gazza87 155 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 What is going on with these guys? Morelos looks woefully short of match practice for a guy that came to us half way through a season and definitely overweight. He isn't starting many games and I would have expected a bit more back by now. And Pena is yet to start a match. Obviously he might take a bit longer to get match sharp and arrived later but would thought by now he could have started against Watford. God knows ho much we actually paid for him but it's not exactly positive early doors. Not meaning to sound negative, just wondering what everyones thoughts are?

The Specky Forum Organiser 63,949 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Heard Pena cost £8.6m. Would be trying to recoup as much as we can before it's too late. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsasasfloppyhair 13,310 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Gazza geeze peace. They haven't played a league game yet. Let them settle in and then slaughter them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMckee 3,397 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Not too sure maybe he is waiting for them to settle a bit first or could be a language problem? Maybe they are not up to Pedros fitness levels yet - could be a number of reasons but don't think it's because there shite... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazza87 155 Posted July 27, 2017 Author Share Posted July 27, 2017 I'm not saying I've written them off, hoping they do turn out to be good buys. We don't have that much time to get up and running though, don't want to be relying on Martyn Waghorn... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 My thoughts are that hopefully if I ever move to a foreign country and don't know the language or my work colleagues that I would be given more time to settle than these guys have been given.

It's not just about match fitness it's about adapting to style of play, language barriers etc. Morelos has come from the Finnish league but we don't know what fitness regime that team was put through and therefore he might not be at our required levels. Calm down. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said before on here he isn't as bad as people make out and looks like he is here to stay but if you are happy with him as a first choice Rangers striker then theres something far wrong.
