Alfie gives us something else and means we can utilise him for the big games. Been donks since we had that option RM Monitor And Standards Officer 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIRB_72 4,148 Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 The finish for that second goal yesterday was fantastic. Just knows where the goal is and the keep then angles the shot perfectly! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post A.T.G 10,773 Posted October 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 4, 2022 Colak wouldn’t have made a difference tonight if he started. This was a Morelos type game and it just didn’t go his way. Midfielders were giving the ball away left right and centre. He’s a great option to start or come from the bench so at least we’ve good options up front. magic8ball, Rangers_no1, gmcf and 3 others 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
