Does anyone think that JFH could turn around Ravel Morrison? Only 23 in two weeks time. Seemed settled here last time. QPR needs one maverick and we need a young playmaker with that kind of skill. I have a feeling he could settle here again and i think JFH could be a manager to finally get him enjoying his football. Anyone who can get that out of the kid perhaps has one of the best talents in the UK for the last 10 years.

No.

Why would he bother trying?

The desire to do well and put the effort in comes from within. No manager can put it there.

He's an extremely talented boy and if his attitude wasn't in question, he'd be in the first-team of most Premier League sides. I think he's that good, but obviously there is a lot of baggage and if people like Sir Alex Ferguson and Sam Allardyce gave up on him then it's hard to see how many others are going to ensure he reaches his potential.

It will be a real shame if that turns out to be the case, but if we want to build a healthy football club on sensible solid foundations, then unfortunately it means making sure we only bring in the right characters that show the necessary respect to themselves, the club, their teammates and others and have the right attitude.

Granted, we're still a long way from that, but we won't get there if we keep making the same mistakes with players. First we need to build a club and a dressing room that buys into the club ethos and accepts no bullshit from those coming in, and ensuring that those who do cannot be slack and are effectively culturally forced into positive change.

Wasn't Jimmy involved with gangs when he was younger? I thought I read that somewhere?. Anyway, if Jimmy did get involved with the wrong crowd but managed to turn it around, he could be a good role model for Morrison,I guess.
I agree though we need a maverick type player,not sure Morrison is the man though.

I would prefer to have Morrison as our number 10 rather than Fer.
Morrison is a kid who might just mature into a proper footballer.
If he ever grows up he could provide some excitement, something different, which lets be honest we could do with.

Straight swap for Fer. I am in.
Meanwhile back to reality.

Is JFH known for his people skills. I get the feeling he is the kind of manager who brings in people who already have the right attitude

No more bad eggs please. We were so lucking with Taarabt, the timing was just right. Taarabt a year older, wouldn't have made it to Christmas. Morrison has had his chance and 90% will fail at his next club. We can't afford the money, effort , time , bad publicity and the negative effect in the dressing room.

He's not made any headlines for Lazio has he, and he was ok with us I thought.

I think every team can afford to carry one, but ONLY one.

While this season doesn't look like going anywhere I'd like some entertainment.

I'd sign him if possible. I have a short memory...........

I probably wouldn't bother - get someone with less natural talent but a more driven personality.

Maybe once we have the rest of the team settled and performing we can afford to gamble on a wildcard (like we did with Adel) but we aren't there yet.

Nobody is turning Morrison around. Like Taarabt he will never have the mentality to be a top footballer.

Ok here's one.

If you HAD to sign one of them on a ten year contract which states they would always start every game, would you choose Taarabt or Morrison?

Agreed, which is why we should be looking to get rid of the wasters we still have at the Club rather than bringing yet another one in. And Morrison really isn't that good anyway, before you even consider his attitude and behaviour.

Absolutely. This is often why Managers are the fall guys when things don't go well because they can't sack the players.

Having the right kind of player(s) is paramount as I think it's easier to coach the right kind of player than have to deal with a talented player whose head is elsewhere. How many of those have we had?!

This 100%.

Managers take too much credit when they win, and too much blame when they lose.

Bosh says, could JFH turn around Morrison, my opinion is, he shouldn't bother.

It must be hard enough getting normal players, playing as a team, without a special needs player

JFH is currently working on turning the squad we have (plus or minus a few) into the tight type of group he fostered at Burton. Somewhat like the group mentality Warnock likes to create.

While Warnock had the base there to be able to have the luxury of Taraabt, JFH is working from a lower level of collectivism and a wrong un at this stage is IMO totally undesirable.

Morrison could have it all, he just looked capable of wonderful football when he was with us but whether true or false there were a lot of stories about his off field activities and attitude which mark him out as a no from me.
