In fact he was superb.
Now you're just taking the piss.
Am I?
Here is an example of the discussion at the time on Tavares.

I said this last week, KT for some reason has been dropping off for me.
I have no problem with Nuno pushing ahead of KT in the pecking order, starting should be based on form not who's got the more popular name / brand.
Chat in and around the stadium during and after some of his performances were exactly the same.
Our fans, like most, have goldfish memories. Tavares has been bad in the 2 games he has been asked to step in for over the last 3 months, so he is getting flak.
Plenty to offer as a player as he has already shown.
If he plays like he did earlier in the season we will not miss Tierney at all.
I do think however we need Tomi back as part of that - for the reasons previously mentioned.
