2024/25 James Tarkowski

I agree with everyone who said yanking him was not only the right choice but a strong message. Like when Rashford has been benched. Not the same calibre player, but the idea’s the same. Effort and attitude vs. stupid mental errors.

He's also an experienced pro, don't think there's any need to coddle him over trying to win a game. O'Brien needs a go at CB sooner or later anyway.

His “Phil Neville” moment…

 

[MaximusEvertonius]

Moyes has no Burnley loyalty to Tarks. Next time James is costing us, he has to be pulled without hesitation. That’s what shrewd managers do who want to play in Europe.

I think we need to sign his replacement this summer. He's had a few very good games this year but he's had multiple bad games too. Domt think he's been good enough overall.

 

[Mozza1987]

Wouldn't even give him 0 out of 10 for that performance. Was disgraceful

 

[Osamabindiesel]

Cost us the game really. You can't give away goals to league opposition. Definitely can't do it in the cup.

 

[Paul Rideout]

I get why he wasn’t subbed because Moyes wouldn’t want to disrupt the pairing & probs doesn’t trust O’Brien in the middle or Dixon at RB,but on performance alone he should have been off at HT … and he didn’t get much better in the second half.

So one bad game is all it takes then. He’s been an absolute warrior for us that we got on a free signing. Can count his errors on one hand. Every player has bad games, he’s fortunately not had many or we’d be relegated.

I think you underestimate how many mistakes he makes. A lot of rash tackles. I like the guy but he's ludicrously slow, and teams target him with pace.

He’s been a very good signing for us given he was a free transfer. All centre backs make mistakes.

This is total nonsense. He's a yard dog, faux hard man knobhead.

 

[irishtony1878]

Some shameful comments in this thread.
The guy has had one bad game in a couple of seasons.

Undeniably. He was a major reason we stayed up but he's very much a pitbull player at the moment.

Schoolboy stuff today. I think he is on the decline but he’s still the 2nd best centre back at the club. Unfortunately it is what it is
