Scott Burns reports that we have at least two more signings on the way, one of which could be winger Regan Charles-Cook.

He was good at ross county..going to be some forward line...was a winger from memory?

None of our players are, that's why they're with our club. Even Lennon Miller wasn't 'top-level' - although we all hope that he will be one day.

If a so-called top-level striker needs squad competition plus the time and patience he’s already had to ‘come good,’ then perhaps he wasn’t top-level to begin with.

Top level players tend not to sign for Motherwell so you may be right. I hope Stamatelopoulos comes good and contributes more to the team, but so far for me I've seen nothing to suggest that will happen.

If we add Charles-Cook and a holding midfielder I think we've had a decent window. Could probably do with shifting Balmer and replacing him if JBA doesn't fancy him. if we sign Cook I'd be getting Luca Ross out on loan to get game time as well. Probably finish somewhere from 6th-9th.

Still think we're light in central defence. Ideally I'd like to see 2 new defenders arrive.

Totally agree if Balmer isn't fancied get him out and get a couple in to fit playing style the boss wants also someone with a bit more height in the central of defence.

Thats not how some human beings work though, is it? Competition for places is healthy. I know that you know that!

I just don't see it mate

Cbs we have Gordon, Mcginn, Balmer, Mcghee with SOD who can also play there

Rbs - JK, Sparrow, SOD

Lbs - Longelo, Wilson

unless you move on 1/2 there's no way we sign anymore.

I think we are probably fine as we are. But we ecould defo do with moving Balmer on for a ball playing version. Having someone on the bench the manager doesnt fancy isnt a strong place ro be.

The reported £250K fee suggests he was meant to be ‘top level’ for us. It’s all relative.

See above.

I didn’t say it wasn’t healthy. I meant that it shouldn’t take that to push our expensive signing, by our standards, to prove his worth in goals.
