Then you are an absolute FKN idiot big man.He should go to Porto. I'd rather go to Portugal than Germany.

1) Certainly and will do again.
2) yes but a LOT is down to victimisation from referees thanks to the mhedia.
We have a young guy thousands of miles from home being mercilessly hounded by the press which cannot help his mental strength.
Has it not been discussed before and they’re not due anything like 10% (I think £14m far too low anyway- no chance Watkins is double the player Morelos is)No chance as £1.4m would go to HJK.....so a non starter.
But he's English going to the premier league. English tax. Just how it is. We all know Alfie is easily worth that but the English clubs know SPL pedigree counts for nothing.Has it not been discussed before and they’re not due anything like 10% (I think £14m far too low anyway- no chance Watkins is double the player Morelos is)
Utter pishThis is bollocks. His poor disciplinary record is his own fault, not the media's fault.
Sorry but he has been targeted,how many times have you seen players remonstrate with referees and get waved away.Alfie only has to give an ironic smile and will be carded.This is bollocks. His poor disciplinary record is his own fault, not the media's fault.
Been living under a rock i see! There has been a concerted campaign to paint Alfie as a monster.This is bollocks. His poor disciplinary record is his own fault, not the media's fault.

The truth is somewhere in the middle.
Some ‘staunch’ posters in here will tell you Morelos is never ever to blame for his soft bookings - which is wrong.
Some naive posters in here will tell you Morelos whenever he is carded is to blame and is disrespecting the club and his team mates with the selfish bookings he picks up.
Morelos undoubtedly picks up stupidly soft yellows a lot because of his own actions but he also gets carded for aspects of the game the red will ignore from another player in the same game. And in the later incidents to ignore the media input into these bookings is daft but it’s also equally daft to ignore the reputation he also helped them build about him with his own moments of madness.
Away with your common sense - it has no place on a thread like this.The truth is somewhere in the middle.

What's clear is that Rangers has its price, for all the players, just like every other club. I admire the club standing it's ground in these situations more, and if the worse case scenario is a player staying then that, in this case our top scorer and someone who plays formidably in European competitions, is a worse case scenario I can happily live with.We’re not getting £20 Million unfortunately but keep believing.
Sorry, been away.Time on our side?
I can’t agree with that. He’s made clear he wants to move on.
If we don’t sell him in this window, his value drops in January IMO, because I don’t believe it’s likely he’ll recapture his form of 2019.
Some posters seem to think he’ll knuckle down to get his big move in January. It may well happen but the evidence so far doesn’t point to this.
Even if he ends up on the bench most weeks until January, teams will still take a punt on him in January but probably no more than £10m or so.
Ayer's a donkey, they will be lucky to get 8 for him.When you see Ajer getting a pricetag 'slapped on' of 15 million (I know WTAF) then at least 20 million is what we should expect and not a penny less. Other than that, the quicker he starts banging the goals in the quicker the move he seems to want will materialise.
They will over price him and he will leave on a free or 3/4mil and they would be robbing anyone prepared to pay thatAyer's a donkey, they will be lucky to get 8 for him.
He confirmed they bid but not the amount.They offered 16m. Unconfirmed if euros or sterling but confirmed by their chairman live on talksport that it was a figure of 16
White asked if it was true they bid 16m and he said yes.He confirmed they bid but not the amount.

Oh because the guy question's crazy refereeing decisions, gets booted up n doon the park, has wee fly slaps and kicks at him off the ball, away and bile yir heid.This is bollocks. His poor disciplinary record is his own fault, not the media's fault.
And yet when he came on at the weekend, I thought he looked really good and very committed. His effort was spot on. Players on here go from being a God one week to the antichrist the next.He’s been rotten in 2020 so he certainly isn’t our star man now.
Aye and never mind the blatant penalties for being toppled but receiving a yellow for diving, that’s his fault as well.Utter pish
Two sending offs rescinded but still referred too in the media as sending offs.Every.
game in that period virtually had a “Morelos cam” on sky/Bbc
Not saying he was totally blameless but to suggest
That it was all his fault is Bollocks

Hat trick tomorrow would see him become our all-time European goalscorer on 22 goals. Quite an achievement but with the amount of games in Europe nowadays is probably twice the amount of games we used to play.

Yes, Jan and Feb he wasn't good...but who in the team was?? In the here and now he's an asset in the search for 55..that will be his legacy and his price will reflect that when he does move on.
Wife...get me another beer
when he came on at the weekend I thought we looked a far better and more dangerous team.
As someone said above, I hope he stays for the season and leaves with the league medal and a big %^*& your to everyone in Scottish football.
Id be amazed if Ally’s European appearances aren’t well above Alfie’s SB ?
I am unsure on the accuracy but from wiki it says 54 that being over about 15 seasons. Think only 3 of them we never qualified or he never took part. 87/88 He was joint top European Cup scorer with 4 goals. One of the players he shared the spot with was none other than Georgi Hagi.
I have no idea how many games Alfie has played in Europe for us but It must be around the 30 mark?
All Alfie's goals are from the Uefa cup but Supers are spread across a of Uefa, cup winners cup, European cup and Champions League.
Agree. The team was more coherent & flowed better when Morelos was on.
This is bollocks. His poor disciplinary record is his own fault, not the media's fault.
Concerted media campaign bought into and, in parts, repeated by a good few on this forum.middle ground doesn’t work. There has been a concerted media campaign against Morelos for almost all the time he has been here. Whether the motive is pro-scum, anti-Rangers or just selling newspapers and phone-ins is irrelevant t. The campaign has been Xenophobic, bitter, unreasonable and deeply insulting. Anyone who thinks otherwise is missing the point. Morelos has still not injured any other pro or put in a particularly bad challenge.
I agree systematically racially abused for last few years and victimised Saturday proved he’s viewed different. The DR back page headline was utterly disgustingI really cannot understand how a Rangers fan can make that comment.
Fingers twisted... Fu©k all gets crossed in this house.He's just very obviously a better footballer than Barker. We really need to hope he gets his head right and wants to be part of this team this year. Fingers crossed.

To be fair we play against more dross in the early rounds now than we did back in Ally's day.
Thats not to knock Alfie's European record though which is absolutely outstanding.
His weight loss has been unbelievable, looks slimmer than Tav and Arfield now somehow
I love Alfie as much as anyone but even I have to say he did look a bit chunky and unfit. He was hardly ready to be bed bound he was that fat but he was carrying a few extra pounds, even for a naturally broad guy.Probably because he wasn't overweight in the first place
The level of opposition won't be thoughId be amazed if Ally’s European appearances aren’t well above Alfie’s SB ?

I think he has gotten over the Lille saga and noticed that lack of effort won't help his chances of moving either. By the sounds and looks of it he has been putting in a power of work and his performance at the weekend showed it.
