Michael Beale seems to have shown his managerial inexperience again with Alfredo Morelos set to be a part of tomorrow’s clash against Celtic.
Ange Postecoglou‘s Hoops are champions and will visit their trophy-less rivals in the final derby of the season tomorrow at Ibrox.
Rangers have failed to lay a glove on Celtic so far this campaign, and a number of their players are likely to depart in the summer.
Morelos has already been confirmed to be leaving by his manager, in what were some pretty forthright comments last weekend.
As per the Daily Record, Beale said: “Morelos is moving on. I think you saw the difference in energy in the forward area when Morelos came on. And not in a positive way.
“We’ll need a focal point to the team, for sure.”
Today, Beale has told Sky Sports: “He’ll definitely be involved in the squad [tomorrow]. There’s no issue between me and Alfredo.”
Now, can you imagine Ange slamming one of our players publicly, announcing that he’s leaving the club, and then saying he’d be in the squad for a derby a week later?
No you can’t, because it wouldn’t happen.
Perhaps it is just Beale’s way of firing his player up. But it could have the opposite effect too.
Everyone knows Morelos is moving on. It will be very interesting to hear what kind of reception he receives if he does feature.
