Derby County fans have been reacting to the performance of Ravel Morrison during their game in the Championship.

Wayne Rooney’s side are facing an uphill battle when it comes to their battle against relegation given their most recent points deduction. They’re certainly putting up a decent fight, as they came into the game unbeaten in three and on a positive points total, but it still does look like mission impossible at this stage.

However, if they are to carry on putting up a fight, they are going to need effort from everyone on the pitch – something that you can’t really say was on the mind of Morrison as they took on QPR at Pride Park.

The 28-year-old was pretty ineffective during the game, as he only managed one shot (which was off target), completed just 69% of his passes and failed to register a single tackle or interception (via WhoScored).

It was no surprise, then, to see there were plenty of fans who ripped into him on social media for his display:

“Ravel Morrison is so finished its unreal”

“Forgot Ravel Morrison was on the pitch”
“Is Ravel Morrison still playing?”
“Ravel Morrison just isn’t with it.”
“Ravel Morrison was poor. Deserved the hook.”
“Morrison offering nothing. Watson would be better”

Will Derby avoid the drop?

Yes

Yes

No

No

He’s going to have to put in a lot more effort than that if the Rams are to stand a decent chance of picking up results in order to stay up in future weeks.
