 It's just about a year ago that Morrison headed the goal that beat Soton....think he should start v Bees....with LJF playing LB.

There seem to be a number of people calling for LJF to play at left back, but 6 months ago it would have been considered suicide. I don't understand it. Obviously Rose hasn't had the best start to the season, but two or three games is not enough to judge him on.

Also, if we were to drop Rose, it sounds like Kennedy had a good game for the reserves this week. He's done a decent job before in the first team.

Or we could all stop, remember how young he is, loan him out to a lower-end League One or top-end League Two club, and still have a good young prospect on our hands later in the season/next year. He's only 19.

Despite not showing it last season (Walsall and MK away!!) Morrison is a good young centre half.

He's looked steady and more than good enough for top end L1 football when he's had a run in the side, however...

...his runs in the side have always been next to Aljofree or Vincent or Greer.

He'll do a job for us but he wont fill the gap we are missing. He won't bring leadership and experience to our defence the same way LJF and Cuthbert don't bring these attributes to our defence.

Putting Morrison in for one of LJF or Cuthbert won't solve our problem as the change is very like for like, straight swap.


Sadly for Morrison, this is all spot on.  I do like the idea of loaning him out for a while, but we would then need to get 2 centre backs in!

I've been quite disappointed with some of the games that Morrison has had over time, but he does bring some really good things to the side. I think if he is brought in he will develop - he's a player that can't be ignored. If we loan him out again I think we will eventually lose out on his potential, as he won't be fitting into our setup.

In the reserve game against Plymouth he was very influential and cancelled out Rory Fallon. He also brings that height to the side we miss (although Pericard does contribute to that) and I always look forward to the throw ins.

I would love to see the thread again when we loaned him out last season. I'm sure most could not understand it.

Yes he needs games but i am with Arriba on this one it seems quite clear that Wilson is not going to play him much so it's best he moves on in my opinion.

with LJF playing LB.

So y = r cubed over 3. And if you determine the rate of change in this curve correctly, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised

Why move him on? Wilson recently stated that he thinks Morrison has all the right attributes... I think if we bring in a new experienced CB then a season long loan could be a good option. We seem to bemoan youngsters that leave without being given a chance don't we?

I don't want him to go but if we are being honest Wilson has not shown that he likes to give our own youngsters a game really has he? That's not a pop it just happens that he has bought in better than what we have already got.

Wilson has already said he wants 2 more defenders so that looks like Morrison being 4th choice. Why should we keep him and leave him out the squad let his contract run down and get fuckall for him?

That being said i suppose he could play saturday and prove alot of people wrong. I personally would be playing him.

Did he? Missed that. Last i saw was possbly a striker, a winger and defender. No matter, he still looks to be behind Lecs, Cuthbert and New Bloke #1 anyway so the point stands.

That's the other thing, his strength in the opposition area - his goal went in at pace on Tuesday, with flames coming off it - I think he will contribute with some goals over the course of the season.
