Did i not witness the Forrest performance? He was instrumental in that game that basically got us into the playoffs.

Every manager who has worked with him has failed and given up, including Ferguson and Allardyce. And the genius that is Harold Redknapp. Of course managers run on ego, believing they can do things that people who are evidently better than them cannot, but there is no reason to believe this bloke will ever learn.

And therein lies the problem.

I agree, i think it's a shame but surely Fergie and Big sam even Harry don't like players with attitude. Fergie is famous for it, getting rid of good players because they stole the limelight. Harry simply did not like Adel. Anyone worth their salt could get something out of him.
Prove me wrong chaps but when he was at QPR he basically got on with it. We didn't really have too many problems with him.

Fergie used to get the best out of them before selling on, but he really did despair of Morrison. He was the best player in our team by a mile when we had him on loan, and would be again, there is clearly something about him that seriously pisses people off. I like the Maverick, and we have had plenty over the years. Stupidity (Adel, Stan on occassion) I can forgive, arrogance (Rod) also, but Morrison has something nasty about him. Probably down to being told he is great since he was 13.

There,s no doubt the lad has talent, i would love a play maker running our midfield spraying passes left & right, but he comes with baggage, unless he has realized this could be his last chance and knuckles down to hard work, he would be worth a go, but if he still has the couldn't care less attitude i wouldn't want him anywhere near our club.
 
There's a theory that managers sign RM specifically because he was the one player that Fergie couldn't tame.
 
RAVEL RETURN?

Ravel Morrison is on the verge of a return to English football, according to the Daily Mail.

The 23-year-old, who is currently playing for Lazio, is attracting attention from Hull, Sunderland and Nottingham Forest.
 
I'm not surprised they're trying to get rid of him. If he came to QPR he'd have the shock of his life with our current training.

Anyway, no thank you. Attitude stinks.
 
Awful attitude and wouldn't have him back, but to say he didn't do anything while on loan to us is laughable. Showed real quality and was instrumental in our run to the playoffs, but when the going got slightly tough he didn't really fancy it, simple as that.

Like others have said, I am not sure that his goals and performances amount to nothing when he was on loan with us...I certainly recall him scoring a couple of nice goals and providing a creative spark (cheers for those vids Ellers!). He certainly appears to be a troubled soul, with far too many headlines being written about him for the wrong reasons in the past. He may well have used his time abroad to grow up and improve his attitude, in which case I would be interested in giving him another go. Wishful thinking? Most likely. My guess is that he will continue to be a difficult player to manage who occasionally provides some moments of class
 
Whether he is talented/lazy or not and despite whether JFH can reign him in, he is just too volitile a nature regardless to how well he is doing under someone's wing. No club can afford all the yellow and red cards he will accumulate due to the new dissent rules once he is on the pitch (effectively on his own) and reverts to his old ways. It is a shame though because he can be a handful for any defence.

That reminds me, what has happened to Hoilett? Appears to be without a club. Could still come crawling back at the last minute.
 
I can see I have upset some of the more optimistic among us for which I apologise. However, my take is that his few decent performances and a couple of stand out goals was more than counter-acted by his appalling attitude and I will never forget him simply refusing to play in several games having got upset at the ref/robust defenders/the price of smack going down/etc. Given this kind of chip on the shoulder disrupts the rest of the team I say he cost us far more than he delivered on balance.
 
when you see his performance at Birmingham there isn't a team in the country he couldn't get in. Fantastic player, but sadly flawed in his attitude
