    Was that his first full game? Good news if he comes through unscathed.

    hopefully the first of many full games. He is our best all round attacker. Good in the air, has pace, great with the ball on the floor and offers a good goal threat.

    No, he played the full 90 vs Millwall at home.

    He's a very very good footballer though. Tonight was proof that he's much more than just an impact substitute.

    In the first half I though he carried most threat for us. Adding Dike gave us an extra dimension. Interesting that Big Val decided against the usual ploy of swapping out the forward after an hour tonight - I wonder if we might see more of Woodrow, Morris and Dike together for the majority of the game as we head into the playoffs?

    His close control with the ball, his ability to run at players, his work rate and chipping in with a few goals has been the difference in games since January. Norwich must be kicking themselves

    To be honest, I had to double check, but I vaguely remembered us starting a game with WMD.

    He’s been nursing a groin injury, so until recently he hasn’t really been available for a full game. I thought he had a great game, kept going but he looked understandably absolutely knackered after about 75 minutes.

    He did, but soldiered on, was expecting Vic to replace him or Woody.

    We look so much a better team with him on the pitch.

    Key to this season now will be to get the points we need as quickly as possible and then make sure him and dike are fully fit for the play offs.

    Win Saturday and we go above Swansea, who play Reading on Sunday. Hopefully we can play at the same levels as tonight, but would be surprised if Morris starts again after playing the full 90 tonight

    He really is a top player. All of the above...work rate. ball control. strong in the air. gets stuck in. sees a pass and makes it. reads the game well. skilful and can beat a man. a proper team player. Great great acquisition.

    What you said. The ball just sticks. He's Ward and Shipperley rolled into one with Sheron's velvet touch.

    We're a much bigger threat with him on the pitch. What a great signing.

    He has a touch of Adam Hammill about him with the way he runs at players, that assist could have been Hammill last night - brilliant

    Always liked look of him coming off the bench and wondered why he wasn’t starting, hopefully he can start more often.
    One of most encouraging things is we have him under contract

    He is one I would play for 90 mins every game if fit and able. We need a forward who takes on defenders. My worry is that without Dike where are the goals coming from.

    Incredibly quick for a big man, combined with a great touch and a real handful for defenders - must start every game from now surely
