Morrison today?

Couldn't make the game today as I'm currently in Poland for weekend. But was just wondering if Morrison's return was coincidental with the clean sheet?

Definitely! had an excellent game, he even went running up the wing with the bal, as he has not played for a while, he probably though he was a winger, not a center half :laughing6:

I have been quite a staunch Morrison critic in the past but he is really winning me over.

Was fantastic today and the whole team looked more comfortable and organised with him at the back.

Great performance by him - long may it continue! :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

I don't know how it works but when he plays the whole jigsaw at the back seems to work perfectly, he's become a rock for us not just his play but how it all fits together.

Reminds me of Hudson who our fans would not give a chance to and was ridiculed for a long time.

I would never ridicule a player but have got to be honest in discussions ive questioned Morrisons abilty and leadership skills. Hes proven me completely wrong. Hes having a tremendous season

We have missed Morrison more than anyone, when he plays he allows Bamba and Manga to get forward and support the mid field. IMO man of the match today.

I've always liked him and have never slayed him. Glad hea getting the praise doesn't seem to be a injury prone player so hopefully stays fit for rest if season

He’s been immense this season his relationship with Bamba is second to none, when he went on that run first half of the game you could see it was to get the other lads moving! Class act my worry is the fight we’ll have to keep hold of him if we don’t go up

Morrison, Bamba and Manga are all top class at this level

Bruno and Bamba make the odd howler (but which defender doesn't)

Morrison in my opinion is not as talented as the other two, but for whatever reason whenever he plays we always defend better as a unit.

It's because he's a presence and wins loads in the air and obviously has a lot more organisational skills that credited for
