Lonely Bill Leckie once again attacks Morelos

STEVEN GERRARD was a threat to every team he played against.

He was the embodiment of the guy you hated in the other lot’s colours but would have given anything to see wearing yours.

Across 17 years, 504 games, 120 goals and nine trophies for Liverpool, plus 114 caps and 21 goals for England, he must have been an absolute swine to face across that white line.

Yet all he ever got from the opposition was respect.

And why? Because he was honest. Because he gave his lot. Because his first responsibility was always to his mates.

Because he radiated a love for his club, his city, his country and for the game.


So it’s baffling that a man who’s an ideal role model for every young pro should put himself out on a limb for a waster like Alfredo Morelos.

A waster? Yes, for me that’s what the Rangers striker is.

Someone blessed with wonderful talent, yet who spoils so much of the good work he does by slouching around like a spoiled, angry brat who hates his job.

He dives, he cheats, he lashes out at the kind of provocation 99 per cent around him laugh off, he celebrates in front of rival team’s fans, though he knows it’ll get him in trouble.
Then, when it all comes back to haunt him, he plays the victim. Or rather, he gets his manager to play it for him.
Morelos was given extra time off last week while Gerrard launched an attack on the mysterious forces he says want to drive the lad out of Scotland.
Sorry, Steven, but this is nonsense.
You’re an intelligent man, you’re a straight-talker and you’ve the potential to be a top, top gaffer, but you’re way off the mark on this one.
Because while you’re right that Morelos is a threat to these mysterious forces — aka Celtic — so were Ally McCoist, Brian Laudrup, Mark Hateley and plenty more, but no one tried to drive THEM out of the game.

Rangers star Morelos likes to play the victim says our man BillCredit: Reuters
Henrik Larsson, Chris Sutton, John Hartson were a pain in the backside for Rangers and Alan Shearer, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Dennis Bergkamp were all threats to your ambitions at Anfield, but no one tried to drive any of them out.
Why? Because, like you, they were decent guys who played the game the right way.
Like you, they were hard but fair, they could take a kick and come back for more.
Like you, they’d go to war for 90 minutes then shake hands at time up.
Morelos doesn’t tick any of these boxes. Neither did Luis Suarez, who you brought up as another example of someone who had no friends outside his club and who was railroaded to another country.
Suarez racially abused an opponent. He serially bit man-markers.
He always looked as if playing football was a chore rather than a pleasure — and that’s why he was so disliked — not because he scored goals.
Guys like Suarez get little respect from opponents because they don’t try to earn it.
Guys like him blame their own bad behaviour on the pressure others put them under.
And guys like him are not missed when they finally trudge away grumbling under their breath.
Sadly, that’s the way Morelos is headed.
With his Resting Bitch Face pout, his flailing elbows and snide off-the-ball kicks, the way he’d rather fall over to get a fellow player sent off than take a shot at goal, he seems hell-bent on making as few friends as possible in our game.
He’s not alone in this last one, of course. Roy Keane didn’t try to win popularity contests either, nor did the likes of Eric Cantona or Graeme Souness.


But what separates them from a Morelos is that they backed up the snarl with success. They led from the front, they were serial winners.
In real terms, meanwhile, this moody blue has done the square root of hee-haw.
He doesn’t have a winner’s medal, he hasn’t scored in an Old Firm game.
He has, however, let his team down through the antics which have seen him pick up seven red and 39 yellow cards in just over 100 starts.
When they come back from Dubai to reboot their season, he’ll be missing yet again.
It’s three games this time thanks to the stupidest sending-off yet — that dive when through on goal at Parkhead.
That moment, for me, said everything about him.
FOOTIE TRIBUTE Celtic and Rangers legends battle it out in charity game in memory of Glasgow rocker
It cemented him as everything the average fan hates about a certain type of modern player — the cynicism, the deviousness, the absence of joy.
Only he can change this. Only he can turn around the image the world outside Ibrox has of him.
Only he can put a smile on his coupon and learn to count to ten when he’s being wound up, only he can work out why he’d rather cheat than score.
Only he can earn the mega-money move we keep hearing big clubs are queueing up to offer.
That’s what Gerrard should be concentrating on right now, getting his goal machine’s head right, because that could end up being the difference between stopping nine in a row and facing up to stopping ten.
He should be pointing at Jermain Defoe as someone who’s been a threat wherever he’s gone for 20 years, yet who’s universally liked and admired.
He should be working overtime to turn a manchild into a man.
The fact that he would rather turn him into a martyr does neither of them any credit.

Im not going to give them the click. However i hope this shit stirring, victim blaming, lowest of the low scumbag rag, along with its fellow tabloid shiterag the Record, is called out by Rangers. Absolute scum "journalism"

And i hope the next time a Rangers fan is unfortunate enough to run into this fat waste of space, they punch his cunt in

He's the life and soul of the dressing room, the joker in the pack according to our manager. I know who I believe.

Scottish football really seems to fear this young genius (the only superstar performing north of the border).

WOW this piece is the worst of the lot.
 
Article is online, won't post a link to it obviously. There's some quotes below but surely we go after the Sun for this? Given it comes a week after they quoted an amateur psychiatrist and his thoughts on Morelos

The man was racially abused, and is being blamed for it

He is here to make friends with no cnt, apart from us. This is more of the foreigner has to follow our way or they can fck off!

He's a scumbag and the club should call this out for what it is.

What the %^*&? Surely Rangers should hammer them here. Disgusting 'journalism'.
 
Miserable? He looks anything but when hes clapping away on the bench to songs. If this is genuine rangers need to come out and take him to task. It's not just an attack on a player for his football. This is an attack on the player himself that cant be backed up. Not once has he said hes unhappy etc or anything he says in that article. Appalling tbh a journalist would come out with this drivel.

Day 15.

Up ye leckie ya paedophile supporting piece of shit.
We know you read here, you've quoted this forum in your columns.

You have said nothing about the child abuse at the noncedome, so you clearly condone it.

A 'journalist' who would rather supress a story than support the poor kids who were sexually abused.

What a disgusting vile waste of human flesh.
 
A young guy from one of the poorest areas in Columbia, leaves to go to the other side of the world to play in Finland. He works his way up to signing for Rangers and gets through a rough start with the whole country against him. He is now the top scorer in the league and the top scored in the group stages in europa league,scoring against the likes of Porto. He now plays for the national team and has set up a foundation to give back to his community and spread his good fortune. But none of that matters cos Bill Leckie thinks him a waster...fs
