What’s that old saying.? You’ll miss me when I’m gone.
A sensible summation.First half he was below par. Some of his attempts at lay offs are painful to watch and the two chances he had should've been buried.
Much better second half, link up play was good and the goal was him at his rampaging best but...utter stupidity to get involed with Griffiths.
I still think his time at Rangers had ran its course and for the good of everyone we should cash in and give both parties a fresh start. We know how the script goes with Alfie. We've watched it for over 4 years.
He'll still contribute in fits and bursts when he's here but the 2019 Morelos who was a one man wrecking ball won't be coming back
I am just being realistic on the price for him. Can't see anyone paying £10m+ for him at all. If we do then I will stand corrected. But I would be happily stunned.He hasn't been in squads recently but they have a lot of strikers. Baffles me that you'd accept £8m/£10m for him. He's by far our best striker at leading the line.
The comment was more to do with how he was sticking up for his teammates which we havnt seen that much ofWatched that incident again. Big Joe reacted to the foul and was intent on getting to Griffiths. Alfie got there first. Grabbing Griffiths by the throat might not have been the wisest decision but it didn't look particularly forceful or aggressive. In fact I think he might just have been trying to get between Griffiths and Aribo because Joe could have been in real trouble for retaliation otherwise. A couple of seasons ago I doubt Alfie would have been as controlled.
Not sure why£8m? Don’t care if I get banned for this, that’s one of the most idiotic things I’ve read on here
So £1m less than the highest we’ve ever been offered for him?Comfortably £15m if we actively pushed to sell him. He's 25 years old, he's only just about to hit his peak.
He's got 10 in 25 if you want to come into real life and read his stats as a whole. 3 in his last 3 games under gio. Take it you can read the future and tell us all how his form will be from here on in? You don't know that he won't run riot in the latter half of this season. Ye just seem to want him gone whether it's a merited fee or not.So £1m less than the highest we’ve ever been offered for him?
Despite the fact he’s been rotten all season, has 5 league goals to his name and was poor for large spells of last season
It’s not football manager, it’s real life we’re talking about
His record breaking goals in europe will be more noticed then your constant hate for the guySo £1m less than the highest we’ve ever been offered for him?

Explain to me why when at the peak of his form against Porto etc, we’ve still only ever had 1 concrete bid for him from Lille?His record breaking goals in europe will be more noticed then your constant hate for the guy
It’s the consistency for me good one game rotten the next two he needs to start doing it every week or it’s pointless, his spreading of the play can be flawless at times then most of the other times he’s a liability in possession that struggles to do simple two yard passes you can guarantee that Morelos will just kick the ball out of play at least once every game it’s frustrating. Would be looking to sell in January he genuinely isn’t worth the hassle anymore
Yes, I ignored those. So you don't have a problem with his terrible passes causing our players to be potentially injured, or being countered when our defence is out of position. Tav gave him a good look after that shite pass, as if to say, are you trying to get me killed? He made another lax pass to Kamara that almost got him clattered.How many good passes did he make or are you determined to ignore those? Put Sakala in twice but you don't hear many complaining that he missed two really good chances. Must be because Fashion smiles a lot.
Did you see how much Celtic got for Edouard? You're talking about a striker with a 1 in 2 record, an international with major tournament experience and 25. If he played for another club we'd be talking about how he's out of our price range and we couldn't get him
Apart from the penalty he took that beat Hibs.The good news is you’ll get consistency from Roofe.
He’s been shite his last 6 starts.
Don't say that. Alfie is not to be critisised.Edouard had just finished top scorer in the league 2 years on the trot. Morelos seems to have downed tools and piled on weight for the last 2 years.
Be lucky to get £10m now.How much do you think a team would pay for him on his current form (and form for the last 12-18 months tbh)?
At his absolute peak Lille offered £16m. I don't see us getting anywhere near that now.
Can't see the forest for the trees you say...Yes, I ignored those.

Keep your head in the sand then. You're the type that can't see the forest for the trees. No offence, of course.
You seem to have a go at roofe quite often when he has the same goal ratio as Morelos 1 in 2. Also roofe was our best striker last season in the year we won the he leagueThe good news is you’ll get consistency from Roofe.

Easter Road midweek was a bit more like the old Morelos?Last 2 games has been a bit more like the old buffalo. Not there yet but I'm sure Gio will get more out of him.
What an absurd take on the situation, so if we don’t get 15-20m we must keep him untilWaghorn went for £9m and prices have only gone up since. Is he worse than Edouard? Ajer? He’s the 5th top scorer in Europa League history and our top ever scorer in Europe. If you aren’t getting £15-20m for him then you might as well keep him - after all, he is our European top scorer of all time and only in his mid-20s.

he leaves on a free? He’s on 30k a week and his numbers over the past two seasons don’t merit that wage.
We need to start player trading and this should be starting with Morelos and Kent because their contracts are running down.
He won’t sign another one because he won’t get a higher wage than the one he’s currently on. His contract extensions and wage rises was when he was right on the top of his game in 2019.Who says he’s leaving on a free? Morelos has signed more contracts than anyone in the squad.

He’s also said on numerous occasions he wants to go to a better league to help him become the main striker for Colombia.

Since Morelos signed he’s had long goal droughts of 8 games, 9 games and another 9 games in 3 of his 5 seasons.
