Former Motherwell Fc Players Thread

Lennon was never getting in that midfield its pretty stacked tbh the defence however nobody can tell me Paul McGinn didnt deserved a call up christ played nearly every game this season been outstanding half these players have hardly played ffs.

Clarke is far to loyal to players that even dont have to be playing or even playing well.

The fact Angus Gunn keeps getting picked just tells me how dire that position is for us cause he is possibly one of the worst overated Goalies I have ever seen.

Never mind McGinn, trying to tell me Ralston deserves to be there ahead of O'Donnell..?

I can't see past Hanley over Welsh tbh... Welsh is continually overlooked for some reason.

Agree re Miller - the midfield is our best area, suspect he needed a stronger last half season to be included.

Aye true I know both have been flawless maybe even Welsh but then Motherwell have played classy amazing football this season so that was probably the reason they never got a sniff!😉

I know you're (half) joking, but I imagine that also contributed. Scotland set up to play the anti-JBA style of football that some of our players might struggle with. 

I still say that our victory over Denmark was due to our best players' individual brilliance DESPITE Clarke's tactics. 

If you look at the match stats, they were horrendous. 30% possession in a home game we had to win. 10 shots to Denmark's 18 and 14 touches in the opposition box to Denmark's 40.

Slattery leaving confirmed.

I’m really disappointed for Lennon but since not getting a minute in the March double header while remaining a peripheral figure at Udinese, his exclusion isn’t a huge surprise. 

I haven’t seen any mention of a reserve list but he’s presumably on that. I personally think Welsh should be too if Hanley doesn’t recover from his injury. 

As for McGinn, he said before the Celtic game that his injury ended any slim chance he had.

Yes, I always felt we won that game despite our manager. The players pulled us out of the fire. Clarke's pressers are direly depressing for me  so God knows the effect he has on the players.

Looks like another Tournament Best Supporters/Worst Team scenario in the making.
