His attitude is poor but don't doubt his ability. It's funny, people on here absolutely rave about tom Carroll, yet he was outshone completely by Morrison at QPR. He has the ability to be a game changer and match winner from midfield. If poch feels he can sort his off field issues and mentality then I'm all for it...dependant on price.

Apparently Morrison has a bad attitude I was told by a season ticket holder at the hammers, hence why he was loaned out.

I've said before that you shouldn't judge a player on their off field personality, it's what they do on the pitch that counts.

But this kid scares me. He's the sort of twat that, despite being paid handsomely, can't stay away from the scum of this world and is likely to end up in prison or dead.

I've felt for a while that Reid was our plan D center back, he won't renew his contract so West Ham will be already planning for life without him. Nothing spectacular but possibly an upgrade on Dawson, and we do need to keep our homegrown player count about where it is now. Morrison has some talent, but I really think there are better midfielders out there we can grab, and if we do move for him it better be because Poch feels he can get him straightened out because one head case player can really tear a squad apart.
Reid isn't homegrown, he's a Kiwi who came to the PL via Denmark. Still, wouldn't mind him as a squad player.

Morrison is a massive talent but he seems like the sort of character who won't ever manage to stay out of trouble.

I'd take Reid, my West Ham mate has been telling me how good he is for a while now and from what I've seen I tend to agree with him. He doesn't do anything fancy but he's solid and has a knack for winning last ditch tackles.

Morrison has bags of tallent but he's also a PR nightmare waiting to happen multiple times over, I wouldn't go near him for anything above £4m but even then we'd risk him unsettling our other youth players who usually seem to keep out of trouble.

File Morrison alongside the likes of Marlon King and Nile Ranger

Morrison is a great talent but is one of those that are destined to be in and out of police cells/jail

Not the sort of guy we should have representing our brand

Not crazy about the Morrison link but Winston Reid is far better than he gets credit for.

In the same way that Vlaar had not been noticed cos he was in a bad team, Reid has also suffered with this a bit.

Put any good CB in a bad team and he will struggle to stand out unless he is truly awesome and a cut above.

Reminds me of when the Stan Collymore vs Ulrika Johnson assault broke in the papers my best pal said at the time "It must be true, he hit her over the bar, that's Collymore in a nut shell"
Re Morrison he seems a nasty little scrote & I don't give 3 fucks how talented he is I don't want him anywhere near our shirt
