Quite embarrassing the way we turn on our players on here.
A poor result and out they come , it was a draw we should have won.
Awwww poor wee millionaires getting criticised for under performing at work.

Tav has been rotten but he’s not the only one . Borna miles off it aswell but it’s only tav who gets peltersBecause he was rotten... Because he has been rotten all season. Name a game were he was good this season.. McGregor is getting stick, as is Morelos. And rightly so.
If that wee shite Devlin had been playing for us he'd have been sent off in the first half.Take his Lamborghini away from him, and Borna’s bloody McLaren too. That wee shite Devlin did more for his team than both of them today.
You see the Tav luvvers on here always want to complain about the Tav bashers do they never ask themselves why any Rangers fan would want to complain about any player just for the sake of it, a blind man could see he is not the same player.I was going to create a thread on this topic but did not want to be accused of the usual tav bashing, he was not the worst player today however it's becoming more and more clear to me Patterson is the better option. Reasons why:
Tav looks to me like he either has lost a yard of pace or he is not as sharp as he was last season. In previous seasons he would take on the full back for pace and beat him. I've hardly seen this since prior to his injury last season. In the majority of games I've seen Patterson he will continue to drive at the opposite full back.
Our tactics rely on the full backs providing the creativity from the sides, he (tav) has been lacking in this department this season also. Often hitting the first man or his cross goes too long.
We have a youngster who we can all see is a special talent impacting games more than tav at the moment.He is not only doing it at club level (when given a chance) but at international level also.
Tin hat on but for me Patterson should be starting the next few games...
He is by far the weakest player in the team.Rangers vs Hearts in the main stand. From where I was sitting he looked like the worst player on the pitch today.

Correct, but when he have a now 20 year old sitting on the bench who is on current form miles ahead of him you can see why people get upset.Tav has been rotten but he’s not the only one
Everyone knows what Robertson does. He took it to the limit to push his team on. See any of our pampered, over-rewarded ‘stars’ putting half as much effort in?If that wee shite Devlin had been playing for us he'd have been sent off in the first half.
Embarrassing response as wellAwwww poor wee millionaires getting criticised for under performing at work.

Teams know the way we play,they block our full backs from getting into dangerous areas,it's up to us to find other ways of creating chances which we did today but unfortunately Morelos had one of those days.There was a pattern especially in the first half. The ball would go right and Tav would carry it forward at pace and then the right side was closed down. It left the left fairly open but we didn;t seem to want to exploit that. It seems that opponents have learned we are string on the right so close that part of the park down. We don't seem to be able to exploit the space that leaves on the left. Just my own layman's obsevations
Most assists this season I am pretty sureHe's been poor all season, one goal aside, 90% of his crosses hit an opposition player.
Patterson the better player by a distance on this seasons form and it should be his shirt to lose.
Constructive.Awwww poor wee millionaires getting criticised for under performing at work.

It doesn't help that Barasic won't take a man on or take it to the bye line when he's got plenty of space. The usual look up and pump it in no matter what's on is pathetic.There was a pattern especially in the first half.

But the number of posts basically blaming him for the Hearts goal because he conceded a free kick 2 minutes before it is quite scary. The goal was 100% the fault of our goalkeeper, nobody else.
Constructive.
Tavernier was poor today, I'm not defending his overall performance.
But the number of posts basically blaming him for the Hearts goal because he conceded a free kick 2 minutes before it is quite scary. The goal was 100% the fault of our goalkeeper, nobody else. It was a basic bread and butter cross any keeper should deal with and he made an absolute mess of it
Not excusing Tavernier from playing badly, and it's a genuine debate who should play right back. But putting any blame on him for their goal is stretching things way too far.
Disagree, Balogun was the best defender. Tavernier gives away a stupid free kick, which leads to the corner and their goal.Did he flap at a cross meaning we conceded a goal?
Did he miss several sitters to secure the points?
He was the best of the defenders today,not a high bar admittedly.
Maybe because of the number of times he saved us even today a few times when Hearts were through on goal.
Big mistake for the goal but we lost as Morelos could not convert the many chances he had.
I agree, Tav isn't the dynamic full back we need for whatever reason. Didn't get beyond his opposite number once today and his crossing was shite. Get Patterson in, so much more energy.Seemed to be 2nd to every ball, easily out muscled and skinned multiple times and absolutely woeful going forward. Looked nothing like himself in all honesty. If I was Nathan Patterson I'd be disappointed not to be in the team for Thursday after a performance like that from Tav.
In hindsight we should have sold Tav and Goldson the day after 55. They look like they have settled for being one time champions.I can see this being tavs last season here, him and Goldson will be away. Honestly wouldn’t be surprised to see aribo and kamara leave too next summer
I get the feeling they stuck around for champions league football and with tht out the window they are looking elsewhereIn hindsight we should have sold Tav and Goldson the day after 55. They look like they have settled for being one time champions.
To give away that free kick was criminal. I’m still raging about it now.The goal came from a corner just after Tav conceded a needless free kick.
The linesman’s flag saved him on a couple of occasions.
He was getting a fair bit of stick from Copland Road supporters as well and I agree he is way off standards he set last seasonRangers vs Hearts in the main stand. From where I was sitting he looked like the worst player on the pitch today.
How many?Be honest he was rotten.Crosses flying out the other end of the pitch
Both him and Borna haven't been great and the way we play its reliant on the fullbacks playing well and there not and it's having a knock on affect. I would start Patterson on Thursday and every game there after.Tav has been rotten but he’s not the only one
Few season ago when he was playing c rap it was said he was missing Daniel Candeias. He shouldn't need a baby sitter.Tavernier is missing Ryan Jack to cover him. Tavernier is not the root cause of our problems. It's the lack of familiarity in our midfield imo
Balogun came out 2nd half with slippers on,he was all over the place after a good first half.Disagree, Balogun was the best defender. Tavernier gives away a stupid free kick, which leads to the corner and their goal.
Do you think it is coincidence we lose most goals from the right flank? That's where most teams target and get joy from.
Fair pointFew season ago when he was playing c rap it was said he was missing Daniel Candeias. He shouldn't need a baby sitter.
Bang on mate like Kent there has been something not right since the start. I wish the media guys would ask these questions.I don't think Tav has looked particularly fit all season to be honest.
He doesn't seem to be getting up and down the park like he was last season.
