than he is given credit for.

One of the main reasons Taylor has immediately fit in.

Really?

Plus point... Runs around. A lot.

Outside of this...

10 mins passes out of play blames Taylor

22 mins Tav weak as **** shot in middle of goal. Easily saved.

48th min weak as **** loses ball on edge of box meaning break down in attack.

50 terrible pass gives ball away breaking down another attack

65 Tav messss up and nearly allows Forest a free chance

80 min sent for a hot dog by the right winger

(that was just a few of the things I noted)

Dearie me.

File under “anonymous poster so determined to make his point despite looking like an absolute **** that he continues to keep digging and looks like an even bigger ****”.

Well done Chris. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
 
Tav played very well today.

It seems that some are only happy to post about him when he's not played so well

Chris, I’m genuinely not being a d1ck here, or being critical of you just for the sake of it. These are genuine questions and points.

Did you actually make notes? I.e on paper or your phone?

If so, is it personal, I.e you’ve had a personal issue with him at some point etc?

Lastly, look at any midfielder in the world, even the top ones and you’ll see they don’t have perfect games, they all make the odd poor pass, have the odd weak shot, get taken on, get caught in possession etc.

I appreciate your view on Tav isn’t just based on today’s game alone.

I dont think you can appreciate tavs performance properly today unless you were there, off the ball he was everywhere and is the most energetic player in the team. The system falters without him in it. He isn't getting constant 90mins for nothing.

Well said Tom. The off the ball work gets overlooked.
 
Forest break on us, Howson and Crooks are left behind. It's 5 on 3. Who's sprinting across from the left to cover, to pressure the man on the ball? Yeah Tav, and that pressure causes the Forest player into a ball behind everyone and straight out of play. He's a key part of the team.

Not particular but I did decide to pay particular attention to his performance seeing as I'm being told I'm so wrong about him so I did make a mental note of a few things that I saw.

My issue is that I just don't see why everyone thinks so highly of a player that gives a lot of effort... This should be a a prerequisite of any footballer.

This is not based on one game or even ten games but a whole years worth of games. He has offered precious little for that full period.

I just think we can do a lot better and I'm hoping Payero can come in and give us what we're missing and that we can also get a striker that is a greedy goalscorer (like Gayle really)

I have been disappointed with Tavernier this season and critical of him, but credit where it is due he had a good game today.

The whole team played well today - everyone.
Great performance. If you are critical after today then you need to give your head a shake.

I think he’s shaking something else atm tbh…..
