James Tavernier was benched for Rangers' Europa League draw at Olympiakos. But what does that say about the captain's future?
That was the question posed by former Rangers winger Neil McCann when manager Philippe Clement opted to throw on Neraysho Kasanwirjo instead of James Tavernier during Thursday's Europa League draw at Olympiakos.
Tavernier was eventually brought on for the final five minutes, although he was deployed in a more advanced role on the right-hand side. However, the Englishman has been able to drown most of them out with his staggering attacking output, which stands at a remarkable 126 goals and 132 assists in 478 games.
It is impossible to say whether the result would have been different or not had Tavernier started, but what is clear is both Sterling and Kasanwirjo can be pleased with their defensive displays against a disappointing Olympiakos attack.
