Rangers defender James Tavernier reveals what Steven Gerrard recently told him

Glasgow Rangers skipper James Tavernier has praised the Ibrox fans for the support they have shown towards him.

The 28-year-old right-back is one of the key players for Steve Gerrard’s side. This season Tavernier has scored three goals and provided four assists in 11 Scottish Premiership games for the Gers.

Tavernier came under strong criticism from the fans (mainly on social networking sites) after a recent dip in form. However, he came back strongly and fans chanted his name during the match against Ross County.

The attacking full-back has revealed that a heart-to-heart conversation with boss Gerrard has helped him rediscover his form.
