Morrison a wasted talent
Morrison left West Ham under a cloud when he was dumped by former boss Sam Allardyce after a string of discipline issues in East London.
He sealed cult hero status with Hammers fans when he scored one of the goals of the season on the way to a memorable 3-0 win at White Hart Lane back in the 2013/14.
All his good work was undone, though, and he faced further disciplinary problems in Italy where he has played just three times for the Rome side.
