Steve Morison, 21st best manager in the Championship?

[olderblue]

I've said in another thread, he's going to be MOTM in October or gone, it's that wide apart!!!
Obviously I hope it's the former
Looking at the current signings I get that you have to win the ball first to retain it, and we look like we're going to press sides
The 5 loan signings will dictate how are season goes I believe
We need a couple of flare players and forwards who can actually score goals.
1st of July and I'm reasonably happy with the signings so far
Let's see what we have bought in for Saturday 30th.

The one thing Morison is going to have to do this season is take FULL responsibility for the results and playing style
It's his squad and he picks it, no hiding place (or blaming everyone else)
Put another way, if he doesn't succeed, he'll never get another opportunity at this level, if at all

I’ve heard things like “it’s not been for the want of trying” said about our failure to sign a striker so far. If that’s true, it’s really not a good sign - I’m hoping we’ve got loans in place that will be confirmed fairly shortly and I think we need better than the likes of Hugill and Uche.

Definitely sounds as if the new loan rules have really affected us.

Am I imagining it, or was there something that came out at the start of the summer about a foreign player we'd tried to sign but had fallen foul of visa requirements or something?

Usually very fine margins between success and failure at this level, and doesn't seem like we've been catching many breaks so far.
Still plenty of opportunity to get things right though.

Yaya Sanogo in Mick's time here. Not sure about this year, although we were supposed to have signed a few players from abroad this summer, and we've only signed one... Or 8 if you agree with FIFA

I agree with a lot of this.
