I'm a convert. I think he will be great player in 12 months, and turn out to be an absolute steal. Great attitude and strong as an ox, he is a leader and vocal on the pitch and believes in himself. Doesn't go missing in games. I'm beginning to really like him.

I think he had an off day yesterday, but only by his already high standards. He does need to work on his end product, and should take some tips from his mate Palmer in that regard. But overall he's brilliant, I love watching him play football. Apart from yesterday, mostly.

I too think he is going to be an absolute superstar, but I could see yesterday why he probably hasn't made the England squad this time (although we were all clamouring) but he will ad that timing to his game and then he will and stay there!

He clearly loves it at Villa, and has grasped the opportunity with both hands. His interview on the pitch after Bayern was great. He has quickly become a big character in the dressing room and he knows the manager believes in him.
I hope the lad gets 10 goals this season and breaks into the England set up.

He just looked a little rusty. He was running through them with the ball then would over hit a touch and end up losing the ball.

It's awesome watching him drive forward and not care about how many opposition players he just steam rollers through

He's been great already.  Just been caught on the ball and given it away a few too many times in the last few games, but has still shown moments of quality as well.

It's to be expected with young players really.

I hope the lad gets 10 goals this season and breaks into the England set up.

Trouble is he plays in a congested area for England.  Whilst his form may often be better than Bellingham, Foden, Palmer, Saka, Grealish and Gordon; they’re more likely to have the 20+ caps experience that the managers seem to want. .

There is always, always a reason not to pick the Villa player, regardless of the individual in charge.

I like Morgan, just need to see more end product. Then he'll get in the England squad I'm sure.

This is correct unfortunately. If he gets his chance it will be down to others being missing from the squad through injury as it stands. Hope he gets a look in at some stage

I read that Bellingham has reverted back to his 6 or 8 role at Madrid this season. That’ll be better for England (alongside rice) and one less body in Morgan’s way.

He's made himself such a key player for us in such a short space of time, that he's bound to start feeling a bit of pressure, and I think that's been visible in some of his play lately - he's trying to do too much at times.

Cracking player, so good to watch. He's already a favourite of mine.

I thought he had a very good game -until he got near their penalty area. Then it all went wrong.

Taking the wrong option; taking the right option but not putting the correct weight on the pass or delaying too long. Once he starts getting these things right, he will be a massive problem for other teams, as Arsenal found out.

He is a kid who has been playing at this level for what, 20 games ?
He is doing more than fine.
