    Morris to me is a guy who has electrifying pace and ability to now and then beat a man but nothing else. An impact player off the bench, A luxury we can't afford to carry. He can't head, pass, tackle or track back. His pace and threat is almost always nullified when teams suss him out and put 2 players on him. Pape for me changed the cup final when he came on. I thought he was excellent. He has no idea what he is doing so nobody else does either. I think his strength is his main attribute but if we can get more than we paid for him i'd bite your hand off. Put the combined sales of those 2 together and get a decent striker signed up.

    To me it doesn't matter if they are out the door before hearts and no replacements are in.

    I think thats a tad harsh on Morris, he got 13 assists for us last season so he definitely has his uses.

    I keep reading about people saying that he doesnt track back and help out his full back, well from what I have seen of Keskinen so far he isnt particularly great at that either.

    If he goes then good luck to him but the problem then is we will only have 2 wingers in the squad, so realistically we will probably have to get in at least 2 more considering wingers are a huge part of how Thelin wants us to play.

    We probably need more than that considering the amount of games we will be playing this season and the inevitable injuries that will occur though out the season.

    I dont mind Morris at all but have said for a long time I just dont think he is a 90 minute player.
    Impact sub and by his assists etc last season a very good impact sub.
    Every team needs impact subs and especially pace coming off the bench with 20 odd mins to go. That is where Morris is effective.
    If he does go then we are going to struggle to find anyone to replace him as an impact sub.
    But if he goes I can't be p1ssed off at the lad as all players want as much game time as possible.
    Unfortunately i dont think Morris has regular 90 minutes of pace and quality in him and will soon be struggling for any game time at all

    But hey good luck min whatever you decide.

    In jimmy we trust

    I was told Pape was wanting a move, so makes sense to cash in on him.
    Morris I have also been told is hoping for a move south, so will have to see what comes of that, if anything.

    Both played a huge part on winning us the cup, so whatever happens they will always have a place in the Pittodrie history books.

    Think back one year and nobody would have gave a sh*t if they had went.

    Best wishes to them both if they go and a chance for new players to make a name for themselves.

    He was in the Grosvenor Casino one Saturday night when he was injured bragging about how good he was and he would end up in the EPL. Blah blah.

    Unlikely as it seems, it wouldn't surprise me if he did make it to a big league.
    If he were to go to Turkey and hit a bit of form, it could fluke him a big move.

    Pape is away, depending on a medical. We will receive 850,000 pounds for him.

    Richard Jensen freed by the club. Hope he can get his career back on track at a new club somewhere and good luck to him.
