    1st one is a header off a corner kick

    2nd one isn't really a tap in, cross from Borna Barisic and he's positioned in the box all by himself with no one marking him.

    Morelos on the bench today.
    *Correction, Morelos is not even on the bench today.

    Could this mean he is going to a new league soon?

    Scottish press and fans are basically saying he is gone but it is all just speculation.

    Gerard must be really frustrated. Now in the moment of selling Morelos they should be praising him as a player and as a person. It's hard to keep supporting these idiots.

    I don't think he did. Wanting a transfer from a small club after a good year is a fairly common practice

    a fan cut his fking breaks to his car!!!!

    Yea he is the ass for wanting to leave that place

    if a Colombian fan did that to a foreign player in the Colombian league it would be world news. On how awful Colombians are.

    I think the unprofessional behavior Tio Nicci might be referring to is the fact he was left off the squad due to the manager saying his head was not in the right place for training and he did not do enough to earn a roster spot last week.

    That does not look good no matter how you spin it.

    Meh he could have pushed for a move last year but he didn't, he put his head down and played and didn't push to move in January. He's clearly head and shoulders above the level of the Scottish league but he did his best. It's time for them to let him leave, everybody praised James professionalism in how he dealt with Madrid and he paid a heavy price for not being more pro-active to get a move. These clubs leak stuff all the time to make them look better and a player look worse so that when he goes the fans are on their side.

    We do have a professionalism problem with players from time to time but in the summer in such a weak league after he did everything for a team for a couple years while staying focused is not a big issue for me. He didn't refuse to train, but clearly you're head should be elsewhere, if you get an injury right now you're very likely to lose out on a potential life changing transfer.

    If this were his first type of issue I may be inclined to agree with you.

    When someone has a reputation Morelos has though it only adds to the list of things the media, fans and other people see as being unprofessional and wrong.

    Even if he has earned the right to do what he is doing, the optics are very bad.

    If it gets him his move at a higher % vs missing it its probably easily worth it. Gerrard also went out of his way to praise Morelos and his professionalism on multiple occasions and now that Morelos interests may not be aligned with him his tone changed so its not exactly super credible in this instance.

    What has been said about his professionalism in his past is quickly forgotten when the media and social media focus on the now and what have you done for me lately. Commentators all over are saying not so nice things about him and his attitude within the moment and I cannot blame them for it.
    His behavior on the field has made many think he is just a petulant brat and he is only adding to that reputation by not having his head in the game/practice in this instance.

    Now, things may be patched up and he can score a hat-trick and all is forgotten within the volatile British / Scottish press but he should always try to be on his best behavior if he does not want to be marked up with a negative stigma wherever he goes.

    The smart teams are not going to pay attention to the noise and will evaluate him free from the soap opera of people who are paid to focus on drama and fans who obviously are driven by it. He's obviously got some behavioral issues at times in games and loses his temper, but he's got the talent and work ethic that backs much of it up. He didn't refuse to change, any player in the same situation will tell you its hard not to have your head turned and this season is compacted so there is less time to get a move done. He didn't say he pulled out, Gerrard made the decision, other issues in his past are much more serious and Gerrard himself came out and backed him as staying professional and working hard non stop so again this is most likely the normal back and forth of a small club losing their star.

    IT is former players who seem to be criticizing him a lot within the media so not everyone comes to the same conclusion you are coming to.

    I do hope what you are saying comes true and he moves on and has a fresh new start and some "smart" team uses his skills and abilities to be productive and ignores the noise.

    I somehow think it could go the other way if he does not get his head on straight no matter what the circumstances are or how smart a team is.
    The noise is there for a reason.

    Some of the noise is overblown no doubt and due to British racism, and the pre conceived notions are harming him more then is necessary. I do think he is a hot head that needs to learn to keep his emotions in check better on the field, we do have it seems a lot of players who get punished for that in foreign leagues. If he wasn't so talented he'd suffer, but I'd imagine a move is close and he's pushing for it which is probably smart.
