Mr Brownstone 0 Posted January 30, 2013 So Michael Bailey thinks he''s off to Leeds: Michael Bailey @michaeljbailey Millwall wanted Morison, but it''ll be Leeds barring late mishaps; with Becchio to ncfc. I heard £ to City inc in deal, but may have changed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Graham Humphrey 13 Posted January 30, 2013 That''s a really good deal for us I think. Can''t see why anyone would complain about this one especially seeing as we get more cash to hopefully put towards another signing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 3,632 Posted January 30, 2013 There does seem some confusion about whether it is a straight swap or there is some £ involved (last night Leeds fans thought they were getting a couple of £m, which is obviously rubbish), but IMO it seems good business whatever. Fact is, Moro was becoming more ''isolated'' from supporters and his form has been pretty poor this season despite being given several chances, so it made sense to ship him on; Becchio is untried at this level but has a good goal ratio (and Leeds highest earner who they wanted to keep), so as back-up seems a sensible buy.All told,everyone seems happy and with Becchio and Kamara we keep all our £ intact for a ''bigger'' buy....hopefully....

Icecream Snow 761 Posted January 30, 2013 I think there''s always been a persistent foot injury with Morison that meant he struggled to cope since last Christmas. Becchio is untried, but it''s not a bad deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mason 47 1,373 Posted January 30, 2013 As far as I can see, we''re getting a pretty good Champs striker who is having a really in-form season for an out-of-sorts lower Prem striker for no loss.Could be just what we need to punch those few extra goals in to secure us for this season before bigger and better in the summer.

rock bus 850 Posted January 30, 2013 Feel a bit sorry for Morison - just hasnt worked out for him here and the fans have just never really taken to him.I would not be surprised if he signs for Leeds and goes on to prove lots of the doubters here wrong.Sometimes players and clubs just seem to fit and sometimes for no apparent reason it just doesnt workGood luck to him and hope deal works out well for all in the long run Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
