Yorkshire Canary 118 Posted August 3, 2013 2 good and well respected managers. Maybe Morison needs to have a good look at himself to see if he and his attitude has contributed to his situation Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
splutcho 173 Posted August 3, 2013 Obviously this is only one side of the story, but it seems fair enough really. I''d be pissed off if I''d waited 7 weeks for pre season just to be told I wasn''t needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Salopian 1 Posted August 3, 2013 Morison was an enigma - occasionally producing great goals - the one fired in on the run against Arsenal, and the lob from the edge of the area, but otherwise he could look very ordinary. I could not work him out, although others were suggesting that he couldn''t be bothered at times, and it is possible that he had some kind of attitude problem, perhaps over-valuing himself or perhaps needing more delicate management.

Yellowbeagle 0 Posted August 3, 2013 I cant see the problem with what he''s saying personally. He''s not knocking anyones character he''s just stating what''s happened. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tetteys Jig 830 Posted August 3, 2013 To be fair, he didn''t criticise Hughton. He just said he wasn''t in favour, fair enough. He got his chance and got injured. I''d imagine these days with fitness such a massive thing in foorball at the elite level, 1 little injury can take a good year to properly recover from. I think the move to Millwall will do him good.

havemyhowsonit 0 Posted August 3, 2013 He''s entitled to his opinion. But the real reason is...He''s just a lower championship quality player. Sooner he realises that the better. Hence millwall Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ncfc4eva 0 Posted August 3, 2013 I was at the Wigan game on his debut and for someone who was making their first appearance for a new club, in the premier league, I was shocked at how lazy and uninterested he looked. I don''t buy into the cr@p that it was ''just his style'' or anything like that, talent aside, he has an attitude which isn''t compatible with most clubs, he was bad news for us and hughton could see that, Becchio coming here was simply to get rid of Moro. Not surprised he''s ended up back at Millwall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kingsway 94 Posted August 3, 2013 Morrison seems to have a problem getting on with people and motivating himself all the time! When he was on the mood he was very good but when he didn''t quite feel up for it he was a waste of space! We were warned about this when he joined us! Shame cause he''ll look back when his playing days are finished and realise he could have done much more! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In fact he was very good up until January, it was the last season and a half which were mostly terrible.Against Wigan didn''t he chase a lost ball and then play it across the goal for Hoolahan to score our only goal? There was no problem with that Steve Morison, it was the Morison that became lazy and disinterested from January onwards. Personally I just think that he was out of depth and he knew it. Perhaps he is telling the truth about being unfit at Leeds and will do alright at Millwall. Playing for a small lower half Championship club is probably the level that he is suited to.

RvWs 4 year contract 0 Posted August 3, 2013 WBA last year...So f*cking lazy. Didnt chase anything that day. Infuriating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ellis206 0 Posted August 3, 2013 God some people talk utter tripe on here. By all accounts Morison was a popular member of the team and if you actually meet him, he''s a very nice guy. He also very good at Wigan on the first day so not sure what game you were watching? Just because a player doesn''t constantly chase down endless balls, doesn''t make him lazy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The ghost of Michael Theoklitos 0 Posted August 3, 2013 Here is the actual quote from the article;‘It’s up to him and he wanted to play one up front. That was Grant. Each to their own. I never rang him up and asked him because it’s not my place. I had to wait for my chance and when it came I managed to tear my quad and that was it really.What an absolute c**t! How dare he state that Hughton played one up front. So he didn''t play. And then when he did play he got injured. Wait. What are we angry about again?

Mister Chops 7 Posted August 3, 2013 He hasn''t said anything outrageous, but perhaps he could have scored a few more goals when his chances came.Reminds me of Bob Willis. Not one of nature''s smilers. The classic "type" of player to get the crowd on his back. Getting paid big money by anyone''s standards, and looking like he''s hating every minute of it; plus not being very good - hardly a combination to get the fans on his side.

ncfc4eva 0 Posted August 4, 2013 To the New Boy and othersDon''t get me wrong I do believe he is a talented player and can produce, you don''t get an international cap and score goals in the premier league if you haven''t got much about you. It''s just I saw things in that game about him which I didn''t think suited the way NCFC were feeling as a club. We were on a real high you could see energy from so many players in the starting 11 v Wigan. I don''t think he is any kind of an animal and I''m sure he is a nice guy but you either need to be an exceptional footballer or be able to give at least a positive impressive. It seems I''m not the only one with a negative impressions about his attitude. I''m wish him well though. OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iron_stan 0 Posted August 4, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kt2UI_JnzxAthere you go, all you need to remember.did a good job 90% of the time when he was given a chancetheres worse players out there, truth is lambert got more than the best out of some average players who just didnt/dont respond quite the same way under a manager with a different way of doing things Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ncfc4eva 0 Posted August 4, 2013 Iron stan that video shows Morison kicking the ball once. I''m afraid a lot more comes into it. Good finish though. Holt won his place back, hughton and McDermott don''t want him. Not a bad player but you need more than that. All opinions of course but mine is that we will never see him close to playing in the prem again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OTBC[/quote]I''m not questioning the bad attitude / lack of motivation thing, I''m just disagreeing with when it started.... which in my opinion was several months after the Wigan game. His first half a season went well, he scored goals, and actually he outperformed Grant Holt for the first few months. It was the last eighteen months which were dire. If we saw the Steve Morison from the Wigan game last season then he might have got more football here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
