Having a great game here. He looks much sharper now he's had a few games under his belt.
 
He slipped a good ball through for one of Fletcher's chances. It's difficult for him though, I kind of hoped Morrison would help him out with the creativity.
 
Think he would be so much better with the game in front of him as a 10 as he’s capable of picking the ball up on the half turn and playing nice slide rule through balls .On the right he spends far to long trying to getting it back on his left.

If he'll pass the ball without taking on another player for no good reason

Morrison played a really good ball over the top for him early on in the game. Think we need to get Morrison on the ball more and have more movement around him. Couple of times I've noticed he's looked for movement around him and players are just stood around.
 
At least he was lively - sorry but the rest of midfield never really got out of first gear.

I am astounded we played a big burly centre half in midfield.
 
The only spec of light in a dark dark tunnel that is our abject season but he’s not even ours which sums it up.
 
He's by a country mile our best player at the moment, and the only player on the entire squad who is capable of some magic, and he works his b***ks off, we should be happy is here
 
Looks a brilliant little player but too selfish when he gets 'there'. Sometimes all he has to do is a simple sideways pass to someone open, instead he shoots into a crowd.
 
He needs to play behind the strikers , he will find it easier to link with them as when he’s out wide he has to cut in and take 2 or 3 players on and sometimes just has a touch to many or it just doesn’t quite sit right for him, he is a terrific little footballer and easy on the eye and I think we may see him pop up with some important moments if played behind the front 2.

To be fair I noticed Britt got annoyed with him late on in the match when he cut inside onto his left and his shot was blocked - I think Britt was in a good position for the pass. Think Warnock needs to try him as a no10 and hammer into him that he needs to get his head up more.
 
It's all well and good saying he's good on the ball, but we're in a relegation battle and he hasn't created a single goal from open play since he arrived.

We need him to either score or to pass better.
It's honestly infuriating how many times he shot straight at a defender right in front of him.
