If you take McCoist roughly over the same time period in the league he had: 85-86: 25 in 33 86-87: 34 in 44 87-88: 31 in 40 88-89: 9 in 19 Why have you ignored McCoist's first two seasons at the club when he scored 8 then 12? Surely a more accurate comparison would be his first four v Morelos' first four rather than just picking any random four? 83/84 - 8 in 30 84/85 - 12 in 25 85/86 - 25 in 33 86/87 - 34 in 44 Total - 79 goals BookWorm 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At our team It's Roofe he miles ahead of the other strikers bar Defoe touch vision movement awareness but he's also injury prone. Morelos had been a great buy for a million quid but he looks well below average now but then again he can now play a 20 yard sideways pass.

Roofe in the league last season 14 goals which is still shit Morelos 12 goals and he's been our main striker picked every game. You cant honestly think two seasons of finishing with 12 LEAGUE goals is good enough for the main striker at Rangers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
