I've really liked the look of Hateley this season so I'm chuffed to see him get so much credit after a fine performance today. He offers a real attacking outlet up the right and is strong defensively. My motm however goes to Law, integral to all of our attacking play. His ability to carry the ball while under pressure is tremendous.

Has to be Carswell for me. Jennings needs someone to do the running for him.

If Higdon is out I'd be inclined to bring in Saunders for McHugh and revert to a 451. We would pose more of a goal threat.

I thought Mehmet developed well during his time at St Mirren. He would provide the ideal foil for Murphy but it is unlikely we could afford him as it would appear most of our budget has been spent on Law and Higdon.

Levein has been indicating that he likes to add 4 or 5 future prospects to the core of his friendly squads. That seems fair enough but the jury is out on his choices. The inclusion of the Forrest is the open to criticism as he faded away badly last season. He did go on to say that these future prospects are likely to be replaced by older heads in the qualifying games.

Paul Gallagher is the one that gets me. Outstanding by all accounts last season. Wish one of the journalists would question him on it. As long as Steven Fletcher is out the squad, Levein isn't the man for the job.

On the last two occasions that Levein has been at a Motherwell game, Murphy has been non-existent. If he shows what we know he is capable of on a more regular basis, he will be in the squad. I imagine a good performance this Sunday will propel him to first in line should there be any call-offs.

Hopefully they get a tough game on Thursday. Sutton a nap to score. We need a striker to have a chance of winning.

If either team had a clinical centre forward, it would have been an enthralling game. Typical early season tippy tappy stuff. Really like the look of Law.

At last, someone on the same wavelength as me when it comes to rating Goodwillie. I take great interest in seeing Scottish talent progress but the hype surrounding Goodwillie is media driven imo. I'm sure he will go on to carve out a decent career but he is far away from being a top Scottish talent.

That is another decent signing. As well as we played last week, I expect us to struggle away from home this season.

Murphy ability sticks out like a sore thumb hence the interest in him and we are in need of the cash.

Barring injury, it seems inevitable he will be away in the coming weeks. I very much doubt Parkhead will be his destination though.

Hammell turned back the years, vintage display. What a difference it makes to have a proper midfielder in front of him.

I'm actually delighted with that. Best looking shirt in years.

Tremendous piece of business if we can pull it off. Gunning has the potential to make us a good few quid in the years to come.

Fair few names getting mentioned re h**s transfer spree, Murphy and Murray davidson supposedly 2 of the more likely deals...

The silence is deafning, as usual. The less likely this looks, the more likely Murphy or Randolph will be sold this summer.

I have my doubts that McFadden will still be playing by the time he is 33/34. He's taken a tanking from injuries over the years.

Another summer, another issue with the strips. Many teams who are supplied by Puma currently have both their new home and away kits on sale.

Think Graham Carey was mentioned on here once or twice. Completed his move to St Mirren. They seem to be raising their game a wee bit this summer.

Cillian Sheridan getting linked with Hibs in the Record as he looks for a return to Scotland. Split opinion amongst our support but I thought there was plenty potential there during his time at Motherwell.

1 permanent deal and a couple of loans will do the trick.

Anytime I've watched Scotland Under-21s, Murphy has always looked the superior player. Granted Goodwillie has developed well this season and banged in the goals but I still think Murphy has much more to offer.

Agreed. Murphy has the superior talent, mentality and mindset.
