I do see your point, and I agree.
I know, I will get criticised for this, but teams like Bournemouth, Brentford and others....won't let you play, so you have to have sufficient muscle to fend them off in addition to the necessary skill to play the game. Officials won't protect players anymore, you have to fend for yourself.....they will just read it as going to ground too easily.
Morgan has proved he can, and he won't be bullied off the ball, without attracting yellows for the aggressor.....sadly, thats where football is.....and physical prowess is not a fancied feature....it's a must.
There are plenty of fine young players, with bags of skill, who will not make the top flight, because of their inability, to let that skill, feature or take effect....they get negated, by stronger players.
Our boys showed on Sunday, they will not be bullied out of the game........that was not the case a while back.
It's all well and good, us all being attracted to the frills of the game.....but it has to be accompanied, by a robust mentality, as we did.
We all know our team is talented.....but, they are now applying it, through a refusal to be out muscled....I say Bravo.
