RossS1873 1,633 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 We have been fortunate over the years to have some outstanding centre forwards that were all different and were successful: Mols, McCoist, Prso, Boyd, Jelavic. Early days yet but El Bufalo is showing great promise and here's hoping he keeps it up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

K.A.I 36,183 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 I think he's more like Novo than Wallace in terms of his style of play and finishing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

simplythebest 11,453 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Morelos will hopefully be a case of developing a younger player and selling him on for millions in a few years, looks like there's potential for it at least. Depressing as it might seem to be looking ahead to a player leaving it's the reality of the situation we have so it would be good to get real financial benefit for a change Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boybluesy 3,663 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 We need to lobby for some referee protection. Teams are getting away with too much. Morelos was scythed in the box but got fuck all. The intent was definitely to take him out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depressing as it might seem to be looking ahead to a player leaving it's the reality of the situation we have so it would be good to get real financial benefit for a change Don't overlook the money he can make us whilst being at the club, instead of having one eye on him leaving - the argument is similar with McCoist - the goals he scored to get us into Europe, winning leagues and cups etc probably far outway his wages as our manager. Different but kind of the same. A great goalscorer, especially in Scotland, is far more valuable being at the club than heading off somewhere for a fraction of his worth Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure and the hope would be for him to make us money that way as well while he's still here, but at 21 there's no chance of us keeping him all throughout his prime years if he keeps progressing the way he seems to have the potential to The thought of that is better than the last several years of either having to release a tonne of players players or sell them off for next to nothing Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ally had a natural ability to read the play and always be in the right place at the right time. You can't teach that. You either have it or you don't.

Shuggy 1,308 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I like his attitude, instead of just sliding off the pitch and slowly dusting himself down, he saw the opportunity and went for it. Ox takes out Fox in the Box. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangersScotty9 255 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 One of my all time faves was Marco Negri, had there been no troubles off the park behind closed doors he would've been the most prolific scorer Rangers would have ever have had in my opinion. The fact he banged in 36 goals in half a season should speak volumes for itself, he was a class act. Partnership it would have to go a long way to beat Coisty and Hately. Mols was another, up until the injury Mols had that potential, what a player he was, I just felt he wasn't quite the same after that injury but was still banging them in. You could definitely say we've not had a goal scorer like this in years who has all round ability. It was the Helsinki Manager I was reading earlier who taught him to chase those second balls, when he first arrived at HJK Helsinki he would stubbornly give up, but after working with him to chase down second balls it's greatly improved his game. He certainly doesn't give their defence peace. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad Robot 21,030 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Fantastic for us and I hope he keeps this form up as goals win leagues.

WGOH 2,344 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I know it is very unlikely and probably won't happen. But William Hill are offering 450/1 for Morelos top scorer and Rangers to win the league.
