James Tavernier lands brutal Rangers legacy assessment from Jury as Celtic transfer drive put in focus

dailyrecord.co.uk

Andy Newport: Plenty of goals but not nearly enough medals is how I’d assess the right-back’s contribution these past nine years.

He was key to lifting the club’s 2021 title and just as important on the road to Seville but three trophies simply isn’t enough for almost a decade at Ibrox.

Good servant but not a club great. Scott Burns: Tavernier deserves his place in the club’s hall of fame for the ridiculous amount of goals he’s scored from full-back and his part in returning Rangers to the top of Scottish football with their title success in 2021.

But a true great? I’m not sure he ranks alongside the bona fide Ibrox legends. Fraser Wilson: Tavernier has been a blame figure for Gers fans in recent years simply because he has worn the armband but his goals and assist record is phenomenal and he does at least have one title to his name.
