It was lost by not being able to beat the other 10 regularly enough, Given the number of goals he got against them we'd have been battling for 3rd/4th without him. Losing Morelos will be utterly detrimental to our title challenge Spot on. 10 points to Kilmarnock, 6 points to Hibs and 4 points to Aberdeen. You even just cut that in half and we win the league last season. Obviously the same could be said for games against celtic but beating them 4 times is extremely rare. As for Morelos he scored 6 goals in 10 (50% of goals in those matches) against those three sides in the league and 13 goals in 14 games against the same sides in all comps.

It makes no difference then. He’s scored 30 goals end of story, but the “You need to get shot at any price Gang” always throw it in and totally blow any rational debate on Mo. Watch the narrative change if he stays and does score against them, it will be aye but he hasn’t scored in the CL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Traive 22,684 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Have to say that, in my experience, the people who most often bang on about the fact that none of his 30 goals happened to be against them, are usually taigs trying to undermine a superb young striker who they would love to see leave Ibrox.

bluenoz 30,580 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Boyd took a fair share of criticism for his lack of goals against the taigs. I don't see why Morelos should be any different. 30 goals is huge and would be really hard to replace but he has to score against them this year if he is still around. The game is watched worldwide and would only increase his market value. The longer it continues, the more it will be discussed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't care less if he never scored against the taigs. If we win leagues and cups due to his goals then it doesn't matter. Say he gets 4 against the taigs next season and we lose 1 3, 3 1, 1 2, and 3 1 against them in the games then does that make him a world beater? It's a fucking ridiculous argument Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked at big Marvin for example or more recently Arfield. Your example of him scoring when losing to them is too hypothetical. If Morelos scores against celtic it increases our chances of winning trophies. Btw, I want Morelos to stay....... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOAT 30,449 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Morelos for me is entitled to criticism for not scoring yet against the bheggers, but that doesn’t mean you can’t show praise to him for everything else he offers the team. Mark my words, if he’s still here this season he will score against the bheggers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

6superbarry6 14,121 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Give me a Morelos who rag dolls their defence for 90 minutes creating chances for others over someone who scores against them but does fuck all else any day of the week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negri's lovechild 13,772 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 We will also set up differently against them, meaning Morelos does a different job to the one he does against a team where we know we will have more of the ball and that he will see less of it, meaning less opportunities. Boyd also got an unfair rap. It's about beating all the smaller teams consistently and we haven't been able to do that yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ladytonbear 371 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I so want him to stay for another season, primarily because I don't think we will be able to replace him with anyone as good. I also think that another season, winning silverware, a decent performance in Europe and a years more maturity on his part can only make him a more valuable asset for the club if we do cash in next year.

I've never seen a performance like that from a Rangers striker since Daniel cousin final match for us. He's a wee animal and teams hate playing against him. Cousin was unplayable in that match. Totally unplayable. Still one of my favourite games from a Rangers player in the 'modern' era! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
siddiqi_drinker 14,635 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Love the wee man to score vs the taigs but only fenians and a few dickheads obsess over it Should he score a couple in our next game vs them his detractors will no doubt find something else in the D.Record to buy into and complain about.

STEPPS BOY 73,668 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Agree with the posters about him not scoring.. If he wants to be held in same regard as legends like Erik Bo Anderson, Kenny Miller and Steven Naismith then he needs a goal against them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
