If there is further improvement to come then we'll have signed a cracker. He is a cracker of a signing, cool as a cucumber at the vital moment when a lot of other players would have blasted that over the bar, he's made a career out of scoring goals like that one. theblueoysterbar, The No.9 and jjbscotty12 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueSuedeSambas 56,411 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Said it since the day we signed him. At his age he shouldn’t be running channels and working like fuck, he doesn’t really have the legs for it. Tell him to play along the 18 yard box and he will still score goals for fun.

Allyup 183 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Think he is a brilliant signing for us. he has such class and much more fitter than Boyd was when he signed again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morelos was fucking brilliant tonight until he got sent off. But having someone like defoe on the bench is a massive advantage. Not read the whole thread did the ‘fannies’ think he wasn’t a good player or didn’t suit being a lone striker? Scored a great goal will get better with games, but let’s be clear with our current personnel we’re better playing 4-3-3 and we don’t have the luxury of time to change it. He’ll likely be played more often at Ibrox but don’t see him starting many away games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluenoz 32,494 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 I know it's basically one on one with the keeper but it was the emphatic way he finished it. Defoe is growing on me, He might still have it !! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All great goalscorers miss easy ones. Mcoist, Owen, the list goeas on. What I was tring to say is I liked the way Defoe burst the net. He may still have it when i thought he might have been finished. Certainly a great option of the bench and 4-4-2 at home Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cushynumber 25,178 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 he is not morelos. We have to create more clear cut chances for him and his work rate isnt alfredos. But if we do create those chances, he will score. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why you’d think a partnership with him and Morelos would work, Morelos’ graft and guile creating chances for them both. The trouble is the shape of the rest of the team that lets that system down. jackunion 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trouble is the shape of the rest of the team that lets that system down. when we go 4-4-2, the midfiled isnt good enough to control games, so we lose a lot more possession.. i think it makes us a really good counter attacking team though - but we have to accept we wont see as much of the ball Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

esquire8 45,258 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 4-4-2 against the 10 men behind the ball dross we get from 8/11 teams and start Defoe 4-3-3 against the other 3 and bring him on to finish them off when the game is stretched. Goal a game guaranteed. Also for the OP, our style is winning. Nothing else. jackunion 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does my nut in tbh, folk writing players off without giving them any real chance and then come along with the ‘glad to be wrong’ line when the player does well - what about give them a fucking chance before writing them off?

I get what you mean but still, I’m assuming the whole point was that he doesn’t suit the 4-3-3, rather than him not being good enough, which again can’t be proved considering he’s barely played in it markem 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
