Man Utd legend Neville: West Ham's Morrison has Gazza qualities

Manchester United legend Gary Neville is delighted seeing Ravel Morrison succeed at West Ham United.

Neville praised former Manchester United youngster Morrison, who has broken into the first team at West Ham this season.

"He also has great balance but also great awareness. He understands where players are around him, and always looks like he has time and space when a game is frantic.

"He can go past a player, and he's also got a toughness to him - he's hard to knock off the ball. For a centre midfielder to have that is a rare commodity in English football; you need to go back to the likes of Paul Gascoigne," Neville wrote in his column for EA Sports.
