    Thought he was away to Bali Utd :scratchhead:

    He stepped off the plane in Indonesia and he started essentially frying so they just put him back on the plane for his own safety. Currently waiting in the passenger lounge at Prestwick until this heatwave passes.

    That’s the kind of formation I would make the opposition team when I was cheating in football manager.

    Have you seen him play over the last 2 years? He's not progressed at all since his first run in team.

    What to you gauge as progression?

    • 2014/15 season - 3 apperances
    • 2015/16 season - 21 apperances
    • 2016/17 season - 42 apperances, called up to the Scotland Under 21 team
    • 2017/18 season - 44 apperances, Scotland U21s and now called up at an international level.

    When he was injured this season we went on about a 10 game losing streak.

    He is 21 years old and has played over 100 games for Motherwell. He must be doing something right!

    If I was Chris Cadden I'd be looking to leave Motherwell this summer.

    It's painfully clear however that he's at best stagnated since he burst onto the scene 2 and a half years ago.  .

    He has just been called up to the full Scotland squad, been a first team regular all season and played in two cup finals...

    I am sorry but I thought we were bringing players that we could sell on and I don't think Ciftci will fall into that category.

    That can't work everytime though. Nadir is 26 years old, we are in a position to sign him as Celtic are paying him off. If he has one good season with us then there is a chance a Championship side might sign him for £500K . Or he might just stay with us for 3 seasons and get double figures each time. I have seen enough this season to confince me he is a really good player and he also seems to be really happy at Motherwell. 

    He can eat as many Kebabs as he wants, as long as he continues to nutmeg three accies payers in a row then knock it into the pokey.

  6. Ciftci is silky as fuck. Knock a few pounds off him and he will tear defences in the SPL a new arsehole. Some of the stuff he was doing against Hamilton was outrageous and to be honest thats what I want to pay to watch. His rabona pass in the middle of the park against Accies was one of my highlights of the season.

  7. I'd have Nadir back, get a pre season under him and he could be some player for us.

    Aldred, sign up 100%

    McHugh, squad player status has been confirmed over the last few weeks, not sure where i see his role in the team.

    Gutted if Carson goes, but I doubt we have much say in the matter. Will be really hard to replace him.

    O'Halloran - would be the type of player we need, we lack pace in the side.

     

  8. If Celtic want Carson they will get him unfortunatley, but we are in a strong position to make a massive amount of money on him as they are despereate to get someone in before the end of the day.

     

    Would be gutted if he went though as it leaves us in a really difficult postion trying to replace him outside of the transfer window and I am not conviced the defence have much confidence in Griffiths. Could potentially cost us a place in the top six in my opinion.

  9. Brutal stuff. Things I noticed tonight.

     

    Big Nadir looks a player.

    Kipre was the best player on the park.

    Main looks a handful.

    Dunne needs to calm down when he has the ball at his feet.

    Cadden needs to stop trying to cross too early and move the ball to the byeline.

    Our captain needs to use the ball much better.

     

    All in all a decent result against a big Heffer of a opposition.

  10.  

     

    The guy has scored 8 goals in three years, has pissed his career up a wall and has a habit of biting people...

     

    Would fit right into the current Beast mode Motherwell, where we score fuck all goals and just kick fuck out of people.

  11. So if I am reading this right, we have pretty much put together a new team of reasonably young sellable players, kept our best striker and also made £1.5 million in transfer fees and most of that on player not even on on our books.

     

    Not too shabby Motherwell FC, not too shabby at all...
