His all round game in general is still good, he was pissĀ poor against Dundee United. BottomĀ line is heās a striker and will be judged on scoring goals. Hopefully he starts hitting the net again, hibs would be a good time to refindĀ his goal scoring formĀ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al 55 9,245 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 If we have enough form players to leave Morelos out of OF game then I would.Ā Ā Biggest chance of losing that game is by having a player sent off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flatcap 489 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Too many people make too much of who our best 11 are. It's completely irrelevant. We are Rangers. We are the collective sum of our squad and our magnifient support. Whoever the manager decides to step out for each game is good enough for me given the way the season has panned out so far. We are so far removed from the last few seasons, due largely to the manager and his decisions. In SG i trust. Here's to 55! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hooooootchy 405 Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 Just what I needed, and probly alot more needed, a comfortable nerve free night. Thought aribo was brilliant, hagi not far behind. Everyone else was good enough. Maybe Kent a wee bit below the rest but worked hard.Ā That's got me more confident for the hibs game.

Ā He doesn't have the vision nor the touch of Hagi. Very different players suited to different roles. Alfie is an out and out striker off form,Ā whereas Hagi is a natural no.1O who can cut open packed defences. Alfie needs to make a bigger impact on starting or when coming on as a sub to get a regular starting place. He is very much needed in the campaign as is a return to form which would be awesome.

The Morelos this season has been a shadow of that guy.Ā Ā itās a shame because he used to be the main man. Our play relied on him. Then we expected to lose him so we reconstructed our team to play to different strengths and now he is a bit part player.Ā Roofe, Itten, and Defoe all can be relied upon now more than Alfredo.
