Morrison, who previously played for Manchester United’s youth squad, was transferred to West Ham United in the winter transfer market of 2011-2012 season.

He was given out on loan to Birmingham City for the 2012-2013 season and made 30 appearances for them, scoring three goals. He has been doing quite well since he has come back to West Ham, scoring 4 goals in 8 appearances so far in the current season.

Deemed as a ‘brilliant footballer’ by Sir Alex Ferguson, he showed great skill in the youth squad at Old Trafford and is doing the same for The Hammers. No wonder United fans have been upset about him being let go by the club.
