2023/24 James Tarkowski

[Zatara]

What was all that about. Not even a foul

We were about to break and the new player getting a 'taste of the league' gave West Ham an excuse to stop the game.

If the ref had played on we'd have had a very good chance to get down to their goal.

Tarkowski has really developed a fine understanding with Branthwaite and his teamwork with Patterson was nice to see.

Need to keep this back four.

Is this lad our captain?

Quiet as a church mouse on the pitch.

So much time wasting today and nothing from him in the refs ear.

What a difference a month makes.

I've never seen him more vocal than yesterday , right in the thick of it for any contentious decisions all over the pitch.

There's a few sore shins in East London today & the ref's ears still ringing.

Propper Captain/ Leader's performance.

Indeed. I think my post was after Luton.

Needs to be the same at Goodison/when things aren't going well.

Absolutely.

Honestly don't know what we'd do without his leadership and organisation at the back.

Much better the past month or so!
It amazing what a less experienced partner can do for his game!

Will be looked back on as a fantastic signing. Not just for his performances and calmness, but turning Branthwaite into a PL starter alongside this man is perfection. Imagine him learning his trade alongside Keane/Godfrey/Holgate.

Solid and a great header.

Solid and a great header.

....terrific header, plenty to do when that cross came in.

 

[Walken]

It suited him, but that was his best game for us imo

 

[Dixie1sixty]

Superb

 

[maccavennie]

Motm today. Great block 2nd half when he chucked himself at it.

 

[blueloon]

Another great performance from Tarks, had him as my MoM. Given their % of possession Pickford was rarely troubled, thanks to those in front of him.

Awesome player. Great game.
