Popular Post Vanoli 4,625 Posted August 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 9, 2022 Would have 3 in 4 if VAR was in place for the start of the season. Has taken a lot of stick, but he’s doing exactly what we brought him in for. Fingers crossed we finally have a reliable option to take the load of Alfie‘s back. kelvd1873, rangersross, J-Maestro and 7 others 10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gman 211 Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 unfortunately it's consistency of games that keep strikers sharp ( OK Alfie aside :)) - the problem will be if he has a sustained number of games being benched and then has to step up... hope i'm wrong.

The Specky Forum Organiser 65,594 Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Very good option throughout the season against the weaker teams meaning hopefuly we can prioritise Morelos minutes in a long season SeparateEntityMyArse, Roy Hobbs and scottyscott1963 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think the big man’s done well so far big goals, still can’t get over Tillman’s jump though hahaha. real boydie9 and Dan Deacon 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Maestro 11,448 Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Think he will get 15-20 goals this season easy. Having him, Roofe and Morelos is going to see us absolutely fine for this season. That's 45-60 goals a season just between the 3 of them. Drunk and disorderly., Dan Deacon and The No.9 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuart1994 4,352 Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Like him, very different from Morelos and Roofe but the more our attack starts to click and the more chances he gets the more goals he’ll get, 100% a finisher. real boydie9 and The No.9 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polo 1,435 Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 I liked his urgency tonight as well. Running to get the ball for opposition throw ins when we were chasing the tie, dragging Lawrence up so that we could build another attack and the ref wouldn’t stop the game etc. Malkytfp1, RangersMedia and johanhentze 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonicWill 843 Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 I’m very glad he’s got a couple of goals and he’s clearly got a good attitude on the pitch, but I’m still concerned by what I see. He still doesn’t offer the team much with his movement, meaning that if he doesn’t score then I don’t think he’s going to be of any help to the team. I’m also not crazy about “playing to his strengths”, which will likely see us bombarding the opposition box with crosses. This is a really inefficient way to try and score and we need to show more guile, particularly against SPL teams. Having said that, it’s early days and I’d be happy to eat my words. Fair play to him, he’s scoring at the moment - hopefully he can keep it going. BlueAvenger, Ivybank and williamorange81 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The No.9 760 Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 I’m probably backing him more than I should at times but I don’t know I just always feel Rangers when we get a good finisher or poacher we’ve been successful in the past and I have just had a good feeling about the guy from the night he played us and then again once we were linked with him I think his past goals show great variety. Morelos is definitely the more well rounded nuisance for defences but he goes missing a lot late in the domestic season and we’ve been needing another goal scorer who keeps fit and offers us something different. Hopefully tonight gives the new guys and old guard a lot of confidence and a bit more cohesion between them, would give Kent a rest on the bench for the start of Saturday again as well. real boydie9 and Dan Deacon 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlazingSandals 294 Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Main thing is , he’s a big improvement on Itten , no doubt he will be a good back up for Alfie , will continue to score goals for us this season Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaryMc 2,394 Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 If he keeps scoring and doesn't do much else much else then I'm happy with that. A good option to have. Probably been harsh on him expecting more from general play but if his game is based on just goals and being in the box really I suppose it is upto our attacking players to do more to support him.
