robsterwood Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago 5 minutes ago, MelvinBragg said: I take your point but if someone was to ask me about Nicholson or various others we've had at Fir Park my first instinctive answer would be 'injury prone'. Sometimes it's just that your instinctive answer is right. As in Louis Moult or Rolando Aarons. Sometimes not. As is pointed out in the case of Chris Porter as weeyin pointed out... Just worthwhile having a range of opinions. I'll confess I don't know if he can fill in at left back and with Wilson out on loan, I kind of assumed we'd sign a defender that could play left centre back and also cover Longelo at left back... I don't think he could cover at left back looking at where he's played before. Maybe we are getting another l back in. Still time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spit_It_Out Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Dont know much about him but plus point Welsh is 6ft 3 needing a wee bit of height at the back but i must admit still dont think its enough cover at the back. Hopefully we get a couple in and its been a good transfer window for us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeyin Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago I'd prefer a permanent move over a loan - not a fan of loans from clubs in the same division. I have no idea how good he is, but JBA is looking for a player that can fit into his system better than our current central defenders. You can argue whether that makes them a better player, or just a better fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robsterwood Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Jba and our recruitment look at database stats. Must show decent stats when playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scales is a special case , the plastics think hes the best central defender in the world , must be because hes Irish, thick cunts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewarkfanclub Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Welsh will be decent with the ball at his feet which is potentially why we have gone for him. But my impression, and backed up by a Celtic supporting mate, is that he is a bit on the soft side physically and prone to injuries. In the absence of a better option, I guess he will need to do, but not one I will be getting delirious about. A left back is still required. So hopefully we have one more incoming.

Mind you it is the Beeb we are taking about BBC report is quiet ambiguous says he’s on his way out but doesn’t mention if it’s permanent.

They really dont. He was their MOTM yesterday, but most dont rate him, at Champions League Level at least. The CB equivalent of Greg Taylor in their eyes. That said, Id take Greg Taylor at Fir Park in a second, so its all relative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heard on Saturday, from a good source we had signed a centre half, but he failed the medical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the way some folk go on, failing a medical is statutory for signing a contract 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Throughthelaces Posted 11 minutes ago Report Share Posted 11 minutes ago If we've signed Welsh it's a fantastic piece of business for us young enough to develop if we can keep him fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
