Sad truth is other than a few weeks in the second half of last season he's done nothing for almost 2 years now.

Yes he's still picked up some decent enough numbers in the main but performance wise, lethalness and just feeling like a clinical striker he's nowhere

You could never have accused him of being clinical to be fair but he was at least still a pest when he was off form before. Just now he’s doing nothing to concern the opposition 

Maybe would’ve been worth giving big Itten an actual run in the team at a time like this but we took that option away from ourselves

The high press worked last season when we had 5 subs to freshen things up, even with that we started to run out of steam and have carried that into this season. We just don't have the legs to play that way for 90 minutes week in week out. Unfortunately the coaching staff seem unable to come up with a working alternative yet. 

That's a fair point regarding the 5 subs but we lost our high press in January when 5 subs was still a rule and we've also seen the high press working well in previous seasons when we were only allowed 3 subs so fuck knows.

I don’t think for a second gerrard believes that, he’s got to say that to protect his players but it’s time they started paying him back or he should be throwing them under a bus, not in a lennonesk way in public but I hope he’s going thru them in private

He literally said it the other day to a reporter.

Did Morelos used to be quick or am I misrembering that? 

Seems like an age since he's run in behind a defence or outrun a defender.

Constantly doing the aged Michael Owen of drop deep, switch play or lay off, get in the box for a cross.

Maybe saying he was quick is a stretch but he definitely had enough of a turn of pace to run at a defender then use his strength to try and beat them

He has never been the quickest but wasn’t slow either. He definitely used to take players on more though he loved megging the defender and driving towards goal but he hasn’t done shit like that for about a year and a half.
