rowsdower Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 (edited) Is Mikey Devlin still broken? Noticed he'd left Fleetwood. I'll answer my own question, he's only played a couple of games, so I guess yes. Edited January 13, 2023 by rowsdower 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with you and up for Danzaki breakfast show (mainly due to the 10 month old baby in my house) Edit: 3 mins, Riku fell over. He's playing as one of 2 forwards who are sitting behind the striker. But more worryingly there is a player called Josh Laws and another called Callan Elliot playing here. Alt universe Motherwell in play. Shudder. 8mins: Bold Riku played a nice through ball in for an assist which the other player stuck in the net. Alas, it was just offside so goal chopped off. 14mins: Shout out for the Well. Bit of chat about Danzaki potentially moving to us and then the commentator said 'they've just signed Mikael Mandron from League 2 Gillingham, unbelievably'. More in relation to the SPFL signing Aussie or Aussie based players I think rather than throwing Mika some shade. 25 mins: chance for Riku. Could have got a quick shot away in and about the penalty spot but was tight so tried to take a touch. He's a bit more involved now. Promising I'd say so far. Pretty quick, closing the ball down all over and getting in good spots in the box. 40 mins: Riku dropped out the game for a wee while there as Brisbane got a bit deep but decent few touches last few mins. He's linking things up nice enough between midfield when he can and pretty tidy ball use wise. Often the most forward player in the team making runs and hovering about the penalty spot. Nice bit if two footed skill out wide there to play a team mate in. Got sacked in the middle of the park where he could have made a quicker decison. Half time: If we do sign him, on that first half showing he could be a decent addition. He's not been kicked by Alan Power before though so would be interested to see how that side of his game is. 60: Got bored and watched the golf for a bit. The game quality is....not great. From what I can see Riku still making good forward runs into the box but the ball is getting pinged over him. He's had the ball a couple of times on edge of box but getting crowded out. 72: Riku aff. Decent shift if not spectacular. A lot of that down to how poor Brisbane are I'd say as he wasn't really in the game for large parts even even though he was continually asking for the ball.

rowsdower Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Roar are fair kicking the shit out of wellington. The standard isnt great so far, not sure if that's indicative of the league as a whole. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was sure I’d seen it before. It’s Aster Vranckx playing for KV Mechelen - link On first glance the colours are similar to Bradford but nah it’s not Mandron. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezz Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 (edited) My sincerest apologies to big Mik for confusing him with that jobber. Just watched back SH’s presser from yesterday, I’m very much reading between the lines here but I thought his comments around Penney suggested there was a chance he was sticking around…‘hopefully after the game we’ll be able to confirm that one way it another’. Maybe reading far too much into it but the inclusion of ‘hopefully’ sounds more positive..maybe? Edited January 14, 2023 by dezz 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, having complained for ages about being soft, going with Spittal and Goss in the same midfield trio is not the move I'd make. On the basis 3-5-2 is off the table, I'd go: MJ, McGinn, Lamie, Penney Cornelius, Maguire (!), Goss Spittal, KVV, Mckinstry But let's be honest, there is no great option available. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one m in Motherwell Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 (edited) Is Mandron likely to be registered in time? Regardless, I’d go: Kelly Johnston Sol Lamie McGinn Penney Crankshaw Cornelius McKinstry (or Tierney) KVV Mandron (or McKinstry) McGinn and Penney as wing backs, but McGinn could tuck into the midfield if needed with Johnston pushing out. f**k it, throw the newbies in, what’s the worst that could happen?
