If Lafferty is unavailable we need to re-think how we've been playing. Hitting the ball won't work whether it's Defoe or any of the others.
It doesn’t work when lafferty plays either

Has to be Arfield for me. Great finisher and good at linking up play. I’m amazed so many would play Kent as a no 9, his finishing and heading is poor.
If Lafferty and Defoe both out, has to be Middleton or Kent through the middle and the other on the left.I don’t rate Arfield particularly highly as a finisher.
Plus he isn’t fast enough to play as a striker.
Look at Kent’s finishes against Hamilton, Livingston and St Mirren - all very nice.
I think one or both will be fit to play.Big blow if both are out.
Young Dapo could be a wild card. If he's good enough, he's old enough. If Laff or Defoe can start then give them an hour and then see what the kid's got.Put a young lad in. Sometimes think we are too hesitant to play them.

I understand that he has been called into the matchday squad !
Morelos not being able to play has nothing to do With luckOur luck is utter shite.
Defoe clearly done some thing at a Rugby Park mid 2nd half, on that absolutely abomination of a plastic pitch. Morelos and Rangers have been cheated and Lafferty is, well Kyle Lafferty. An injury prone forward.
Will take any win tomorrow.
Gerrard has said that he isn't ready to start but is definitely ready for a cameo performance.
Now that would be a gamble!There’s no way id risk Defoe , a hamstring would be disaster at this point .
Play Middleton wife and Kent through the middle .
Remember Aluko up frontKent through the middle?
Maybe head games? He did say both were doing light training today, so hopefully one or both might make it tomorrowWhy tell them at this point.
Mental
Jesus christ.
Possibly a chance for one of the young boys to come in?
Tomorrows game just got a lot tougher if that's true.
Is Defoe defo doubtful?
