I’d rather have had the draw against the taigs at Ibrox, which he cost us with his inability to score from 5 yards. For a guy who’s played as a lone striker for the whole season in a high-scoring team, is 18 goals really much of an achievement? Less goals than Boyd? Not for me. Oh right so it alright to point out the misses and poor play but don’t mention the good play. ?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lee-irvine 53 Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 What can a guy do when the wide men are currently offering next to nothing, whilst the fullbacks behind them can't defend and a midfield that get bullied off the ball and create nothing. I don't think we can really blame either Cummings or Morelos, both have no support especially when you don't know what Murphy and Candeias will turn up.

STEPPS BOY 73,142 Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 In past 29 league games Morelos has scored 8 goals. Since January break he has more bookings than goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can bang on about his overall play and his “effort” as much as you like, but he is an awful, awful striker, who has cost us more points than he has won us this season. Stop talking sense ffs. We know the team isn't creative, but the chances he does get and misses are fucking horrendous. You won't win games with that, as we've witnessed, far less win a title.

He's supposed to be a striker ffs, not an ankle nipping terrier chasing lost causes and out of position. He's blowing through his erse by the time he gets in front of goal.

You can't, but Morelos is as much a striker as Tav is a defender. Pish. Cummings isn't it either, but he is smarter and more of a team player.

He played a crucial part in our goal last night with his quick thinking. I think what we’re seeing is a guy who is absolutely knackered and has 0 confidence rn. A full pre season and a team of better players around him next year and he’ll be good to go again IMO. I’m using the word striker very deliberately, I’m not saying he’s an awful player. I genuinely can’t recall seeing a less instinctive “striker”, he literally has no idea where the goal or keeper are unless he has an age to think about it. And nobody is ever going to teach him that, he simply doesn’t have it. I maintain that his goal tally for a lone striker playing almost every single game in a relatively high-scoring team is distinctly average, and would easily have been matched by Cummings (and I don’t really rate him either). This, combined with his absolute inability to understand/obey the offside rule, means I stand by it. He’s an awful striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if we set up correctly, his shooting ability is shocking. He isn't it. He is no McCoist or a Hately, or a Mols and many more of our better strikers. I don't know what he is.

hammer93 15,024 Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 I'm always hearing that Morelos is young and he will learn......what exactly is he going to learn? Morelos constantly finds himself in good goal scoring positions ( which is a positive) but he constantly fluffs his lines.....rarely have I seen a centre forward who seems to always get his timing wrong when about to pull the trigger.....for me that is natural ability and unfortunately Morelos dosent have it....if we want to win the league from the tims then we need much better.
