James Morrison

[English Freak 456]

I seriously wouldn't mind James Morrison, always works hard, great tackler and despite playing for West Brom is actually quite good. Has some eye for goal actually, telling you right now every goal he scores is a fucking wonder goal!! Also he's Scottish, well English but Scottish lmao.

Some of these comments about lower clubs and stuff funny. Look at some of the players who are now considered good/class/have great potential.

- Nemanja Vidic played for Red Star Belgrade and CSKA Moscow before he played for Man United, look at how he has preformed in the last 5 years.

- Gary Cahill played at Villa and Bolton, now playing for the Champions of Europe. Looks capable of replacing JT soon.

- Kevin Strootman at PSV, used to play in the second division of Dutch football now linked with AC Milan and United. Has unreal potential.

- Petr Cech played at Rennes, moved to Chelsea and turned into one of the very best goalkeepers of the last 10 years.

- Vincent Kompany played at Anderlecht then Hamburg, moved to City and after a few seasons is probably the best CB in the league imo.

- Frank Lampard from West Ham to Chelsea, now considered one of the greatest midfielders to play in England.

- Thiago Silva played at Juventude, Porto and Dynamo Moscow. Struggled then moved to Fluminiese and then went to Milan. Now an amazing CB!

- Joe Cole from West Ham to Chelsea, was a very good player when he was injury free. Gutted we let him go

I don't think any of those players on your list were 26 years of age (apart from Cahill) when they were signed by their respective clubs.

Morrison just isn't good enough to play for Chelsea FC. Yes, he has talent, he has ability...but he also has limited potential.

If he really was that great, then how come none of the top clubs want him?

He's an average player, nothing more.

Yes but if you think about it, people though Cahill was an average player and were proved horribly wrong. Could happen to Morrison or could be another Steve Sidwell case.

Thing with Cahill is he has proved that he can play at the top level with England while he was still at Bolton. Get all the points being made about Morrison but right now, I'm not sure if it is wise to take a risk in purchasing a midfielder like Morrison to solve our creativity problems. As you said, he could turn out to be a great signing or just another Sidwell. What we need right now is a creative midfielder who has proven himself at a much higher level than Morrison has, someone like Moutinho, Modric etc.
