Reading that Morelos might be made available for sale and an offer made for Cummings. Hope not, I think Cummings is not up to it. I like Morelos pace and fight-hes only 20 and if we could get an intelligent experienced striker to hold the ball up and help him then I feel he could knock in 20 + goals a season.



10 May 2018 21:55:44
I think Cummings is getting a lot of stick for no reason. He’s never had a fair crack at it and he isn’t playing in a system that works for him. He needs someone alongside him upfront that can hold the ball up and feed him the ball. When he’s up against two centre halfs on his own he’s no chance.
I actually think when him and Morelos have played together they haven’t worked well because Cummings has been the one playing off Morelos when it should be the other way around.



10 May 2018 22:03:32
Would be disappointed if we sign Cummings really don't see what the big fuss is about with him and am hope Gerard will have his own strikers in mind which are of better quality than Cummings.



10 May 2018 22:40:50
Morelos is interesting. He is either very good at times or rank rotten, no in between. He frustrates me at times when he is greedy and selfish and the amount of times he gets caught offside is annoying.

On the other hand is gives defenders a physical battle and has explosiveness to shift his body at important moments. It is in him to make the difference in tight games.

The conundrum is he misses too many guilt edge chances to be a striker but doesn’t have the vision to be a number 10, so where will he fit in should new arrivals come through the door.

Personally if there is a good offer on the table (not a rip off like Barrie McKay) then take it but if not hold onto him because there is value in there and maybe SG and his team can get it out of him.



10 May 2018 23:13:40
I've not really been that impressed with Cummings but to be fair he hasn't had any kind of run in the team. On the plus side I thought he did well when he came on on Tuesday. Can't play up on his own like Morelos but in the right system, who knows? I suppose his staying or going will depend on the system Stevie G likes to play



11 May 2018 00:04:27
I think Morelos could be a great player, when he grows up, I also like Jason Cummings totally different type of player and I believe they could play well together, although I don’t see Gerrard playing with 2 up front, I think it will be a main striker with 2 wide men and an attacking mid supporting through the middle.



11 May 2018 00:07:25
Cummings and Morales, neither good enough get rid



11 May 2018 00:30:37
Morelos is tired and short of confidence.

Remember that he did not have a summer break before he joined us and has played almost every week.

A break and a proper pre-season will see him hit the goal trail again.

I’d sell him for 10m but not much less



11 May 2018 07:47:16
DK17. How can Morelos be tired when he is only 20? I like Morelos but he should have scored twice as many goals this season. The notion of Peter Crouch, as someone rumoured on here yesterday, signing for us on a one or two year deal would be interesting. Crouch and Morelos or Crouch and Cummings. The big man would set up some chances score a few of his own.



11 May 2018 11:50:58
Cummings hasn't had a chance but his goals to games ratio is as good as if not better than Morelos
Morelos needs to grow up and fast he's like a petulant child and is a liability too fast to get involved in needless altercations too easily wound up by opposing players he fall for it every time



11 May 2018 14:31:33
I honestly don’t know where the Morelos has pace has come from! When in a game does he run past anyone or catch a ball played in behind? He’s got no pace and doesn’t look fit, either that or it’s his big petted lip slowing him down. If we get a 3m or 4m offer I’d punt him.



10 May 2018 18:33:18
Barrie McKay could be worth going back in for.



10 May 2018 19:08:26
Not good enough or consistent enough for us.



10 May 2018 19:16:24
One good performance in 6. Not what we need.



10 May 2018 19:17:51
You kidding he cany cross the ball tbh think he was cap in spl



10 May 2018 19:36:36
It just shows how far we've fallen when some traumatised fans think McKay is the level of player we should be aspiring to. He's woeful!



