Good follow up

When you play with goalie that far out. You cannot afford to make any mistakes.

Yassss

So how many of us called it, loosing a goal from distance like that.

Certainly makes you wonder.

Or…. Gonnae no dae that

I think having a big powerful striker in our squad would be good to have as an option. Always good to have different options to try during games or against different opposition or in varying weather and field conditions.

Are the league cups games going to be on Motherwell TV?

I missed that “rumour”??

Couldn’t be arsed watching any of that club World Cup

Are livingstone not upgrading their surface just now?

Did he actually play any minutes?

If only we could find another Peter Hartley.

And once again Well girl’s response will be “lightweight”

I was really referring to Miller but same applies to Sparrow.

I really hope so. Either that or England. Basically not another Scottish team.

That's why women make such good archaeologists, they're very good at digging up the past.

It’s good to have different styles of strikers, or players for that matter. That was one of the things I really like when McAll was the manager. We had so many attacking weapons that defenses couldn’t nullify them all. Higdon, Ojamma, Humphrey, Law, Faddy.

Hopefully he can get enough players in to fit the system he wants to play.

Who are the remaining players we are still in dialogue with?

The known options were very uninspiring, some maybe even scary!! I’m glad we are taking a chance on an unknown quantity. Not sure if it makes any difference to our chances of success or failure but at least it’s an unknown. With the ususual crowd I think the odds were more in favor of failure

I think what we have is a glut of right backs. We need to concentrate on players playing in their best position, although I understand last season we had no choice due to all the injuries. We should at least start the season that way, so I think that just leaves Balmer to partner Gordon and I believe we need to improve on that. I can see McGinn and Koutroumbis sharing playing time at right back as it is going to be hard for either of them to give 100% for 90 mins.

Yep! Definitely need at least 1 solid centre back to go with Gordon and perhaps another for back up. My take on McGhee was that he would be a defensive midfielder, not part of a back 3 or 4. Could put McGinn there at a push but would rather keep him for right full back to fight it out with Koutroumbis for starting position. Or switching them out during games to keep up the energy level needed for an overlapping full back.

I don’t see an image in either of those last two posts

I thought I read he prefers 4-3-3? So I would imagine he’ll look at what he has and see what he needs and determine our chances of getting the right players in to make that work.
