26th of foot 5,829 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I watched half of today's game in a Glasgow pub, they surfed on a You Tube Russian link. I left at half time. Morelos was selfish, he lost his individual discipline because the collective discipline meant nothing to him. His team mates saved him from further humiliation. They appear to know the value of collective discipline(I understand Flannagan was also red carded, I cannot comment as I did not view the second half). Morelos should save the apologies, instead he must focus on a simple recurring behavioural trait. Today's game provided access to monies that have not been available to Rangers in eight seasons. The concept of the BIG picture does not register with Alfredo. I should be on an incredible high because my Club has been remorselessly kicked these last several years, and today's result is a real achievement. My anger will not subside because a continuance of such behaviour will highlight a weakness of leadership, that will be exploited. In my professional life, we parroted a mantra, 'no plan survives first contact'. I do not know how any objective appreciation can conclude a plan that includes the Columbian's current behaviour. Well done Rangers, a significant achievement was reached and should be applauded. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
les186 271 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 With the euphoria of the result I am inclined to forgive Morelos. I suspect his teammates will also forgive. I would have him on the bench for Sunday and play Lafferty. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's a problem for any team, whether it's a football team or any other. If he can't prove they can trust him between now and Christmas, he has to be sold no matter how good he is. A lack of trust, or perceived favouritism will eventually cause cracks in the dressing room and we can't afford that. Obviously I hope he can turn it around, but the odds are stacked heavily against him. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure he was sent off for kicking out not once but twice To say the players won't trust him is just garbage. You would think he had a record of being sent off. Jack's been sent off Double the amount of times just for us nevermind in his career. As Gerrard said he will apologize along with Flanagan and the team will remember he got them there and move on Idiotic behaviour from Morelos tonight and I am sure he is suitably embarrassed. Even though it was never a red and neither was Flanagan's Edited August 30, 2018 by trublusince1982 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's had similar episodes about four times this season. It's time to grow up or spend some time on the bench. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt he needs to grow up and cut out the idiocy but it was never a red card in a million years Absolutely should get a bollocking for kicking the ball away but he didn't get in the refs face or shout and ball he said one comment ten to twenty yards away from the ref that looked on replay like "shit". Flanagan did far more after his red card Replays also shows he didn't know he was booked as the ref showed him the original yellow behind his back.
