SHAYDEN MORRIS reckons Aberdeen are already dancing to Jimmy Thelin's tune with a little help from a dressing room boom box and DJ Leighton Clarkson.

The Pittodrie winger is enjoying a new lease of life under the Swedish boss who he insists has taught him more in a few weeks than he's learned in years.

Morris produced a brilliant strike in Saturday's 4-0 win over Lowland League champions East Kilbride for his first-ever Dons goal after two injury-hit years in the north east.

And the 22-year-old says he is loving life under a manager that has got him back in tune thanks to a little belief — and some pumped-up dressing-room vibes.

To be fair, anyone within 50 yards of Palmerston and K Park on the last two Saturdays couldn't have failed to notice the beats booming out the away changing quarters.

And the ex-Fleetwood man who has made just 36 appearances in two years having suffered two hamstring tears said it's all down to the new boss.
