Former Rangers striker Andy Gray, has had his say on Alfredo Morelos, as quoted by the Daily Record.
Gray spent just a solitary season at Ibrox towards the back end of his career.
He forged a long career south of the border, though, and knew the way to the back of the net.
With 29 goals, Alfredo Morelos has been more prolific this season than Gray at his peak.
However, the 2017 signing hasn’t impressed the beIN Sports pundit and Sunday’s red card was the final straw.
“I’d sell him”, claimed Gray, as quoted by the Record. “I know it’s an easy thing to say but I’d seriously have to think about selling him.”
“He cost Rangers again. He’s scored 29 goals this season – against who? Not Celtic.
“Not in the games that matter because he’s been sitting in the dressing room by himself and with his thoughts. Listen, I think Morelos is semi-talented. But where has he been in the games we have lost?”
Verdict:
Of course, Gray has a point here. There’s little doubt that Morelos has proven himself completely unreliable on many occasions this season.
Therefore, he is presenting Steven Gerrard with a transfer conundrum.
However, for Gray to label the Colombian ‘semi-talented’ as if he’s doing him a favour, is patently ridiculous.
In full flow, El Bufalo is the best the SPL has to offer and while he may have blown his chances of a big individual accolade, that’s purely down to his disciplinary problems. His talent and abilities are there for all to see.
