I genuinely think you and most Rangers fans are blinded by Tavernier.

For example, he is directly at fault for two goals today, the first shared with Balogun, and not for the first time. Carrying the ball forward means hee haw for a fullback when he's shipped 2 goals.

He played above himself last season and rightly won player of the year, but he's back to his usual level this season, which is average.

IMO he's not even the best right back at Rangers, never mind the league.

You'll scoff at this, as most Rangers fans do, but this season he's no better than Ralston. Their numbers in terms of goal involvement are similar (and Ralston doesn't take set pieces) and they both give goals away at the back.

That's not me saying Ralston is great, just that this season so far Tavernier has been no better, which pretty much every non Rangers fan can see, but Rangers fans can't.

enjoy yer night mate

Tavernier is poor defensively.  The fact that Rangers under Gerrard could score a ton of goals masked his weaknesses.