10 May 2018 20:27:12
Don't want McKay back. His attitude is awful. Thinks he's a superstar



10 May 2018 20:27:37
Wasn’t he once rated at £6 million and going to Red Bull?



10 May 2018 20:57:10
Nah sorry, wouldn’t like to see him back. His attitude is chronic.



10 May 2018 23:24:10
Barrie is most certainly good enough when you consider who has been playing in his position. His confidence must be shot to pieces at not even making the Forest squad. I was talking to a Forest fan the other week who thought he had been playing well and was suddenly axed by the new manager when there were four or five others who shoukd have been dropped first. Obviously the new guy's plan worked as they have been rank for weeks after looking a good bet to make the playoffs. I've always thought Barrie was a very good player who, with the right manager, would sparkle. I even remember Rodgers singling him out for special praise after he had ripped Lustig a new one during an OF game. Wingers are typically inconsistent. I remember the great Davie Cooper having some stinkers during his career. Barrie definitely worth a punt imo



11 May 2018 09:06:52
Mckay will end up a sheep or jambo



10 May 2018 15:41:36
Read an article in the Daily Record and it suggests bookies odds on the following players.

Fernando Torres 7-2
Pepe reina 9-2
Maxi Rodriguez 5-1
Balotelli 8-1

Imagine even getting one of these players. I can't see any of them signing what so ever but the fact its actually being suggested is brilliant.

As much as its crazy to think. it's still brilliant for the club being associated with these big names wether they happen or not.

Hopefully we will attract atleast one big name in the summer through the new gaffers contact list.

Let's go!



10 May 2018 17:10:33
All these players mentioned are just bookies stirring the pot. SG will make own decisions irrespective bookies odds.



10 May 2018 17:32:42
Balotelli would be the only one I’d be interested in. Has sell on value. He’s mad enough to come here’s but it’s all a pipe dream.



10 May 2018 17:49:50
Arnold Schwarzenegger's a big name 😂😂😂



10 May 2018 17:54:53
I enjoy when us fans on here post who we'd like to sign (as long as they are realistic) but the press at this stage are guessing. After June1st. ok its maybe fair but unless they have info I wish they'd shut up.



10 May 2018 22:40:27
Rogie red, i will give you that one mate haha.

When i posted this i never for one minute suggested we would be signing any these players.

Just after all these years of brutal players coming in its brilliant to see big names and rangers in the same sentence irrespective of them being accurate transfer targets.

The fact Gerrard has the pull to bring in a big name must get you lot buzzing! . I gaurentee he's going to pull an absolute belter right out the bag.

It won't be a Torress that's mental to even think that he will come to Glasgow.

I'm thinking more of a scott Sinclair type player who would never have came up here if Brenda wasnt the manager.

McArthur - Ings - Skrtl - Mignolet

I will say i don't rate Mignolet in EPL but he would be class up here.


LET'S GO!



10 May 2018 12:56:27
Not a rumour however I'd like to see Oli McBurnie sign for us. Him and Cummings up front would offer us more options. I see him in the papers today and is the right age and a recent internationalist who would fit the profile for me. Looking forward to the transfer window opening.



10 May 2018 16:53:58
Wouldn’t touch Oli McBurnie with a barge poll! Not good enough and we can’t sign him as he’s a Gers fan? 🇬🇧🇬🇧



10 May 2018 17:09:31
Who would you like us to sign yately



10 May 2018 17:13:56
With the arrival of Gerrard, if we started next season with cummings and mcburnie I would be totally pi$$ed off!



10 May 2018 17:26:41
Strike force of them 2 would see us finish 4th. Terrible idea. don't want either of them at ibrox to be honest. Cummings puts in very little effort when he plays. If your lazy u need to back it up with being prolific. That he is not.



10 May 2018 17:34:10
Could work. Big target man and a guy who can finish given a chance. The two of them might just work out together plus they are both early 20’s. Under the right guidance they could develop well.



10 May 2018 19:50:44
McBurnie is excatly what we need, big strong with a great work rate, I think he’ll stay at Swansea now they’re relegated.



