The most worrying part for me is the fact he’s including Keiron freeman in his frustration at not being picked (over a midfield 3 that has largely over performed this season). Freeman is a veteran of this squad. Probably the most long serving player in the squad apart from maybe Basham or sharp (maybe not, cba to check) but if he wants to cause splinters and cliques within the squad due to his frustrations, having contributing very little to nothing, that’s dangerous if he’s trying to form some sort of cabal against the system. We need to be united, a band of brothers going into every game, a squad, a family. That’s what we’ve been built on. That’s what we’ve been successful doing. That’s what we need given the ‘underdog’ tag we’re going to be branded with this year.
You didn't see lundstram going on Instagram taking a pop at the fans after getting stick when he came in for coutts 2 years ago. Or the manager for being ‘frozen out’ after we brought Norwood in. You saw him dig DEEP and look at himself in the mirror to improve. That’s why we signed him. Because of his character. That’s why we sign all of our players with a 15 point checklist, for these reasons. Morrison seems to stick out like a sore thumb in terms of our signings because he doesn’t conform to any of these attributes and he is already causing friction within the fan base and probably squad due to these qualities.
For the record, I’m not hanging him out to dry and I hope he gets all the help he needs in overcoming any demons he has but we as a club cannot afford any passengers on our quest under wilder, it contradicts and undermines everything we’re about. I’d release him tomorrow if I was wilder.
This is a revolution, it’s not fifa. He might be our highest rated player on a computer game but he is by a million miles our weakest link in the squad and could jeopardise everything. I fully expect wilder to act swiftly in this situation.
