Thought Morelos was superb tonight.
His hold up play and distribution have been a massive loss in the last few games.

You really can’t underestimate it. Another huge performance from him on a big European night. Involved in all the goals, caused them no end of problems and his return is even more welcome with the injury to Roofe. He had the battle fever on.
Keep getting it up the haters Alfie, you’re doing just fine.
We all know that, and there are very few that can, i have always thought he is Diego Costa like.I’ve said before - no one in our squad an come close to replacing him. We are much poorer without him. Lennon paid him one of the biggest compliments when he said ‘Morelos can occupy a full back line on his own’

Some of the comments he attracts would suggest we do not all know that.We all know that, and there are very few that can, i have always thought he is Diego Costa like.

WTF....he was the best player on the park. Contributing to all 4 goals!He didn’t have a great game again but his sheer presence just seems to provide so much space for others to play.

Stubbornness etcTough crowd
There seems to be a feeling amongst the support that less goals = playing poorly. If anyone is in any doubt of what he brings to this team they just need to watch this game back. Outstanding.

We’ve gone 3 pages without his miss being sarcastically mentioned, indicative of how well he played tonight.Tonight was a lesson for the “ultimately strikers should be judged on their goals” brigade. A lesson in how a striker can go 90 minutes without scoring and still be the best player on the park and the most vital player in terms of playing their part in the goals and the victory.

well said sir. He is setting himself up for #55 at the piggeryYou really can’t underestimate it. Another huge performance from him on a big European night.

Agree but they deserve some of the stick they get. Tonight Alfie was excellent and he is so so important to us we needhim on the pitchMorelos and Kent. Two players who get some amount of stick on here. Vital to us
Boom.We scored a total of 3 goals in the 3 games he missed. We scored 4 in his first game back.
The both have an impact in pretty much every game we play.Agree but they deserve some of the stick they get. Tonight Alfie was excellent and he is so so important to us we needhim on the pitch
Ryan Kent is capable of this type of performance more often
Yip saving it for his crowning glory .Just got a feeling he’s breaking his duck at the piggery.
I think that’s more down to the opposition team actually trying to score against us and opening up.We scored a total of 3 goals in the 3 games he missed. We scored 4 in his first game back.
WildHe didn’t have a great game again but his sheer presence just seems to provide so much space for others to play.
Not scoring as many as previously because he's playing for the team in a different role, but he'll score. After Davis, he's the one we can't leave out.First of all, helluva game, but I’ll leave that and the analysis to the match thread.
In terms of Alfie, what he brings to the team is unbelievable. Selfless running, brave, amazing workrate and drags defenders all over the place. Oh and his wee touches and layoffs can be brilliant. OK, he isn’t scoring as many as he has done, but he will. And by Christ we’ll miss him when he goes
Definitely helps but Morelos had 2 assists, won a penalty and played the cross to Kent to win the 2nd penalty.I think that’s more down to the opposition team actually trying to score against us and opening up.
Timmy?All you will hear from Timmy was that he didn't score.
So much more to his game now.
He was great tonight
I’m sure the Buff will be getting a victory ride when he returns home
His presence lifts the team and bothers the opposition.You really can’t underestimate it. Another huge performance from him on a big European night. Involved in all the goals, caused them no end of problems and his return is even more welcome with the injury to Roofe. He had the battle fever on.
