So far in 2017, Jordan Morris has three starts for the Seattle Sounders on the left wing. In those games he has a single goal, while his teammates have scored five. Those are the positives from the switch. But not everything about it has been positive. For example, Morris has not registered a single dribble or cross at his new position (according to Opta stats via WhoScored).
It is pretty clear that Jordan Morris is not a perfect winger. It’s a role that the Seattle Sounders have tried to fill effectively for most of their time in MLS.