10 May 2018 12:38:06
Danny ings is way down pecking order at liverpool think he would bang them in up here.



10 May 2018 13:37:40
How is he way down the pecking order?



10 May 2018 13:58:40
Sturridge was shipped out on loan before him and he played in the Champions League Semi Final? Will likely be on the bench in the final? And that is down the pecking order? He is also on too much money.



10 May 2018 14:35:36
Well i meant he's not getting a lot of 1st team game time my apologies only a suggestion jeez



10 May 2018 14:36:20
How much is he on ldm17



10 May 2018 15:02:48
60,000 a week and under contract until 2020



10 May 2018 21:59:12
For all the slagging Cummings has taken on here think bit unfair considering amount of game time he's had. Bit difficult to truly judge yet.



10 May 2018 11:30:32
Hope we have a place for jimmy nicholl at the club you can tell in his interviews the passion he has foe the club.



10 May 2018 12:23:48
Agreed RTID. JN has massive experience in playing and managing etc. Passionate about the Gers but more importantly has ability. Knows the league/ players. excellent contacts in NI and rest of UK U would think. Defo.



10 May 2018 14:01:15
I know Jimmy personally and you are right he absolutely loves the club but I don’t see him staying past the weekend. I certainly wouldn’t have him in charge of our youth and I cannot see him as part if SG’s set up. I think he’ll leave with everyones thanks for his help.



10 May 2018 09:31:57
Papers saying Mark Allen has opened talks with Nottingham Forest regarding permanent deal for Cummings.

Would actually like him to sign, I don't think he is the Messi so many fans believe him to be, but give him a proper run in the team and he will score you goals.



10 May 2018 10:02:05
Yeah I agree Bear.



10 May 2018 10:34:14
Undecided on Cummings. Really want to like him and get on the side of the fans who think he has got something but most times I have seen him he has been sparse and ineffective.

Glad to be proved wrong but don’t think we need better.



10 May 2018 10:38:22
If the price was right and if we were going to give him a decent run in the team along with a partner as he is rank rotten up top himself then I think the deal is a no brainer



10 May 2018 12:34:36
Since joining in January he’s scored 6 goals. Morelos has scored 5 in this time with way more game time. With more game time and a partner up top he’ll shine. Think we should be looking for a big target man to partner alongside him.



10 May 2018 13:54:27
agree with the comments on needing to play 2 up front so depends on what sg system



10 May 2018 18:12:34
Apart from the championship with HIVs, the guy has no real scoring record to speak of, is lazy and has little intelligence when it comes to forward play. Nowhere near what we should be looking at.



10 May 2018 20:42:06
Burnbank I tend to agree with you. I've really wanted Cummings to do well but I think we could do better. I know he's not had much game time but he has disappointed me when he's had chance . The goals he has scored for us most of them were against ayr and falkirk championship teams.



10 May 2018 22:56:41
Straight swap deal I’m hearing. Foderingham out Cummings in.



10 May 2018 08:40:07
Morning guys, I was reading on the BBC webpage today that McGregor may still stay at Hull City. I thought he was a done deal, is this true do you think. Very happy with last nights result due to the hate mobs predictions being wrong again.



10 May 2018 09:35:18
Hi irv, yeah great to see the mob wrong . No such thing as a done deal 'till signed in stone.



10 May 2018 10:31:57
Wooly what is your profile picture?



10 May 2018 16:50:20
Hi Pos looks like a white horse to me. What can you see.



10 May 2018 16:50:31
Gay guy on a horse obviously.



10 May 2018 23:34:40
Roy Rodgers?

{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new article entitled, Review Of The Day 10th May 2018



09 May 2018 23:27:54
Just noticed mcorie and morelos are both suspended for Sunday. Big loss mcorie especially.



10 May 2018 09:19:46
This will give rossiter a chance to come in and shine



10 May 2018 09:43:21
Lost hope for Morelos Jerome, he has turned out to be a flash in the pan goal scorer and an immature bad tempered liability, how many times has he nearly been sent off . That's just my opinion though.
