Otherwise we are pretty short there, with only SOD or Halliday ever having played there before? Neither have the legs to do what Longelo does.....

mio Posted August 29 Report Share Posted August 29 Good luck to young Wilson, i understand the reasoning for going out on loan and I think he’ll do well at Raith. There’s a talent there and playing every week will develop him. I can honestly see him coming back a better player. I know a few of you have panned him but I’ve felt the last couple of times he came on he did ok. anyway, good luck Ewan 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuwell2 Posted August 29 Report Share Posted August 29 I like Ewan and believe he’s still a good player so hopefully this will benefit his development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellfan Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 Good luck to Ewan. With the right system and carefully managed minutes, he should do really well at Raith. What it means for his long-term future as a Motherwell player, though, I’m not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manager has sussed it out that he's a bit limited for us. Making way for someone else he is happier with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orinoco Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 As is said in the other thread. If Balmer goes, and Slattery's injury we need further bodies in. Left back cover, Center Backs, Midfield Suppose there is always players out of contract, but the deadline is fast approaching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeyin Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 We have quite a few midfielders, and a few players who can cover in mid (like SOD), so if I had to choose, I'd still be looking at defenders first. I know it doesn't always work that way, however, as we can only sign who is available and wants to join. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left back cover, Center Backs, Midfield Suppose there is always players out of contract, but the deadline is fast approaching. I think if Balmer goes, we sign one centre back. Also wouldn't be surprised if we signed a left sided centre back who can also play left back (like Charles Dunne, except good) so making it one defender brought in rather than two.. Might see a midfielder but with the arrival of Priestman and McGhee able to play defensive midfield, thr manager may feel he has Just for attacking midfield and can move Fadinger forward to it if required... I know managers always say this but the manager (and Caldwell the other day) made mention of getting the right players. And we haven't signed many jersey fillers this summer. Wondering if that might mean that JBA would rather go with what he has rather than sign the 'wrong' player... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy H Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 Rumours in the other place that Slattery has been sold! Hope it is not true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orinoco Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 If true, we dont know what has been said behind the scenes. Perhaps it was always the intention to sell him this window, as he was never going to resign another contract. Hearts splashed £1.5/7m on a player and Hibs £1m bench warmer, lets us see what we are competing against. We do need some more bodies in.

thewelllfan Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 We need 2 maybe 3 more signings - CB, (LB on loan) as cover and an attacking midfielder if Slattery is injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goalie has been a priority for me since JBA’s style of play become evident in the league cup opener against Clyde. Hopefully we are trying to move Ox on and bring in a quality replacement. That and an assured centre half top of my wishlist. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
