It's a good job Morison is picking the team and not the posters on here. Great 25 minutes from the big guy.
He got the Morison treatment in the post-match interview.Quote:

Is it too late for Uche to be coached into a better and more rounded player?
If yes he would be an OK - even good (presumably cheapish) - signing in the summer.
If he is just a strong goal poacher who cannot manipulate a football - then NO.
The big hitters on here are wrong againQuote:

The job of a striker is to score goals, that's what Uche does and he does it well.
He was bloody awful, apart from his goal (which sounds daft, I know). He scored, which is great but he's absolutely crap at football. If he didn't try to prove how strong he is every time he touched the ball, he'd be a better player. Just hold it up and lay it off.Quote:

He's not very good with the ball at his feet, but I thought that he at least tried to play properly tonight, unlike his performance against Blackpool.Quote:

He's a more canny version of LFW with better feet. Great sub.Quote:

So you’re laughing at Steve Morison are you because he was doing exactly that after Ikpeazu’s goal.Quote:

Ideal impact sub if you like but if you want cultured football, forget it.
Whatever happens he'll be a legend down here. Maybe not the most skillful but he divides opinions.Quote:

He causes problems to a tiring defence, he's a handful, he has been scoring. Can't really fault it, doing exactly what he was brought in to do.
Big hitters :hehe: :hehe: it's an internet messageboard you madheadQuote:

My exact thoughts. The first time I saw him play for us,, I said he was a Championship version of LeoQuote:

Saw this elsewhere, may have been mentioned already here but Reading academy player, relegated with Wycombe last season (their issue with Derby), on loan from Middlesbrough (have had their own issues with Derby).
Suppose he may have had a few messages this morning.

Me too and I absolutely respect that kind of shithousery :hehe:Quote:

How can you not love him
When the majority of our goals come from crosses a set piece goes down well in my opinionQuote:
