Motherwell FC - A Thread For All Seasons


Recommended Posts

Good luck to Louis. Still an amazing player. Hope he stays fit. 

Would have taken him back for nostalgic reasons. Had a great game tonite. 

Edit to add. Faddy looks like he has enjoyed a few fish suppers 😉

Just out of interest, what are folks predictions for the new season. 

Champions - probably Celtic narrowly from Rangers this year. Dont really care tbh. Would like to beat one of them at least once tho. Can’t see it however.

Cups - Rangers to win the Scottish Cup and Aberdeen the league cup….

3rd in the league. Aberdeen I think, should be at a canter. But will depend on Barry Robson, ‘Ken like’. 
 

Hibs, Hearts & St Mirren to make up the rest of the top 6.

Relegation - Livi, eventually I think this will be their year and will go down. Narrowly over St Johnstone.

Motherwell - We will finish 8th in the league, lose to St Mirren in the league cup and papped out in the quarter finals off the Scottish Cup to Hearts.

Our player of the season will be Blair Spittal. 
Top Goal scorer will be Spittal or Wilkinson.

Stuart Kettlewell to break all managerial talking records for minutes in a season. 

1st - Celtic (0 wins in Europe)

2nd - Rangers (Knocked out of Europe in the EL RO16)

3rd - Hibs (Knocked out of Europe this month)

4th - Aberdeen (Will get EL groups but finish last there)

5th - St Mirren

6th - Hearts (Knocked out of Europe this month)

7th - Motherwell 

8th - Kilmarnock 

9th - Dundee

10th - Ross County 

11th - Livingston (Will lose the playoff)

12th - St Johnstone 

 

League Cup - Aberdeen 

Scottish Cup - Motherwell 

Our POTY - Slatterly 

Our YPOTY - Miller

Our top scorer - Spittal

Is your Spar still a Spar? Mine is a Co-op but will always call it a Spar.

That spar is still a spar. Is it a co-op or a Scotmid ? Hunners of scotmids round here that folk call co-op but I would never do that as used to work for proper co-op and would get pissed at folk casually interchanging the 2 brands !

How do you think we will line up on Saturday? With the young Arsenal boy coming in and Theo Blair joining maybe both will be in the squad. Will Lennon Miller start in the league I think he is more than ready.

I'd like to think Miller will start. I know he's young and will need carefully managed (which i believe Kettlewell will handle appropriately), but he's rightfully been named potm for his performances in the cup games and his confidence will be high. Get him in.

Apologies, it’s a Scotmid

I think the usual midfield 3 will play, with maybe spittal playing behind willkinson if obika isn't fit. Would be surprised if the 2 new guys start. (I think biereth will start regularly once hes bedded in).

Assuming everyone is fit, I see the back 5 being sods, mcginn, casey, Blaney, souare.

How does getting rid of 2 left sided defenders leave room for a RWB when we will still have 3 players on the books that have played that position THIS season 🤔

I wasnt suggesting it was like for like.

But SK has said bodies need to go out the door before more come in and thats the positions I think we need cover.

McGinn should be first choice RCB and Luca Ross isnt a defender, so we have SOD who is doing a job, but isnt as dynamic going forward as Max was.

You could argue we need more cover at LWB, but we have Soare and I though Ewan Wilson looked a decent back up. Signing someone else would block his development.

He signed a new deal until 2025 only last week.

Edit- really enjoyed all the Mika patter in here last night.

You are very welcome, sometimes the football gets in the way of the chat.
