Mccus28 Posted Monday at 07:47 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 07:47 PM Its quite quiet on the Miller front. I think that leaves us in a pickle.... 1- He plays pre-season but wont really be part of the plans as he will be gone 2- he gets injured and doesn't go anywhere I hate to say it but the quicker he is gone the more settled the team will be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted Monday at 07:56 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 07:56 PM Don't think it's a huge deal, tbh. I'd imagine he'll train with us until his move is finalised, but the manager will be trying out Miller-less formations in the early matches if he's still around. I would not be surprised if his move isn't finalised until August, especially if it is overseas with all the additional red tape involved.

If the club gets no bids then he carries on as normal and if that happens I've no doubt he will sign a new deal to protect his own and the clubs interests. He will move on but it will be at a time that suits him and the club and Until then he will be an integral part of the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turnbull’s example? That subject has been done to death and no amount of revisionism changes it. David Turnbull extended an existing deal for David Turnbull. Club benefitted from pre-agreed deal with Celtic. Thats not a slate on the player either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said, I'd be very surprised if he done that - it doesn't really make any sense for a player to do it. We can't tie anyone's arms up their backs and force them to buy Miller, but hopefully we've got club officials using their contacts to get a move up and running. I'm slightly concerned about the lack of movement so far, as we could be doing with the money to be fired straight into a project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Stall Posted Tuesday at 07:00 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 07:00 AM Cant see him signing any new deal without a guaranteed release clause, and while that may be fine for us with most players, Miller is a potential goldmine. Setting a clause too low does us no favours. Too high & he wont sign. Hypothetical clearly but then we have the issue of wages. No idea what the lad gets but given his age & our budget youv got to expect <£1500 per week. Would he really sign something like then when he can already 'probably' command upwards of £20k per week? The lad will be offski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewarkfanclub Posted Tuesday at 08:47 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 08:47 AM Have we just exchanged our new manager angst with Lennon Miller angst? I get its the close season and there isnt much to talk about, but no need to be getting worried The boy has an agent who will be making sure everyone in Europe is aware of his availability, over and above the clubs communications. The kinda clubs with the money to buy him dont have League Cup games to prepare for in 2 weeks. They will be in no rush. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted Tuesday at 10:20 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 10:20 AM Exactly. Miller and his dad have shown they know exactly what they are doing. Clubs are very aware of him (hence the bids we knocked back in January) and his agent will be bigging him up every day. As I have said before, it's 2 months before the window closes, and these types of deals take time. Plus, of course, Lennon has to want to join one of the clubs making an offer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not revisionism , all im saying is that , If the same thing happens with Miller, the beneficiaries will be the same ie Miller financially and career wise, the club financially so everyone is a winner. Of course all that assumes that there will be no acceptable bids received this transfer window, time will tell on that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throughthelaces Posted Tuesday at 12:24 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 12:24 PM Just to add that I think Miller is a great player with loads of potential. That said, since November last year, he hasn’t quite recaptured the early-season form he showed. Whether that’s down to the number of games or the decision to make him captain (which I still think was a poor call), he’s only shown flashes since then. As things stand, he’s still a Motherwell player, and I’d expect him to carry himself accordingly — and for the club to plan with him in mind until a deal is actually signed elsewhere.

weeyin Posted Tuesday at 12:28 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 12:28 PM Sometimes people forget Miller is only 18. As good as he is, he will have dips in performance like any other 18 year old. However, he is still very much worth 5+ million of any rich club's budget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted Tuesday at 01:56 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 01:56 PM Other than "It's on Youtbue" did the club post the kick-off time for today's match? (didn't want to start a new thread). EDIT: Never mind, after not finding it on Twitter or the Club Site, I found it in the email they sent today. 6pm UK time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electric Blues Posted Tuesday at 02:41 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 02:41 PM FWIW, a quick Google of "Motherwell Fixtures" delivers the relevant information in a summary box without having to even go to an actual web page. @weeyin, whether it does so in the States is a different question.
