  • Morison v Hudson

    Morison - played 10, 11 points, 7 goals
    Hudson - played 3, 7 points, 5 goals

    Big difference. Not just in stats, but performances too. Looking much better as a team, and going forward.

    Morison brought in some good players but I fail to see how we'd have gotten those points or goals from these last 3 matches if he was still here.
    There was a negative vibe seemingly spreading.

    Hudson steps in and it"s game on, City on an upward trajectory.
    Right decision at the right time, onwards and upwards.

    we look a far more dangerous team going forward, while retaining a passing style, it's been an entertaining few games

      Well if there is a similar poor run under Hudson I hope he is given time to put things right

      We can't go on chopping and changing managers like this

      I hope Hudson is able to work with what we have because if the side is good enough for the top 10 then let's have it !

        A few smart additions in January and we could easily be looking top 10.
        I've been saying for a while that we have the players to be doing better. A change of gaffer clearly was needed.
        Hopefully we'll keep this going and keep improving.

          A happier club all around it seems both on and off the pitch.

            We certainly seem to have added a bit more going forward. Morison in the end was for me overthinking everything. Interesting today we didn’t have the possession or the passes but we seem to use the ball well when we had it.

            I think you could have made a case for Morison to have had more time but you can’t say Hudson hasn’t added to what we were doing. Although my gut is that Hudson wouldn’t have got us playing like this without the foundation Morison set and the signings made.

              Morison signed some decent players for sure, and maybe built some foundations too.
              My issue with Morison was how we weren't utilising what we had.
              A lot of what we were doing seemed to centre around what the opposition might, or might not do.
              We looked utterly toothless going forward and afraid to attack. I don't think I can really recall a City team looking that fearful of having a go.
              Were they afraid of being berated by Morison of they got it wrong?
              Serious question, something clearly wasn't right...
              The same squad are now playing with some level of freedom and confidence. I feel that speaks volumes.
              Things clearly weren't right behind closed doors and I really don't think they'd have improved.
              Hudson has brought a breath of fresher air about the place, and it's showing.

                I think if the club had bought a striker early on Morison and the club would be in a better place .

                I can imagine Morisons abrupt , response to Mr Tan or any other within the management team about the lack of goals in his sides , as we were creating chances ??

                I do have some sympathy for Morison and can see him doing well in the game ..

                  Re: Morison v Hudson

                  It's to do with shape in my opinion. I think that Morison was obsessed with shape, and liked to keep it even when we were searching for a goal. Never did a wide player or midfielder take risks, there were no pockets created, no late runners, a lack of urgency in the attacking third. I don't think that he was prepared to allow the players to take risks in order to score or cause opposition defenders problems. Maybe it was down to inexperience, stubbornness or a lack of ability in that area(from Morison) who knows? There were enough people saying that was what was needed.

                  Not saying that Hudson is the Messiah, lets see when things start going against him, that's the test. Although it's obvious that Hudson understands that in order to win a game, players have to be more aggressive in the final third and risks need to be taken in order to stretch the opposition.

                    I can imagine Morisons abrupt no nonsense response to Mr Tan or any other expert within the management team about the lack of goals in his sides , as we were creating chances,and club wanted it to appear for free after selling our main striker. I'd be pissed with that ??

                    I do have some sympathy for Morison and can see him doing well in the game .. and hope he does .

                        At the end of the day they should be doing what the managers ask, so they should be doing as Morison asked and I think they were, some games we created plenty but couldn’t finish. Things certainly seem quicker in the final third now, we used the ball so well on the counter attack today, pressing was excellent and we generally made the right decisions.

                        I’ve said before I think Morison was simply over thinking the team, overthinking the opposition and not focusing on us.

                          Sums it up for me, we already have more of an identity under Hudson.

                            Morison has an eye for a good player, and Hudson knows how to get them to enjoy playing the game
