I'll never forget the media campaign that was disgusting but he's the main man for the biggest club in the land. Not going to argue with that but he had a lot going on. Pregnant mrs( stressful as fuck for the first one ) , all that private investigator shit, racially driven media campaign , getting up to speed after the winter break + long suspension and on top of that perfectly good goals disallowed which would have allowed him to kick on. With all that going on it's no wonder his form and head went a bit. I think we sometimes forget the players are human. Things going on off the pitch will affect performance in many. I'll be delighted if we get another year from him. I would like to see another physical striker brought in so we can take him out the firing line if things look to be getting on top of him again.

I know what you're saying, and believe me, I'm grateful for his goal - especially in Europe. But it's a bit difficult to compare how an imaginary team would be able to perform against the team we all saw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like us to have a few different types of strikers available so that we have more than just a plan A. It's almost as if we didn't work on other systems and if Alfredo was rotten in front of goal, then taking him off and putting on another striker with different attributes wouldn't matter - because we still lump balls up to him. We saw this with Defoe, who's obviously better getting through balls than retrieving punts up to him and holding off defenders. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjbscotty12 3,558 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Boyd used to hit 20+ league goals regularly even miller hit over 20 goals in half a season. Morelos goal stats in league since arriving: Season one 14 goals Season two 18 goals. Season three 12 goals. Do you really think that’s a good scoring record for the main striker of the biggest club in the country? I think they numbers are replaceable in the Scottish premiership.

I didn't really know his domestic goals were so low, like you said - he'd be easily replaceable in the league, but not in Europe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BridgeIsBlue 66,498 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 77 goals in 137 games (according to transfermarket) speaks for itself. Be interesting to find out how many games it took Boyd and Miller to hit 100 goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a fact that his league goals throughout a full season aren’t very good. The only reason it’s boring to you is because you can see Morelos do no wrong.

Not to mention league and cup. Alfredo dug oor Stevie out a hole on more than one occasion that’s for sure. folk wanting him gone haven’t a clue about the implications. 🙏❤️ To be fair , he's thrown him down a hole in more than one occasion too .
