Big Stall Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 i hope he stays. although he is injury prone i honestly can't remember mclean having a bad game. really good player Scottish cup defeat last season. The man was the worst player on the park. Saying that, he has improved significantly and I hope he gets to stay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
another number Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 I think we should be able to almost disregard his injuries for the most part. If you're breaking down in training or in matches, or if you have a recurring problem then yeah...fair enough, but If some dirty big c**t comes in and snaps your leg in half...that's not being injury prone. In fact on the contrary, the speed of which he has always seemed to rehabilitate would suggest that he is anything but. Exactly! There is a HUGE difference between picking up wee niggly injuries that keep you out for a few weeks, then you come back in and get the same/another wee niggly injury and being injured through anothers poor tackling ability. I personally think he could be a cracker of a player as he looks to be improving by being back in the team and if we let him go we'll regret it. Marky, Marky, sign him up Well said Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammer Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 Scottish cup defeat last season. The man was the worst player on the park. Aye, he got torn a new arsehole that game but that was at right back. I've said it once and I'll say it again, he is a much more assured centre half and one we should be looking to get signed up as soon as possible.

Wellfan1984 Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 Of course he's not the complete player but to be fair to McLean even the best of the best lose their man. For me, next season unless we sign someone better (unlikely) McLean and Craigan should be our centre partnership. I understand McGhee's stance as that is a lot of money per game for Motherwell to spend but hopefully we will be seeing McLean signing a new two year deal.

Well-Made Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 Express yesterday reported he's been offered a 12 month deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jk2205 Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 Here's hoping... Cracking player, and could end up saving us a bob or two (which we dont have anyway) long term Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 After his performance today I wonder of his offer of a contract has been withdrawn? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ya Bezzer! Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 He's more likely to score a goal than any of our midfield! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dosser1886 Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 After his performance today I wonder of his offer of a contract has been withdrawn? Having to cover for Hammell most of the game didn't help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MearnsWell Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 Having to cover for Hammell most of the game didn't help. Aye, think the pair of them could've done with RELATE counselling for Killies first goal. McLean to be fair isny used to playing in the left centre defence slot, and Hammell's defensive abilities are always a subject of debate.

Kmcalpin Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 Being honest both Hammell & MacLean had nightmares today. Looking to next season Hammy is simply not up to holding onto the left back spot and a 12 month deal for Brian MacLean seems like his last chance to prove himself.

Bill Bones Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 Hammell looked to be carrying an injury for most of the second half and signalled a few times to the bench that he was struggling. He was out on his feet for the last 10 mins or so. Don't think we can do much better than McLean-decent player who may improve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweed Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 I thought McLean was the best player on the pitch last week and I thought he was far from rubbish today though him and Hammell did disappear for their first. I'd still sign him up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
