On Sean Morrison proving his critics wrong


NEIL WARNOCK:

"Fortunately for Sean, I wasn’t one of them and I don’t think he’s worried about anything else. You’re bound to read papers early doors but if your manager believes in you, it’s a big plus really."

I thought he would go to Sheffield Wednesday, especially when they upped the price to £5 million or something like that.

I said to him, you’ll get a lot more money than here and a longer contract, I said I don’t want you to go but I can’t stop you going.

He come to me and just said, ‘I think we have something special here gaffer, I’d like to stay if it’s alright with you’. I said, ‘it’s alright with me son, yeah.’.

That was at the start of the season and I think a lot of players would have gone, if I’m honest, chased the money.

I didn’t recommend Sheffield Wednesday to him, being a United-ite, but I didn’t stand in his way and I thought that was a crucial time.

"When he said “I’m captain and I think we have something special coming on here”, I thought that was special and that’s why I’ve supported him because not just on the field of play, there’s a lot that goes off the field as well and Sean is right on top of that. There’s a good group off the field and that always helps."

Our Captain is slowly becoming one of my fav City players, love his attitude and the bond he has with the team and Warnock, great to hear he turned down offers because he wanted to remain with us.

Thank you Sean :bluescarf:

Same - I said this on a thread last week. He's matured into a great player :ayatollah:
I hope we can keep him here long term.

Aye mate I hope so too, he rarely has a bad game and always puts his body on the line, likes to score a goal, one of the best defenders in this league :thumbup:

Some wanted him gone at the start of the season too. MADNESS!!
I've always rated him but this season he's arguably been the most important player in the squad :thumbright:

After the game he always leads the players around the pitch to applaud the fans with genuine enthusiasm :bluescarf:

His celebration after the Boro goal told it all really. He was in Gibsons face and celebrated like mad. :ayatollah:

I questioned the wisdom of both making him captain and of not selling him to Wednesday. Genuinely pleased to admit I called it wrong and eat some humble pie.

Superb player and a player of the season has to be between him and Junior surely (With Ralls and Etheridge highly commended) :ayatollah:

Fair play to Morrison, I'm always so happy when I see his name on the team sheet. The best defender in the Championship and a true leader!
