West Ham midfielder Ravel Morrison has talked up the Championship and says he is not expecting an easy ride during his loan spell at QPR.





The 21-year-old joined the R’s on loan until the end of the season last month after falling out of favour at Upton Park.

Morrison made his home debut in Saturday’s 1-1 draw with Leeds, and he believes the second tier is actually tougher than the Premier League in some ways.

He said: “It’s very different to the Premier League.

“I actually think it’s a lot harder in some respects. You get a lot more time on the ball in the Premier League.

“In the Championship you don’t get much time on the ball and you have to make decisions very quickly.”

Morrison is impressed by his new manager Harry Redknapp and he hopes the former Tottenham boss can help him get his career back on track.

“I think it’s pretty obvious that he’s a really good manager,” he added.

“From what I can tell, he is one that looks after his players. I’m just hoping he can get the best out of me.”

 

Was this interview conducted in the players bar?

 

He does impressions? Can he do Tommy Cooper? Even better, can he do Maradona (on the pitch)?

 

Good old Jesus he needs to adjust

 

That drives me crazy. Take responsibility FFS and get the best out of yourself

 

Perhaps he means that he hopes QPR will use him in a role that will allow him to blossom, not square peg him?
