Josh93 Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 Not sure if it's been mentioned anywhere else but does anyone think cotts will try and bring him back next season? Would you be happy to see him return permanently? I'd definitely welcome him back if the price and wages were reasonable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingswoodactor Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 I really think Wigan will be keen to keep hold of him seeing as he's now experienced two back to back League 1 promotions, but maybe he'll want to force a move here if both he and us are keen to make something happen.

cidered abroad Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 He was not as match unfit like Matt Smith when he arrived, but just like Smith, he has improved the more games he has played. I would imagine that Cotts like many managers, uses the loan system to assess whether a player will fit in or not. A definite possibility that we might be interested in recruiting Tavernier.

Lrrr Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 May have 1 or 2 preferred choices but think Cotts would be happy to sign him should he not get the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lrrr Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 If for some reason Little weren't fit I expect we will sign a new CB and Ayling could fill in at RWB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slacker Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 YesHope you are right.He was a big part of our success.It must have been torture for him not being involved in the last few games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron-Bcfc Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 Hope you are right.He was a big part of our success.It must have been torture for him not being involved in the last few games. He basically said this, that he was on a bit of a downer after missing the last few games/celebrations. But also said he will be fit and raring to go for next season.

James Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 I'd be more than happy with either Tavernier or Kane should Cotts feel that RWB is an area that needs strengthening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Rizzle Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 If for some reason Little weren't fit I expect we will sign a new CB and Ayling could fill in at RWB. I disagree. Little will be fit for pre-season so no worries there. We're a bit beyond 'filling in' now and IMO it's clear we need more depth at rwb in the same way that we have both Bryan and Cunningham on the left. Bryan is first choice but Greg still played a lot and there were numerous times when we rested Little during the season because of fixture pileups. Assuming Byrne is a bit beyond us, I'd be more than happy to sign Tavernier to compete with Little for that position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strawberry2157. Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 He may have a clause in his contract with Wigan getting relegated, he could be cheap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamC Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Rumour was that he wanted to rejoin Rotherham on loan but Wigan blocked it because they were in the same division. If we continue with 3-5-2 we need an alternative to Little because much as I like Waggy he isn't a Championship right wing back. Wigan didn't recall Tavernier even after another change of manager, so my bet is that he won't start next season with them but possibly not with us, either.

Orbital Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Byrne of Swindon would be my shout. I would pick up Gladwyn too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Isewater Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Tavernier is a class player but really needs to work on his positioning as a wing back . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was born in Bradford and has spent most of his career in the north. It depends, of course, if Rotherham want him, but their team definitely needs strengthening.

Carey 6 Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Better than Little. Hope we sign him permanently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingswoodactor Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Out of position for both Walsall goals. But he's learning the position and, like Joe Bryan, it'll take a bit of time to master it. He's fit enough, fast enough, and good enough so I wouldn't be surprised to see him back here. Ayling was probably more to blame for both goals than Tavs IMO.

HLR Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Think Tavernier would be a handy addition to the squad, competition between him and Little for RWB can only be healthy - also seems to have fitted into the squad well which is a key factor too. Could do a lot worse lets be fair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex_BCFC Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Tavernier got better with each game and I would prefer him over Little who really only has pace. That won't be enough in the Championship whereas Tavernier has a bit more about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Robbo Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Better than Little. Hope we sign him permanently. Different not better. Not as strong as Little, or as fast. Little's value to the team is how often he can take the ball 50 yards upfield to a dangerous position. Tavernier doesn't do that as much, but he has a better shot.

redcherryberry Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Get Nathan Bryne in who is OOC at swindle. He would add a new attacking dimension to the team given he pops up all over the pitch putting balls in the box. He's even got more assists than JB which is impressive.

Admin phantom Posted May 5, 2015 Admin Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Would be a great addition to the squad, but as Wigan are his parent club, we may be waiting to see what they do before we move on him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lrrr Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Wonder if Cotts may look at Todd Kane, we know City like a small squad and Kane's ability to be a RWB and a more than competant back up in CM could convince Cotts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezgimed Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Has more about him as a footballer than Little who is more of a bulldozer and limited at that. Sign him up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
