Isn't the only reason West Ham want rid of him because he wouldn't sign with the agent Allardyce wanted him to or something similar? Apparently his behaviour has actually been pretty good there and on the loan spells at QPR and Cardiff.

Something like that. He hasn't appeared to do much wrong recently but he has just sailed into obscurity due to other factors.

Just checked and Lazio are 3rd? Would these guys even play him?

Edit: Or maybe not. No idea about the credibility of this journalist, but this seems about right.

Apart from getting charged with assault he's been as good as gold.

The lad is clearly an idiot. Had numerous chances and is destined to be a player who could have been, but will never be great.

Which he was found not guilty for apparently.

I don't think he'll ever be great either, I just think it's unfair that people are putting all the blame on him when they don't know the full story.

He's not been tried for it yet. Other charges from November were dropped at the end of last year - allegedly threatening to throw acid in teh face of his former girlfriend - a woman he allegedly previously threatened by saying he would blow her house up. That didnt proceed because she wouldnt make a statement.

Bottom line, he had it all at United and Fergie knew he was trouble and shipped him out. He's gone to West Ham and continued to be trouble - so much so that they are prepared to let a player go for nothing who's talent suggests could be worth millions. Its nobody's fault but his.
 
Could LvG be the one to tame him ;)

Seriously though, I would have thought someone will take a punt, surely Rodgers has the ego to bring the best out in him - Sterling, Sturridge and Morrison...
 
Such a shame he's a complete idiot. I always thought he looked slightly better than Pogba in the reserves.

Don't want that prat back here.
 
Is there some insinuation in that where he's not allowed to leave the country? Legal issues and all that.
I read in one report a while ago that he had to stay in London due to his trial but then he went on loan to Cardiff so it must have just been rumours. He's been cleared now though so I doubt it's anything to do with legal issues.
 
His agent was in Rome yesterday negotiating a deal with Lazio still, it isn't off.
 
The assault charges against him were thrown out of court the other day after CCTV showed that his ex girlfriend who was claiming he had hit her actually fell to the ground on her own
 
It seems doubtful that this would ever be finalised.

I've always thought he was hugely overrated. No doubting that technically his dribbling is excellent, and he has his moments but the rest of his game is often very poor and he's a liability because of it. Some people don't even have it in them to learn the finer points of the game. He's basically another Jason Koumas, although even with a terrible attitude Koumas was still the best player in the championship whereas Morrison has been bench fodder for Cardiff.

Obviously you're not aware of how Cardiff was being managed & how unhappy the fans where at the team selections & the style of play football served up to them.
Lad is more than able to tear up the Championship. You don't like him so just see the negative, especially if you consider Koumas as a better player :wenger:

Yeah, Daelhi was also benched so their manager must prefer hard workers to flair players.
 
So he's actually managed to make a step up to a bigger club after barely featuring for West Ham?
 
Good luck to him, hopefully he sorts it out some day and reaches his potential!
 
This might work out well for him if he moves there actually. There are a few English lads over there now like Cole and Richards who both have their head screwed on when it comes to playing football so hopefully for Morrisons sake he is able to mature as a player with their help. He may also use Pogbas impact at Juventus as a tool to drive himself to reach the heights he was once touted as reaching.
 
Four year deal apparently. He'll wear the no. 4 shirt, he put a pic up on his instagram
 
He was motm in his first game for them. Very happy to see he's carried that form into the next game.

Really hope he's matured and puts his head down and concentrates on his Football and shows Serie A fans why he was a bigger talent than Pogba in our youth team.
