Not always, I certainly had issues with a lot of last season's dealings, but I champion most of his decisions. As for this guy, he isn't my cup of tea, and I don't see him as being automatic promotion material, but hey, plenty seem to rate him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offalyowl Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 I think he be a good signing and a great start to our transfer business this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then Newcastle's centre backs didn't look like automatic promotion material when we played them. I think as long as you have a steady enough defence, it's what your midfield and attackers do that will get you automatic promotion. Brighton without knockaert and Murray wouldn't have been near automatic promotion, even with Dunk in their defence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earlsfieldowl Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 All seems a bit like last post season - just reaffirms my belief CC doesn't really have a clear idea of what/whom he wants. Look like things haven't really changed all that much and lessons don't appear to have been learnt. Early days granted but pretty underwhelming stuff so far.

He possibly makes it known to DC what positions he needs to fill then DC has his team of scouts/advisors to buy somebody. Just my opinion. Been saying it for ages. I think you could be right, our signings these last 12 months have all the finger prints of someone who's spent most of their career in the championship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel your passion mate but seriously in this day and age who exactly are we wanting the club to bring in. we are a massive club who have done really well the last two seasons. are we a bigger pull than derby Sunderland Aston villa? probably not at the moment and thats just where we are at the moment. premier league players won't come unless it's a journey man at the end of his career. I really do think this type of no nonsense centre back is where we shoUld be looking. 6 4 a leader right age and many games in the championship WAWAW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I read something similar when Carlos first took over. Where he identified the position and type of player, then someone went out and got him that type of player. But I think Carlos said he has the final say. I suppose if that wasn't technically true, then it could explain players being (allegedly) frozen out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt Wednesday Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 In my opinion this would be a great signing. Experienced Championship CB with plenty of games left in his legs. Morrison and Lees would be a very good pairing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19owl08 Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 (edited) Stats suggest he'd be an upgrade on Loovens in the aerial ability & attacking department. His passing is awful however: Morrison: Loovens: Lees: Edited June 8, 2017 by 19owl08 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No 2 is r nilsson Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 One of the features of the best teams last year was how their centre halves could bring the ball out of defence. My recollection of this guy was a hoof upfield. We need footballers all over the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People make me laugh, if someone had posted that Wolves, or some club, were chasing Morrison, most would say, they're welcome to him Edited June 8, 2017 by gurujuan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not better than what we already have. Its not necessarily about having better in this position but providing decent cover... Which he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
