Morelos will be back, its up to himself, i know he's stupid but he wont throw his career away. Gio has doen this because its whats best for him and the team.

Especially in Europe, not so much domestically. He very much plays for himself. Not a huge issue for a CF, but an issue when it doesn't all go his way. His international career fucks us up with him missing domestic big games too often. I genuinely think this is a disciplinary matter. I think something over and above the red card has happened. He wasn't entirely at fault on sat. But he's stupid as he knows what happens to him with certain refs. I'd have taken him as a "just in case needed" tomorrow. But I'd move him on if we can this window. Take anything we can get, invest wages on someone else urgently, we can't rely on him and we might well not get the good Alfie back the rest of the season. Sad ending. In what way was he not entirely at fault on Saturday? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think people are spinning this to be honest. Sure it was reported initially that he’d spoken to the senior group and they backed the decision. Each paper then puts it in their own words. Bottom line is Gio said he took the decision himself, but that he talks to the senior group about lots of things.
