James Morrison: 'There's a lot of s*** going on at West Bromwich Albion'

James Morrison says that there has been "a lot of s*** going on" at West Bromwich Albion following managerial changes and Nicolas Anelka's suspension.

West Bromwich Albion midfielder James Morrison has admitted that life at The Hawthorns currently feels like a "soap opera".

The Premier League outfit dismissed head coach Steve Clarke back in December, but his replacement Pepe Mel has already been dogged by rumours that he could be sacked.

On top of that, striker Nicolas Anelka was recently banned for five matches by the Football Association following his controversial 'quenelle' goal celebration.

"There just seems to have been a lot of shit going on, really," Morrison told The Scotsman. "It does feel like a soap opera – you should try being involved in it.

"It's been one thing after another at West Brom with managers changing and people getting suspended. It's probably hassle that we didn't need.

"There was even talk of the new manager going last week. It's not been ideal but the lads have been great. We are all pulling together."

Morrison, who is currently on international duty with Scotland, sits alongside his teammates just one place above the relegation zone in the Premier League table.
