Rangers fans explode at James Tavernier after what he did v St Johnstone
Rangers fans are fuming at James Tavernier after his “stinking” performance in the Scottish League Cup win v St Johnstone.
Philippe Clement’s side progressed into the next round thanks to a 2-0 win after goals from Cyriel Dessers and Ross McCausland who came off the bench to find the net.
However, the spotlight pointed at their captain after yet another frustrating display amid heavy speculation about a move away from Ibrox this summer.
Several wasted opportunities, firing shots over the bar when better options were available, and a shakey defensive display added to the anger at Hampden Park.
Football Insider revealed on 21 July that the right-back had agreed personal terms over a move to Trabzonspor, but an agreement was never reached between the clubs.
Now, his performances in the opening stages of the new season have led to renewed calls for the club to cash in before the transfer window closes on 30 August.
