Patterson v Tav
Young pretender versus the 55th title winning captain.
It's very difficult to compare their careers as Patterson's is still in its infancy.
We all know he's highly rated by the management.
But is he ready to make the RB his own?
His one and only appearance in the 2019/ 2020 season for the first team was a 13 minute cameo appearance in the EL against Leverkusen ( though this game was played in August during the 2020/ 2021 season ) .
Last season he made 14 appearances in all competitions, scoring 2 goals but creating no assists.
Tav on the other hand has played 10 games this season in all competitions, scoring 1 goal but has created 4 assists for others. And he's apparently been "rubbish" all season.
In the 2020/ 2021 season, Tav scored 19 goals and created 16 assists.
In the 2019/ 2020 season, Tav scored 3 goals and created 15 assists.
In the 2018/ 2019 season, Tav scored 17 goals and created 20 assists.
In the 2017/ 2018 season, Tav scored 9 goals and created 9 assists.
In the 2016/ 2017 season, Tav scored 2 goals and created 7 assists.
In the 2015/ 2016 season, Tav scored 15 goals and created 23 assists.
Penalty conversion of 83%.
Consistent figures that Patterson has to aspire to and which you don't just take out the team for no good reason other than we have a wonderful young talent on our hands.
Balogun has also already put a better shift in at RB than both players this season combined - in the 1-0 defeat of Celtic.
I've no doubt that Patterson will make the RB his own but guaranteeing him game time or first pick will not stop him being tempted by the EPL.
There is riches too be had for both club and Patterson in that scenario.

I honestly think Patterson is the better defender, but I think Tav is the better all round player! But Patterson is young and and hopefully if he stays injury free will only improve.

The stats you haven't showing is how many goals has Tav cost over the years?

May I add that it's nice to know that I Don't mind either playing 👍.

Not as many as he's scored and created sweep, I'm surprised you never mentioned how many were penalties? Always a glass half empty guy.

That's subjective Sweep1, on how you class who's fault each goal conceded is?
Was it the person who gave the ball away?
Was it the midfielder not covering a runner?
Was it the midfielder not covering for Tav as he breaks forward in his wing back duties?
Was it the CH not coming across?
Or do you think every goal conceded down the left is the sole responsibility of the RB only?

No I'm talking about all the times it's clearly his fault. I'd say he's top of the list I'm the current squad.

Correct MPH everyone always looks at Tav and where he is when we concede but we went in run of clean sheets the likes we’ve not seen in our History and Tav was a part of that 👍🏻! Young Patterson isn’t ready to be 1st choice yet maybe by the end of the season or the following it’ll be his Time he’s a great great prospect! but Tav is Phenomenal for me!

Sweep is correct as usual. Tav was directly responsible for 25% of all goals we lost in the league last season - 4 defenders take equal share.

Remind me Sweep, how many goals did our defence lose last season (broke all records for goals against) .

I would rather play Patterson he's younger and wouldn't want to risk him going to another club, would rather cash in on Tav if had choice.

Sweep1,tav's assists and goals way outweighs his defensive mistakes simple as that and i totally agree with MPH 👍 Tav is the glasgow rangers no.1 right back in my eyes at the moment, as well as our management team. His benefit to our team is superb for a right back with numbers even the greatest ranger ever mr john greig described as incredible. We can't and definitely shouldn't drop tav out the team because patterson is a good young full back, absolutely no danger!

If we're going down that route sweep then we're back to primary school football. Every goal conceded is then the keepers fault for not making the save?

Call me immature! But I was hoping to see sooty and sweep have a wee go at each other over this? Would make my sad day 🤣🤣🤣🤦‍♂️.

I have to agree with sweep how many goals has he cost us also assists are a funny because you could pass a ball 2 yards then the boy could score a 25 yard screamer and that’s classed as an assist.

Also I boy could dribble by 5 players pass it then the boy lays on for someone else to score and the boy that’s laid on gets the assist.

So assists are subjective as well IMO

I ain’t saying Tav hasn’t done well for us but it’s time for Patterson to get more game time.

Lastly as I have said since day one he was made captain that he is never a captain of rangers in my opinion.

Just stick it out, ignore the noise, don’t like someone reply, ignore.

Stormtrooper as you should know by the detail attention you always pay my posts, i praise a helluva lot of our first team and just feel tav is a whipping boy on here by a good few of you 🤔.

You still going on about Steve Davis?


23.) 23 Sep 2021

John25 I would've loved Veerman in to eventually replace Davis.


24.) 23 Sep 2021

KJ, last season we had the best defensive record ever - how many of the very very few goals we conceded would you blame Tav for?

Our tactics call for our full backs to attack and for a midfielder to cover so could some of the very few goals we conceded by blamed on a midfielder not fulfilling his role?


25.) 23 Sep 2021

Barrowlad that would be fantastic and a serious upgrade on Davis.

27.) 23 Sep 2021
23 Sep 2021 19:48:46
Totally agree with Barrowlad 👍I think veerman could be the replacement for the fantastic steven davis 🤔 Skov olsen for our right wing also John25 and of course it would depend on any of our first team regulars that get sold 🤔I think doehki would be a first team regular beside goldson/ helander 🤔
Ivanic would be a superb signing for our attacking mid position 🤔 What about you John25 🤔.


28.) 23 Sep 2021

Just don’t see Veerman happing if he has another good season more teams than us will be looking at him with more money and can offer more wages think he would cost 10 million plus and just do see us paying that for 1 player any time soon.

DK19 this isn’t last season it’s now this season and he has been poor and we ain’t keeping cleans sheets like last season.

It’s interesting that you mention last season tho what about the others seasons before that when he constantly cost us goals

Also we never had a great defensive record in Europe last season.

SGL it’s lundstrum or Alfredo that’s been the whipping boy on here recently and I don’t pay your posts anymore attention than anyone else but you keep
Thinking I do if it makes you happy because I’ll be honest I respect 99% of people’s posts on here yours just ain’t one of them.

Tav has done well for us over the years with goals and assists but also cost us as well and I would prefer to keep Patterson for a few more years yet than I would tav.

I ain’t bashing him just think his time is up.

Dito stormtrooper my friend dito 😁
Stormtrooper you keep rumbling this season tav's not playing well, so tell me THIS SEASON, how many of our players are playing well THIS SEASON 🤔 That's why tav is the whipping boy and i include you in that and trust me i don't respect your opinion on anything either whatsoever 😞.

Patterson will be a better defender/ player than Andy Robertson of that I am totally convinced. So what does that make him worth?


34.) 24 Sep 2021

SGL veerman
Doehki
Ivanic

All better than what we have.
