That said, anyone watching him at Easter Road is going to have reservations about paying alot of cash in August for him anyway, so not sure it makes a huge difference. If we can get in the £7-10m region we’d be doing very well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven33jackie 2,020 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 It's difficult to remember a situation that has been as poorly managed as this one. On the eve of the biggest match for years, we axe our top European goal scorer due to concerns over fitness and attitude. Now did these concerns only arise on Sunday morning? If there were concerns why are we even entering into contract talks and why are we not identifying and signing a replacement. esquire8 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Inigo 33,372 Posted August 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 23, 2022 It's hard not to back the manager on this tbh. Backed WS when he did it with Goram, albeit in different circumstances. I'm far more angry at Morelos for getting himself to this point. cstamomusa, BlueKnight87, DiamondDan and 4 others 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s actually a decent point. but I did notice Tav wasn’t happy with him after Saturday so maybe something happened in the changing room and that’s why there’s been a huge shift?

graeme_4 37,703 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 It’s obviously been an ongoing issue, particularly when you think back to Gio’s response to the Morleos question after the first leg vs PSV. superallysbears, The No.9, beararse and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swagger 9,039 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 So - Morelos looks finished, Jack looks done, Kamara looks like he’s wanting to follow his pals out the door, Goldson has switched off completely, Davies is rumoured to be fucked and Helander, Roofe, Hagi and Soutter have disappeared from the face of the earth.

Inigo 33,372 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 1 minute ago, RockwellGers said: I don't see it Inigo. I also thought he had some sharp little touches in his limited appearances this season, as well as some not so great ones which he has been known for in the past. He looked moody and volatile at the weekend, which I would have put down to him not being back in the prime spot yet, he's the sort of player who hates to be down the pecking order. I was pissed off but not necessarily worried about it in the long term. In light of these events today though, I have no idea what to think. I'd take GVB's actions as a reasonable sign that Morelos needs a boot in the arse, mate. I get folk love him. So do I. He's a talisman. He's been a hero plenty of times. I'll almost certainly love him in 10 years whatever happens now. But sometimes even our favourites need to be scrutinised. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prso's headband 36,844 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Tavernier was visibly furious on Saturday. However, I can’t see much changing, I highly doubt Morelos is the sole reason for our iffy start and I can’t see the team getting a lift from him being ousted because of it because I don’t think he’s the main issue graeme_4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if Morelos has been letting himself and the team down this season, players like Tav and Goldson will remember all too well the amount of times he bailed them out. The report on BBC says the decision is supported by all the senior players. plymouthranger and DiamondDan 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
graeme_4 37,703 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 When you think about the kind of senior pros we have like Tav, Goldson, Davis, Arfield etc - it’s not wonder they’d eventually hit their limit given how Morelos looks after himself off the park, turning up late back from international duty, red cards and fitness uses.

Aye okay then... I reckon Morelos has come back overweight and unfit and management have been aware of this. We have been dipping him into games in order for him to gain match sharpness, whilst expecting him to round himself into better general fitness over the weeks as a result of day in and day out training, but perhaps this general fitness hasn't come. And now management have had enough. The situation reads this way anyway. Negri's lovechild, The No.9 and The Specky Forum Organiser 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
