Someone predicted Morrison is so talented that he might make the first team very soon and also something about World cup with England.

So how is he doing and is that prediction just stupid?

I can see why Paul McGuinness praised Devlin for that performance, that save from the freekick was terrific :eek:

A substandard bag of meat and bones.

He has just come back from an injury lay-off and has played with greater maturity and discipline than before and has been fare more effective as a result.

I wouldn't think he is anywhere near the first team at present, but he's definitely one of a talented pool of midfielders at this level that we can look forward to progressing through the ranks and hopefully eventually the first team.

I'd not seen anyone suggesting he was anywhere near the 1st team yet. What I have seen (and what I suspect you're thinking of) is that he's been massively tipped by several journalists (Henry Winter in particular) as the brghtest talent of a generation of English players.

Whether that's true remains to be seen, but recent indications are that he's starting to settle down a bit, which is good.

Keane showed some nice footwork in the box for his goal, Morrison's was a follow up from a save from Cofie.

Apparently Conor Devlin made some great saves.
Did he ever, superbly taken goal.

Put it this way; he'll need a huuuuge game against the Arsenal if he's going to South Africa.
