josmc 525 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Was fucking raging at the final whistle and particularly pissed off with Morelos. After thinking about it though, he was fuckin unplayable tonight. His hold up play was unbelievable and his part in the Tavernier chance was world class. A real pity he didn’t win the match for us as in hindsight he really deserved to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArranRfc 39 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Thought he was superb again though his finishing let him down in the end. Deserved a goal and the keeper made a few good saves but a couple of the chances he's got to do alot better with. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Folk need to be fucking patient with this boy and not let the frustration of our clubs failings hinder your judgement. Best striker we've had in a loooooong time. He IS our main striker, he didn't score. He had many shots on goal and missed. We dropped points, therefore his performance as a striker was not top drawer. By your logic, our main striker could be top drawer every week and not score and we could drop points again. We don't win the league. Do you now understand the flaw in your premise? If he doesn't score goals, along with goals that matter in us winnng, he is of no use to us or anyone as a main striker. Forget all that work he put in, as that will not make him a hero, nor us winners, but only that one goal last night that we needed if he done nothing else and he would be a hero aand I would kiss his arse all the way down Paisley Road West. BTW, he did put in a shift and thought early doors he was going to do it being on fire in every other way, but he disappointed me big time in not scoring. We need him scoring big time particularly when he's getting the opportunities, otherwise we can forget a title race and last night was a must win game on that score and we should have buried them.

You don't win titles with that kind od form. When he does his job in consistently scoring and scoring when it matters and not missing so many, then he will head and shoulders above the rest, but until then, he isn't.

Blue Avenger 22,567 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 All the acolades in the world will not make you a better player, nor win you games or titles. Only goals do.and winning goals at that. Our main striker failed yet again against dross, after missing many chances. Now, when he starts doing it against the scum and we win titles, then come back and discuss how great he is as only a sane man would. Until then, it's nothng but empty rhetoric and we are also rans.

The No.9 760 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 He was great last night at everything other than passing and shooting and his goal record is decent but it doesn’t show his finishing completely he seems to have hot spells then go long streaks without a goal. The frustrating thing for me is his lack of quality in the finish a lot of his goals are lucky smashes right at the keeper and it’s why half of them get saved. Absolutely need another striker in to help him out in the Jan window. He has great talent but a long way from being anywhere near decent EPL sides and the guy taking a swipe at mccoist lol 10x the finisher Alfredo will ever be at 22.

ShanksRFC 3,869 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 He needs to get his head up and look for a pass sometimes rather than going it alone. Everything he done last night was class bar his finishing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You say: "but only that one goal last night that we needed if he done nothing else and he would be a hero aand I would kiss his arse all the way down Paisley Road West" You hated windass for that exact reason. You honestly rant some amount of garbage. Morelos had an off night infront of goal but his overall performance was excellent and he's already made great strides from last season. Again you were 1 of the idiots that kept slating him in every game last season but the boy is young and his maturity and composure will come. Imo taverniers fresh air swipe was the worst miss of the lot. bluchoo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bakbear 3,586 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I think he applied himself brilliantly last night. Stayed on the right side of the rules. Much fewer fouls and more strong assertive play. His link up play and holding of the ball is brilliant. He has the presence of a much bigger guy I do think, like so many other strikers, he can be a bit selfish at times. There were 2 or 3 occasions last night where the square ball would have been a near certain goal but he tried to blast it himself. He will only get better and he will not be long for this league.
