The same with Alfredo and Helsinki? Funny that. Jack had 3 or 4 red cards in nearly 200 appearances for Aberdeen. He managed to equal that in a season with us.

If another striker whether it be Defoe, laff or another forward we got in , the chances we create the way we play, somebody else could score them goals. It doesn’t have to be him! Totally disagree MK because when Morelos is missing we struggle badly to score. There is more to his game than goals. His build-up play is excellent. 29 goals and 13 assists. Lafferty has been woeful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He bullies defenders. Lafferty and Defoe do not have that in their locker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clubs will use his poor disciplinary record as leverage when negotiating with us. I think we also need to remember that although he's undoubtedly a prolific goalscorer, those that may be interested in him will also be looking at the quality of the teams he's been playing against. And let's be honest they aren't exactly good. That's going to be a factor as to his value. Regardless, I'd punt him today for what we paid for him plus a Mars Bar and a bottle of full fat Irn Bru.

Other clubs already don't pay too much for players in the SPL unless they've proven it on the European stage. Not having a single goal against the taigs coupled with his shocking disciplinary record means I think we'll get about 10 million for him in the summer.

Anyway, I honestly don't care what we get for him (obviously the more the better), at least it gives the club money to invest in players who are interested in actually playing (as opposed to throwing tantrums and being sent off). Here's the bottom line: it doesn't matter how good he is, if he's not on the park he isn't earning his wage. He needs to go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People forget that we only bought him for 1 million so anything around the 10 million mark is still a pretty hefty profit, even if we all know he's worth more than that as a player. His reputation has been shot to shit up here, mostly from the media but he hasn't helped himself, especially yesterday & I think that will have devalued him a bit as clubs will be able to say its a risk signing him.

Yep. Agreed on all points. I'd go further and say that I'm a bit sorry for him (but not that sorry) that he can't control his temper and he doesn't seem to "get it". By that I mean that the game is (sadly) about more than football. I bet Scott Brown woke up and thought to himself, "Now how can I get Morelos to react..." It's all about the game.

I feel sorry for him that this all started because the taig loving media can't stand to see us with a quality player But since the turn of the year my sympathy for him has gradually went down and yesterday was the final straw for me personally. Course Brown tried to wind him up but to react like that is just idiotic, especially when he must've been told all week to expect stuff like that to happen, walk away or go down and play them at their own game, don't retaliate the way he did. Hope he has a good career elsewhere and happy that we'll make a hefty profit regardless but his times up for me here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then keep doing him slyly till he reacts. Get him sent off. Cunt taps his ankle ffs then goes down from smelling Morelos armpit as he lifts his elbow.

Sweetheart 8,458 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I didn't know where to post this but I think it's worth a mention. Such a kind gesture from Morelos and Halliday towards a young girl with month's to live, who is being cruelly taunted online. ' Quote STAY STRONG' Rangers star Alfredo Morelos sends letter to terminally ill schoolgirl branded ‘ugly’ by cruel trolls Brave Kiara Buonomo has been battling brain cancer but has become the target of sick online jibes saying 'hurry up and die' By Connor Boylan Rangers star Alfredo Morelos penned a heartfelt letter to a terminally ill schoolgirl after cruel trolls branded her “ugly”. Brave seven-year-old Kiara Buonomo was diagnosed with brain cancer last year. It emerged earlier this month that the young girl’s family had received vile messages aimed at Kiara, saying “hurry up and die” and talking about rape. But today, Kiara’s dad Aldo Buonomo revealed his daughter had been sent a letter of support from her beloved Gers and signed photos of her heroes Morelos and Andy Halliday. The letter from the striker said: “Dear Kiara, I have heard you are an avid Rangers supporter and you have been going through a difficult time recently while in hospital. “On behalf of all the players and staff at Rangers Football Club, I would like to take this opportunity to send you our very best wishes and stay strong! Keep fighting!” Kiara has been given only months to live. Her parents made an online account to track her brave fight for survival – but it soon became the target of sick online slurs. Kiara’s mum Natasha Kinlan, 30, previously told how the evil jibes left her feeling “sickened”. Kiara was originally diagnosed when she was six after going to hospital with a shaky hand. Medics managed to remove 95 per cent of her 5cm brain tumour in a 13-hour operation — but this year the cancer came back, and there's nothing more doctors can do. It’s understood Police Scotland are aware of the cruel online taunts and are probing the comments https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/news/scottish-news/4111612/Rangers-alfredo-morelos-glasgow-kiara-buonomo-cancer/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
