Morgan Whittaker

I saw Whittaker play in Plymouth's opening game of the season and he was hardly in the game as Plymouth lost 4-0 at Sheff Wed on the back of a woeful team performance.

Left-footed he has often been deployed out on the right but he has the ability to play in a front three or alongside another striker. He is known primarily as a winger or as a No 10.

Whittaker scored for Plymouth on Saturday as they drew 1-1 at QPR.

I cant believe he is still at Plymouth, Class player we should go for without doubt, i always though Semenyo was a player we should have bought from Bristol City, 8m to Bournemouth, a goal and assist in two games, class player

I thought Semenyo looked very good against Newcastle yesterday. Bournemouth's best. No way they'll let him go though.

At the tender age of 8 he was a mascot for Derby in a game v Man Utd, Rooney walked past him in the tunnel.A few years later, Whittaker played in the same team as Rooney at Derby !

Good Knowledge, i think turning the bid he had from Lazio in the last window didn't help his attitude, i know it wouldn't mine.

Time will tell - it's interesting that no Prem clubs thought he was worth a punt, particularly given the fee.

I'm not as sold on him as you, but there's a good chance he ends up a Prem level player, so £6m feels a pretty low-risk option.

Agree a good player, but maybe not Prem level.

As we've just bought Esse this was never going to happen

The left-footed Whittaker can play in a front three or as a striker in a front two.A couple of years ago he was known primarily as a winger or a No 10.
He is quick and direct and has that ability to drop into pockets of space and cause problems.
 
I will confess I don’t know a huge amount about him having not watched him play a lot. However, he’s already 24 so if he was going to break into an EPL team it would have been likely to happen already. Of course there are cases where players develop later on but they are increasingly few and far between. In his case he’s playing for a team bottom of the Championship, seems to have let them down with his attitude and the only club in for him is another Championship club paying a decent but not exceptional transfer fee. All of these would give me reservations about him.

Funny enough that's almost word for word how his ex-manager described him:

"Morgan is a very talented young player, who can play either in a front three, or as a striker in a front two," Argyle manager Steven Schumacher told the club website.

Amazingly, another ex-manager used another identical phrase to you in describing him:

“He’s quick and direct: he has the ability to drop into pockets of space well and also contributes with goals and assists." Michael Appleton.

I sincerely hope that you are not insinuating that these managers are merely copying Willo's words and passing them off as their own!

You find that this happens a lot with said poster!

The decision when HOL rebooted to allow the option to block certain people’s comments is a Godsend!!
