frmr Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 Just now, Floortom said: When was the last time he was a hero? Honest question - I can’t remember him playing particularly well in quite a long time He was one of our best players at the World Cup, including the assist on Davies' goal. It got him a move to Inter. Also his goal against Mexico at the Azteca. Just off the top of my head. But yes, he needs to improve his consistency with Canada for sure.

narduch Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 I said this in the game thread, the bigger problem for Tajon is that he was an attacker in MLS and is basically being used as a defender in Europe. It has made him not as sharp on the attacking side now Canuckia, WestHamCanadianinOxford and The Real Marc 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honest question - I can’t remember him playing particularly well in quite a long time If the World Cup is quite a long time ago, I agree. For the neutrals in the UK, he was our best player then. Club situations have not been great since then. Why the first consideration when we make transfer wishes should be if players are going to play. kacbru, Canuckia, CanadaFan123 and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narduch Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 Inter using him exclusively on the left doesn't help either Canuckia and WestHamCanadianinOxford 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinceA Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 I feel like he can so some damage as a sub at the moment. He hasn't been a decent starter for over a year now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has made him not as sharp on the attacking side now He has had opportunities to attack, you look at their other wingbacks and their stats. And he has come on when they were killing teams a lot of the time. Just not enough minutes full stop, for me. narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canadasoccer20 Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 He was arguably our best player in the World Cup only a few years ago and now seems like the lack of playing time has effected his trademark of taking defenders on. Maybe letting Shaf start the next game in his place will light a fire in his arse. Bertuzzi44 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_S Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 His defensive play has been very good. No wonder he's spent at the 60 minute mark with all the tracking back. Unnamed Trialist 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestHamCanadianinOxford Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 Weird rumour about Tajon's left side at Inter https://www.interlive.it/2024/06/19/emerson-palmieri-e-20-milioni-milan-al-tappeto-se-linter-accetta/ Emerson Palmieri e 20 milioni: Milan al tappeto se l’Inter accetta Il West Ham potrebbe giocarsi la carta dell’ex calciatore della Nazionale Italiana come contropartita per l’affare Carlos Augusto ma ingaggio alto per l’Inter, il Milan osserva risvolti sull’erede di Theo Basically West Ham are offering Emerson Palmieri, plus cash, for Carlos Augusto, the player that is ahead of Buchanan in the race to back up DiMarco on the left side. (Unfortunately Tajon doesn't even get a mention when the writer outlines the situation) Emerson could also go to Milan to suceed Theo Hernandez. johnyb and jhoops__ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingvikingstad Posted July 2 Share Posted July 2 (edited) Let's find out what happened, but I'll just say that in some of the training videos they posted I was a bit shocked at the intensity of the challenges (one in particular, can't remember in which video). Let's hope this doesn't cause any fractures (pun not intended) within the group if he was injured by someone else, and issues between our national team and the player's club teams. I cant imagine Inter will be happy Edited July 2 by kingvikingstad rkomar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack1997 Posted July 2 Share Posted July 2 (edited) Fuck man, worst possible news right now. I’d like to stay positive but that sounds bad, hoping for a speedy recovery. Only positive news we can take out of this is hopefully the boys play for Tajon and go to another level.

InglewoodJack Posted July 2 Share Posted July 2 (edited) Hospital trip, practice cancelled, Johnston saying the mood was “somber”- this sounds like a broken leg. I hope it looks a lot worse than it is, but this sounds devastating. Apparently the team could “hear” the injury which is not a great thing to hear: Edited July 2 by InglewoodJack Canuckia, YorkRegionFan and johnyb 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
