Key playmaker in defeat at Goodison Tavernier placed two shots (one on-target), three crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 3-0 defeat to Everton.

Impact Tavernier was one of the Cherries more active playmakers on Saturday, but his impact was not enough to influence his team's poor performance. He created some of their more dangerous moves and managed to place one of the Cherries four shots-on-target. From five appearances (four starts) he has provided just one assist.

Takes starting role Tavernier started three matches in a row and created a chance in all three after returning from injury.

Impact Tavernier worked his way back to fitness during the September international break and has now taken a consistent role in the starting XI once more. The winger has been limited to less than 75 minutes per match though, and has failed to earn a goal contribution during the three starts. The reduced minutes are unsurprising after a heavy workload led to multiple injuries for Tavernier in 2022/23.

Ramping up minutes over break Tavernier started for the development squad in Tuesday's friendly against Sheffield Wednesday.

Impact Tavernier is ramping up his minutes over the break and he'll have 12 days between this friendly and the next match, Sept. 17 against Chelsea. It's a great sign for Tavernier that he can play 19 minutes off the bench and then a few days later feel well enough to take part in a friendly. If all goes well, he could be an option to start for the Cherries coming out of the break, likely jumping onto the wing with Justin Kluivert possibly being a casualty.

Creates assist on injury return Tavernier created an assist in Saturday's 2-2 draw against Brentford.

Impact Tavernier replaced Justin Kluivert after 71 on Saturday. This was his first appearance of the season following recovery from a knee injury. He only managed six touches but one was a well-timed pass to David Brooks that resulted in Bournemouth's second goal. The attacking midfielder is injury-prone, but he has a strong track record of scoring and assisting when he takes to the field.

Impact Tavernier is back on the training ground, at least in part, but is a very heavy doubt for Saturday's trip to Brentford. With no minutes in training prior to Friday, it's more likely Tavernier targets a return for a Sept. 17 clash with Chelsea.

Impact Tavernier had missed the last five matches of last season with a hamstring injury, but now picked up a new knee injury that will rule him out for the next few weeks. He had a promising campaign in 2022/23, recording five goals and four assists in 23 appearances. This means that Ryan Christie, Philip Billing, Joe Rothwell and Jaidon Anthony all options to start in the midfield to open up the new season.

A promising talent for 2023-24 Tavernier put in an exciting inaugural premier league season. From his 23 appearances (19 starts) he found the net five times and provided four assists.

Impact Tavernier's pace down the wing, and his dribbling ability, have shown to be a threat to the best of EPL teams. He will likely develop further next season and eclipse his 2022-23 scoring and assists tally.

Signs new Bournemouth deal Tavernier signed a new, five-year deal with Bournemouth, keeping him at the club until 2028.

Impact Tavernier was arguably the team's best player when on the pitch this season and Bournemouth acted quickly to secure him going forward. He finished with five goals and four assists from 23 appearances, but nagging injuries limited his overall impact in the second half of the season. If he can stay healthy, he could be headed for bigger things in years to come.

Still weeks away from return Tavernier (hamstring) is still a few weeks away from returning,"With Marcus Tavernier, we're still not clear on how long it will be. If we were scrapping and desperate to stay in t...

Impact For Tavernier to return for the last two matches of the season is a stretch after picking up a hamstring injury on April 27. The team do not want to risk any long-tern injuries, which may leave the midfielder sidelined for the rest of the season. With the club in relegation battle, this could be a big loss for Tavernier, who's started the last three matches with a goal in that span. Dango Ouattara is the expected player to play in the midfield during his absence.

Awaiting more hamstring results Tavernier is set for more hamstring scans and doesn't have a timeline to return, according to manager Gary O'Neil. "Tavs has had a scan and has a hamstring issue. We're not sure ho...

Impact It doesn't sound good for Tavernier, who could be out the rest of the season. He's dealt with numerous muscle injuries in the second half of the season and there's little reason to push him through the issues if he's going to keep injuring himself when given consecutive starts. Danga Ouattara started on the wing in his absence and could remain there going forward. At this point, there's a chance Tavernier doesn't appear again this season, especially with Bournemouth looking set to remain in the Premier League.

Not ready for Sunday Tavernier is not in the match day squad to face Leeds on Sunday.

Impact Tavernier misses out on Sunday's match as he continues to recover from a hamstring injury. The attacker will hope to return in time for next Saturday's match against Chelsea.

Late check for Sunday Tavernier (hamstring) is a late test for Sunday's match against Leeds, according to manager Gary O'Neil. "With Marcus, obviously we need to see how he is this [Friday] morning. Tha...

