Probably more important is keeping our general momentum flowing. Agree. We played well and with 10 men. Need to find a way to keep hold of the mall as that is Morelos big strength. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

An alternative would be Arfield who I think would do very well as a link up man and is equally good at finishing, you just lose the pace. Arfield may be the better option but it's all down to how the game is going to be played. Maybe, but I just think the role is rather specific. A winger could do the job but it's not the same; having pace and finishing is not enough if they are not used to the movements and positioning. Arfield's a no go, for me; he's an 8, not a forward. A false 9 may be a middle way, but that is a different way of playing, putting more emphasis on the wingers. I agree, it depends on how we want to approach it. It's a tricky one. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 13,637 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I think it's fair to say Sadiq won't see much first team action at Rangers. With Morelos and Lafferty out for the semi, I'd play Middleton up front. His pace is scary, he has his head screwed on and he can certainly score. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFK-1 1,675 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I’m not entirely sure what the manager means when he says Sadiq has to get better. Is he saying he’s still not fit enough? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,247 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Middleton, Kent and Grezda can play through the middle too, and I reckon we will survive one game without a "natural striker" ... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
