People are quick to say how good our defence are when he's missing but I thought he was superb on Sunday and for me Manga and Morrison is our best central defensive partnership.
I do love Bamba's character and he does come across as a true leader in the squad but his Ill discipline when it comes to positioning and knowing his own weaknesses has let us down time and time again this season.
Morrison has become a bit of a scapegoat for him in my opinion.

He was brilliant on Sunday. He was a real threat in the Chelsea area for crosses - hence the numbers of times he was fouled.
Let's hope he gets back to his scoring ways for the last few games as he did last year (at Hull away he was awesome in a must win game).
I agree, his performance on Sunday was the best i've seen from him.
Is there any chance at all that, with the focus there has been on the two fouls on Morrison for which pens were not awarded, officials might pay a bit more attention to the constant foul-play he suffers at virtually every dead ball in virtually every game?
No? Oh well...
Warnock has highlighted this numerous times at press conferences, complete stab in the dark but I’m sure Morrison should have won us at least 7/8 penalties this season.Originally Posted by Robin Friday's Ghost
Still I'm sure it all evens out and that he's been awarded 7-8 that he shouldn't have got.
Bamba and Ecuele Manga played pretty well together when Morrison was out injured.
It's the combination of Bamba and Morrison that has become a liability.
He was fantastic
Formidable captains display - Just a question ........ Anyone know how many times he's actually been fouled in the opposition penalty area this season?
Would be interesting to know
Superb. Man of the match even though we lost. I think it’s it best pairing him and Bruno. We all love Sol but his mistakes get punished at this level. Thought the whole defence was outstanding apart from the Loftus Cheek goal.
At Sunderland last season in first half he was pulled down but nothing given but after he had a word in the refs ear in 2nd half as a corner was lined up, he goes over and a pen is rightly awarded.
Yes but don’t forget that Alonso got his header in from the corner from which Chelsea equalised so both goals should have been snuffed out at source.
