Buff can play slightly off the right but Roofe is more central. Maybe a good dilemma to have, then Defoe might also still be here I hope. Think he offers alot in a coaching/playing sense. I’ve watched him in a few games this season mate. He can play right across the front.

Aye, he seems versatile. Think Gerrard likes players that are adaptable, good for the way we interchange up front, so basically our fwd line all have a "free role" to a degree. Just hope we can keep Morelos aswell. AlbertzLoyalRSC 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much as it pains me mate I think the minute our valuation of Alfie is met he'll be gone and I think that will be this summer, dont think this boy was signed to sit on the bench, but I honestly think he can ease the pain of losing Alfie, Hoping JD will still get minutes, forget age he's still the best finisher in the country, very intelligent and very capable in this league, Ideally combined with a striker coach role, would be a wise use of budget to have him help develop our strikers imo. Roofe's been superb despite his injury issues, hoping a full pre season will see him fly out the blocks. Far too soon and unfair to right off big Cedric, a striker needs a run of games and he's not had that, harsh to judge him and want him binned on what we've seen of him, this summer he'll get a break and a pre season , he didn't have that last year, needs another season to properly evaluate what we have with him.

I'm not writing off Itten mate, don't think he's had enough games but can finish and links up well. If Morelos stays however, which he may well do, I can't see us having five forwards, so I think Itten would maybe be loaned out then just for game time.

Ano bud was just giving my thoughts on all our strikers, wired tbh, Agree, if Alfie stays Cedric should mibbe be loaned but it depends where, he needs to be playing and at a fairly decent level to make it worthwhile. I think Alfie will be off, any reluctance perspective buyers may have had about his discipline for me should be gone, he's matured on the pitch a lot this season, we've seen it v the tarriers, instead of letting them get under his skin and biting he's been getting under there's and scoring, played in a deeper role at the start of the season and played for the team, he's become far more selfless, his decision making is better and contributes far more than goals. Be amazed if teams aren't looking at him this summer tbh. AlbertzLoyalRSC, SteveEarle and Leftpegcoopz11 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I read somewhere he wants a shot at the CL, but can't remember where I read it, so probably take with a pinch of salt if it was from SMSM.

Alfie's head was turned last summer with speculation and a potential move, think the club would have sat down with him and told him that when our valuation is met he can go and sadly I think that's what will happen. The other side of it is that Investing some of his fee on some real talent in the middle of the park would be no bad thing.

Arfield is good when he's at it, bit injury prone. Hopefully Jack will get up to speed and stay clear of injuries, Davis still great but age will eventually dictate (didn't last season right enough) and can we hold on to Kamara - I hope so, if not I think we need two quality midfielders that slot straight into the team. The guy from Bournemouth is an unknown quantity and probably coming in with less experience than Kamara so need to shape him into our style/better player.

That's right, I forgot Kamara is out for 2 games in CL I think. Roofe for 4. Forward line should be covered but midfield needs addressed, our weakest area for cover IMO.

He's excited just talking about us Honestly think he is a fan and didn't need to do his homework. What's not to like about the boy. Welcome to the world record holders Fashion.

Leftpegcoopz11 4,582 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 I thought he said that He spoke really well in that interview, and like a few other players we have, they want to play for Gerrard. Dave King did in fact pull off a masterstroke there. The scum won't get a manager that can attract players to Scottish football.
