I am with you there - sure Morrison looked ok but it doesn’t seem to last very long - besides an unemployed footballer is still unemployed Carl Sagan, r_wilcockson and brady1993 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather play Sibley. That's thing isn't it. Morrison is a talented player but is historically unreliable and we not only have Sibley but also Watson who's looked promising in that position.

Elwood P Dowd Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I would be concerned that once Morrison had a contract he would revert back to his normal “underperforming” self. I did like what I saw in the preseason games but would he be able to maintain his focus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave126 Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 Rooney must have seen enough in Morrison to have had him training with us for the last few weeks. Morrison wouldn’t have been triaining with us without reassurances that a contract would be on the table at some point. So whatever has Happened today just highlights yet again how much of a mess we really are in at the minute. I’ll continue to go to the games etc but I’m not going to lie…..I’m worried RoyMac5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Morrison wants to play (and to grab what is more than likely his last chance of playing at any sort of decent level), then quality wise he's a way better player than either Sibley or Watson at this point in their careers (possibly ever depending how they develop). If he's not committed, then he'll be a waste of a contract. Think we have to trust Rooney to decide what state of mind Morrison is in and whether we take that risk....

Probably yes but I wouldn't say he's way better at this point in his career, his talent at young age has never really properly manifested. Then when you factor in how Sibley or Watson could develop with a season of football and how historically unreliable Morrison has been then... I'm not going to lose too much sleep on missing out on him. Could have been a decent addition if you get his head right but better managers have tried and failed on that front.

rammieib Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 If there is any truth in him throwing his toys out the pram, then the previous million clubs he has failed at are still correct in their character assessments of him. I'll wait for more facts to come out, if they ever will, but is not a great start for him to react like this.
