Marco Rose in awe of ‘brave’ Rangers ace Alfredo Morelos
Borussia Dortmund manager Marco Rose has hailed Rangers ace Alfredo Morelos ahead of their Europa League second leg clash.
The Gers will be looking to advance into the next round at Ibrox after taking a 4-2 advantage last time out in Germany.
Rose is a big fan of the Columbian but has urged him to stop scoring ahead of Thursday’s (February 24) meeting.
“He’s a good player. He’s physically strong and knows how to use his body. He knows where the goal is, he has good movement and he is brave.” Rose said as per Rangers Review.
“He is not so tall but he is very brave and he was very difficult for our defenders to defend last week.
“I like his style and his mentality and he is scoring. We saw it in the league, we had prepared for these games, and I hope on Thursday he will not have such a good day.
“He deserves this record but [on Thursday] he should stop scoring more!”
Fantastic form
Morelos was dearly missed when he was away on international duty and he has more than lived up to the expectation on his shoulders since his return.
The Gers look like a different team when he plays, he is an absolute animal up front.
He can do absolutely everything which is why Rose has continuously warned his players of the striker’s danger.
They struggled to deal with him in the first leg and the Bears ran riot because of that so hopefully there is more of the same in the return fixture.
Not only will the talisman be looking to book Rangers into the next round of the Europa League, he is also looking to break records which will give him that added motivation – as if he needs it.
Fingers crossed the Gers can see out the tie and continue this brilliant cup run.
