I don’t think he can play the lone striker role. He’s not clever or quick enough to find space where the likes of Candeias was putting the ball - he’s a fox in the box and needs a foil. My view so far anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenoz 31,277 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Barring injuries, Halliday and Krancjar will see very limited action going forward. The real battle for central midfield is between Goss, Doherty and Holt ( 2 spots ) and assuming McCrorie goes back to centre half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geronimoo 1,491 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I never really got to see the game but I believe he was played in a more CDM type role, the guy is an attacking midfielder and should be played in that role or not at all. He can't play numerous roles which is fair enough but GM will have to play him in a position he is comfortable in, not really fair to bash the guy when he is playing out of position and to make it worse it's a position the manager should know he can't play in.

Is a 'good utility player' a euphemism for he's shite in every position he has ever played, no wonder he couldn't get a game in Baku, sadly he's on a long contract thanks to that moron MW.

Tenerife Bear 1,748 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Last nights line up was full of dross. Guys who need game time in a game it didn't matter who played, we were going to win. Andy, like the rest of the team need minutes on the pitch to pick up their match sharpness. You could tell he hasn't kicked a ball in ages. That said watching guys like Hodson, Kranjcar and Halliday playing up there gave me flash backs of the worst banter years under McCoist in the 4th tier. Embarrassing. Sooner the summer clear out starts, the better although Andy himself won't be going anywhere. He is here long term with his pal, the gaffer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

its_an_extender 869 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 1. Receive ball with back to goal. 2. Take a terrible first touch. 3. Fanny about on the ball until opposing player takes ball from you. 4. Fall to the ground and roll around on the deck like a fairy OR foul 5.

I don't think Cummings could lace his boots tbh and it's quite amusing seeing so many people fanboying over him because he scuffed one in against Ross County. I want him to be as successful as the next man but fuck sake some people don't half get carried away on here. Picked the ball up at the halfway line, took it forward, got his shot away and scored yet, you refer to that as a scuff! Very strange. As for not being able to lace Morelos' boots, he has had some really shocking misses in the last few games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
graeme_4 35,171 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I’m not for getting on guys backs or making them a scapegoat, but he was fucking horrendous last night. Sad day when Hodson makes you look a player. Honestly should never pull on a Rangers shirt again, he’s regressed so much since the semi-final win. That said, he’s not the only one. Hodson, Dodoo, Herrera, Dalcio, MoH, Forrester, Krancjar and to an extent Miller are all brutal. Wish we’d got rid of the lot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cummings is a poacher and someone that can pull something special / unexpected out the bag. Morelos is a workhorse battering ram that gives defenders nightmares. His hold up play, pressing and leading from the front are excellent. I’d start him ahead of Cummings every day of the week - although he definately has a role to play.
