    Spot on. What is really frustrating is the Sinclair situation. I don't understand it at all. I know it has been said to death, but it is * mental. There is no way Morgan is better than him, no matter how much he has regressed. There is something not right.

    Sincy, Johnson and Morgan aren't good enough and there is something not right

    I think Johnston is good enough, but this pressure isn't good for him at all.

    Lewis Morgan level is st mirren.

    Mikey Johnson at 19 is three times the player already of that *!

    Shved and Sinclair are in a different world to Morgan.

    I don’t care if they are the worst trainers going see if they can do it on the pitch like others before them I really don’t give a *!

    If I have to watch a left side of Bolingoli and Morgan or Taylor and morgan this season I will * greet!

    The most frustrating thing is that this should be an ideal situation for us at left-wing! Having an extremely talented youngster coming through with an experienced player is ideal. Sure, theelder player may not be what he was but he can still get goals and then you have the likes of Arzani to come in when he is fit. Shved and Edouard can play there too. So why the * is Lewis Morgan playing? It is one of the most baffling managerial decisions in my time following Celtic. I know every manager will have a slightly unusual preference that some fans won't understand, but nobody can justify this.

    I think that this in itself should be enough to give Lenny his P-45 and wish him all the best. Morgan was always a gamble who showed talent at a lower level and was worth a punt, but he is near 23 and hasn't improved in his time here or at Sunderland. I am sure he will have a decent career in League One or at Aberdeen/Edinburgh clubs. He is Scott Allan on the wing.

    His level is higher than st mirren mate. Not good enough for Celtic but certainly too good for st mirren

    Morgan could easily play for Hibs or Aberdeen.

    Even a side in England.

    Destroyed them even first half but second he turned it up a notch and committed 2 and 3 everytime. All they could do was foul him..

    When he bulks up he'll be like Forrest but a bit more skillful. Love the fact he just goes for it. None of this cutting back *.

    Played really well. Terrorised them every time he got the ball. Love how he is so positive with the ball. Sometimes maybe tries to beat one man too many, but his decision making will get better with experience.

    The way he plays is similar to hazard he just has such pace and control and as soon as he gets the ball he just turns and sprints at them full pelt. Can link up and can run through 3/4 players, love him. So creative

    Man of the match for me tonight. He destroyed their shape as they had to put 2 or 3 players on him creating more space for others to exploit. Loved it when he nicked the ball off their player outside our box on the wing and went on a great run until he was fouled. They just couldn't cope with his control and pace at times.

    Just had a go and has some skill. Needs to hit the weights, however. Far too lightweight.

    Love how he's got that rare ability and confidence where it doesn't affect him if he isn't successful, he keeps going cause he knows what he's capable of. To be able to freak out a defence the way he does, it's so good to make them think twice every time he has the ball
