Moore backs Morison to stay in charge

-

CARDIFF City striker Kieffer Moore said he would be “100 percent” for Steve Morison getting the job full time after the Bluebirds earned their first win in 11 games with a 2-1 triumph over Huddersfie­ld Town.

The change in style of play has been noticeable since Morison took the reins and supporters have been receptive to a more appealing brand of football.

The players seem to enjoy it, too, with Moore believing that this dramatic shift in style could help him rekindle his scintillat­ing form in front of goal like we saw last year.

“I’d be 100 percent for it,” Moore said when asked if he’d like to see Morison in the hot seat permanentl­y.

“He has brought a real system to our game and you can only see it by watching just how much we have improved in such little time.

“You can time runs better. You’ve got time on the ball.

“You can’t, as we were doing, just turn possession over.

“I feel like we really impose ourselves on teams now and making our own luck.

“It’s been a much-improved system and it’s been for the better.”

Explaining why he believes this new system will be more conducive to him scoring goals, Moore added: “You could say I had a slow-ish start, I had a couple of things go against me.

“I’m not going to hold that against myself.

“I know what I can do, everyone knows what I can do.

“It’s on me to get myself going. I think this change of management has helped me. It’s got more players around me, I’ve had more chances on goal since that (change). I’m not saying that’s the reason, but the more chances I get the more likely it is I can repeat last year.”

Moore admitted he has really enjoyed the shift which has been implemente­d over the last fortnight.

“I’ve loved working under him,” the striker added.

“Moro’s been great. He’s not been afraid to dig us out.

“He’s not been afraid to put us in our place and tell us what we should and shouldn’t be doing.

“He has given us a real structure and way of playing. I think everyone can see that.

“It’s been working. Staff, players and everyone has bought into the way he wants us to play.”
