It could easily be an overworking issue on the break or not keeping the levels up it's a mystery but one Gerrard has to solve. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

slimjim1690 4,534 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 I'd love to sign him just as long as he's played in his correct position and not stuck out on the wing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueThunder 8,453 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 Back on topic for me I doubt we’d lose money on him. If the investment is coming in soon and we can support him with the correct players then it would be a great deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This!, he's the type of player you have to build the team around and his best position is central. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingKirk 25,647 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 I think he will sign but not just now we ain't in a position to be given anyone 4million right now. Also he must play as a 10 in behind the forward not on a wing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross-Gazza genius 1,907 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 The main question is does he really need him as he's not a winger and he's more suited to a central role. There's no doubt he's a good player but there's no point signing him to play through the middle unless he plans on moving Arfield or Aribo on. Gerrard really needs to sort out the right hand side and unfortunately I can't see us spending that money when we have other areas that are an issue.

ElBufalo20 7,892 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 The guys clearly got a reputation. £4m is worth it as an investment and could easily be sold for double that within a year. As others have said needs to be played in the middle of the park. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

B1872 20,718 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 Hopefully if we do sign him we change our tactics at home. Absolutely no need for 3 holding midfielders at home to everyone in Scotland apart from the beasts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has to be played through the middle. If Morelos goes then it is likely we would get a couple of strikers in his place who would be more able to receive balls through the middle. Just imagine we had a Lovenkrands type (not played on the left out of position), ready to receive through balls from quick thinking and inventive Hagi. It would be deadly. Morelos does well as a target man, and getting on the end of crosses but he isn't too great receiving through the middle, so I think this is what's dictating our current tactics. It's a good line of bullshit anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARK92GERS 807 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 I honestly don’t think we should be spending that kind of money on him tbh hasn’t shown enough for me and looks another luxury player drifts in & out of games to much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