Impact It doesn't seem like Tavernier will be able to go Sunday unless it's absolutely nothing in terms of an injury. Still, out of precaution, it's hard to see Tavernier starting on a short week given his prior injury issues this season. He's been an immense spark since returning and will need to be replaced in the lineup with Dango Ouattara a possibility on the wing, though O'Neil could look elsewhere.

Comes off holding hamstring Tavernier (hamstring) went down holding his hamstring and had to be helped off during Thursday's clash with Southampton. Tavernier scored before coming off due to the injury.

Impact Tavernier went down and was in immediate pain holding his head in his hands. The severity of the injury is completely uncertain, though hamstring injuries always offer the potential to be long-term issues. Tavernier will be an uncertainty for a Sunday clash with Leeds on short rest. Adam Smith replaced Tavernier on the left side of the midfield.

No shots-on-target in rout loss Tavernier generated one shot (zero on goal), eight crosses (two accurate) and one corner in Sunday's 4-0 loss against West Ham United.

Impact Tavernier was Bournemouth's active playmaker down their attacking left flank on Saturday. He was not as effective as he could of been mainly due to a resilient and effective West Ham defense. The attacking midfielder's form has not been strong of late, it has been five games since his last goal. From 22 appearances (18 starts) he has scored four and provided four assists.

Leaves match injured Tavernier was subbed off due to injury in the 79th minute of Saturday's 3-2 win versus Tottenham Hotspur. He generated five tackles (three won) before exiting the match.

Impact Tavernier recorded five tackles for the first time since Oct 8 before he was replaced by Dango Ouattara with an undisclosed injury. It was his first in four matches, recording five tackles (three won), four crosses (zero accurate) and four interceptions in that span.

Scores in win Tavernier scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 victory over Fulham.

Impact Tavernier delivered the energy and pace that the Cherries needed in Saturday's second half to secure a dramatic comeback victory. He came on after 46 for Jaidon Anthony and scored minutes later. The attacking midfielder is in sharp form, he has scored in his last two games. From 18 appearances (16 starts) he has now scored four and provided four assists.

Ready to play Saturday Tavernier (hamstring) will be available against Fulham on Saturday after manager Gary O'Neil told reporters, "Marcus is back fit too."

Impact Tavernier has missed 10 of the last 12 contests for the Cherries since the international break due to various injuries. When he did play, the midfielder scored a goal on two shots (two on target) to go with one cross (inaccurate), one tackle (won) and one clearance. If he jumps back into the starting XI, Tavernier should offer solid fantasy upside given his attacking role.

Pictured in training Tavernier (hamstring) was pictured in training Thursday over the international break.

Impact Tavernier has been out for more than a month with a hamstring injury, but he's back in training and if all goes well over the next week, could be back in the starting XI for the match against Fulham. He's been arguably Bournemouth's best player when on the pitch but injuries have derailed his campaign since the World Cup. Assuming both start, he and Hamed Traore will be a question in terms of set pieces for the Cherries.

Aiming to return after break Tavernier (hamstring) will miss Saturday's clash against Aston Villa, according to Bournemouth manager Gary O'Neil on Friday, but he "expects" Tavernier to be available after the u...

Impact Tavernier has been out since mid-February with this hamstring injury, though he also missed a few months from December until that brief February return. He will miss out once again versus Villa this weekend, but he can hope to return by the Fulham clash at the start of April.

MARCH 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Remains sidelined against Liverpool Tavernier (hamstring) will not be in the squad versus Liverpool on Saturday.

Impact Tavernier has appeared in just two matches for the club since the World Cup break in which he made one start and recorded one goal on two shots (two on target), one cross (inaccurate) and one clearance. If Tavernier can get back to 100 percent, he should at least be in contention to reclaim a place in the starting XI.

MARCH 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out once more Tavernier (hamstring) will not be available for Saturday's clash against Arsenal, Bournemouth manager Gary O'Neil confirmed in his press conference Friday.

Impact O'Neil says that Tavernier is dealing with "a slight hamstring issue" that's "not too serious," and he's hopeful that Tavernier can return to the squad in one of Bournemouth's upcoming games against Liverpool and Aston Villa prior to the March international break.

MARCH 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out against Man City Tavernier will miss Saturday's match against Manchester City, according to manager Gary O'Neil. "He's had some tests done and there are a few more next week."

Impact Tavernier is a surprise absence Saturday after returning to the starting XI and scoring last weekend, though he only made it 57 minutes. The hope is that this isn't a reaction in his hamstring, as he already missed a good chunk of time with the injury. Without Tavernier, the Cherries struggled a bit in the attack and against Man City, it's not going to get better. Jaidon Anthony is most likely to take up the role on the left wing.
