for all the reasons I put down earlier in the thread.
With respect mate if anyone thinks beale will play alfredo as a ten or even behind a striker in any way then I would say they need their head looked at
Colak, Morelos & Roofe in same team?

Are we trying to go for the slowest forward line ever?
They all have different qualities but they all lack a real burst of pace. You only put all 3 on when you are chasing a game not from the start.

You’re subliminal dig there is on the wrong guy, bud.
I’m forever being criticised for my “the professionals know best” attitude.
Of course “Mr Beale” will know best and there is no doubt that Morelos is a top link up player but that, to me, is a bit different to being a number ten.

At home to most teams in the league we can afford to squeeze in more forward thinking players. We've all been complaining about 2 holding midfielders under Gio so it would be good to see more attackers on the pitch.
Remember they don't need to all stick to rigid positions. There would be rotation during the match.

He started as a midfielder and he is more suited to that than Roofe or Colak. If Beale is talking about playing the three of them then is it outrageous to suggest he may be thinking of Alfie as a 10?for all the reasons I put down earlier in the thread.

Wouldn't be my choice, just trying to second guess Beale's comments.
Woah, mate, there was no dig there, if it sounds like it, it was definitely not intentional. So apologies if I sounded like I was being an arse.
Going round in circles here slightly I would say mate.
Thankfully beale is not daft enough to even consider for a second to play morelos as a 10.
Lets hope that he(alfredo) can get his head down, try to get some proper fitness and his hunger back and try to get back into the team as this can only benefit us all.
Alfredo has been my favourite Rangers player of the past 3-4 years however I think his time at Rangers has to come to an end and he will leave in january/more likely the summer....barring a comeback of lazarus proportions that I just dont think he has it in himself anymore to pull it off.

Red Bull Salzburg type 4-4-2 with Roofe and Kent as number 10's and Colak and Morelos up front.
Can't really see how that would work for us since the main idea behind theirs was high energy, workrate and pressing. Having Roofe in that team and, based on this season, Tav on the wing would hinder the system.

What about a home against teams who sit in? Could maybe work then as we wouldn't be able to use pace to get in behind them anyway

It read like it, to me anyway, but don’t fret, if it wasn’t, it’s me to apologise.
If it were, I’m well used to it!
It won’t be the last time.

What about 6-7 games in a row.
I think what the poster you were replying to was saying is he's injury prone and is not going to suddenly change. He's finished so let's stop wishing on a once upon a time.
The OP says Beale spoke about having Roofe, Morelos and Colak in the same team. I think we are all trying to work out what the shape of the team would be if he did this.
It's as good a discussion as we are going to get while this pish in Qatar is on.

Fucking hell mate, even Ardiles wasn’t that bold at Spurs and he played a 3-2-5

Goals win matches, the more goal scorers you have on the better chance you have.
Excited to see the balance Beale is working on

I would like to see Roofe play in behind a front 2 of Morelos & Colak… for 30 minutes at least or until he gets injured.
Then we have others can come in and step into that role: Tillman, Hagi, maybe even Kent.

The part I liked most about your hypothetical X1 was there was none of the over-the-hill gang in midfield selected. Harsh I suppose but there you go.
Obviously injuries are going to hamper the manager from the off but the midfield as we know it has to become a thing of the past and all but phased out by season's end.
please tell me when the last time he played 2-3 games for us was and the title is history, this harping back to when he done something a long time ago is utterly pointless, he's required to be fit NOW and he never is.
Am just trying to imagine how Beale would fit the three - Morelos, Roofe and Colak - into his team. It was Beale who suggested playing them together according to the OP.
Against SPL dross - maybe worth a try and see what happens.
F**k me
Never knew that was your scene but OK - can I have your number please?

if you watched Brazil last night they were basically a 424 in possession, maybe MB's thinking at home against weaker sides
