Jason John Morris is a fictitious football manager for the EA Sports FIFA saga. He was born in North Wales and grew up supporting Liverpool. He became manager for Liverpool in August 2009 and has since enjoyed constant success as the club's favourite manager.

Season 2009-2010
The first season in charge of Liverpool, and they started off the season on all positives. During the end of 2009, Liverpool had climbed to the top position in the Premier League, finishing 2009 as the "Christmas Number One's" and had progressed to the Semi Finals of the League Cup. Europe was looking in good success also, as Liverpool had finished top of their Group in the Champions League. At the start of 2010 Liverpool were carrying good momentum, looking strong in all competitions, with the FA Cup underway. The first disappointment came as Liverpool lost their League Cup Semi-Final tie with Manchester United 2-1 on aggregate, losing 1-0 at Anfield, and only managing a draw 1-1 at Old Trafford. The FA Cup saw Liverpool taken an early exit also, after being kicked out by Burnley with a 1-0 defeat at Turf Moor in the Fifth Round. By now Liverpool were out of two competitions, and they had slipped into 2nd place in the League, falling short of Chelsea. Liverpool progressed through the knockout stages in the Champions League to the Semi Finals with a tie against Bayern Munich, and hopes of a European Cup were beginning to settle in the minds of those at Anfield. Liverpool knew that the Champions League could be all that they would win, yet it would be the prize that would out class the rest. Towards the closing stages of the season Liverpool had secured themselves a place at Madrid in the Champions League Final, after beating Bayern Munich (1-1) on away goals. Reality was that Liverpool had let the Premier League title slip away by just 1 pt to Chelsea after a series of draws early on, and Chelsea lifted the Premier League Trophy 2 weeks before Liverpool headed off to Madrid for the all or nothing game. The Champions League Final 2010 meant Liverpool would, after an impressive display all season, could lift the top prize in club football, or could lose and leave the season with nothing but runner up medals, a huge blow to the managers opening season. Liverpool faced Inter Milan in the Final, and was a close contested game right to the depth, until Gerrard hammered home an 85th minute winner for Liverpool, winning them the European Cup, beating Inter 1-0.

Season 2010-2011
Liverpool's season started off slow, and they appeared to be a different team to the European Champions of the season before. Before the season started, Liverpool contested in the World Club Championships in Dubai, winning the final 1-0 to earn their new title as the World Champions.

Liverpool lost their Community Shield match against Chelsea at the opening match of the domestic season, then for the first five League games, Liverpool only took 8 points out of 15, followed by a disappointing early exit out of the Carling Cup, 2-0 at Anfield in the Third Round against Manchester City.

Following the exit, Liverpool began to pick themselves back up and saw their biggest win on record against Blackpool at Anfield, beating them 5-0, scoring 3 goals in the first 15 minutes of the game. Liverpool went on to Monaco the same week to contest for the UEFA Super Cup against an under-performing Atletico Madrid, beating them 2-1.

Morris went on to beat Valencia twice in the Champions League groups to help them win the group, drawing them against their foes, Chelsea in the Last 16.

In the FA Cup, Liverpool beat Leeds United in the Third Round after a second attempt with a replay, going on to be drawn against Chelsea in the Fourth Round in yet another competition. Liverpool crashed out of the FA Cup in the replay at Anfield 1-0, despite Liverpool being 30 seconds away from victory in the original tie at Stamford Bridge. This meant Liverpool would play Chelsea a record 7 times in one season. Liverpool were defeated in the replay.

Liverpool progressed to the Champions League Final 2011, reaching their second consecutive final, while meanwhile Liverpool fell short of the Premier League title for the second year running to Chelsea, only this time the missed out only on goal difference, both finishing again on 84 points. However 10 days later at Wembley, Liverpool defeated Inter Milan like they did in the European Cup final the year before, this time beating Inter Milan 1-1 AET, (6-5) on penalties with a save from Reina.
