Londonwell Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 (edited) Shout on Steelmenonline that the mystery midfielder is Ryan Gauld, obviously it’s not, but will be interesting to see if he ends up back in Scotland or sticks it out following Sporting’s meltdown. There was also an ITK type claiming Liam Henderson, which doesn’t even require comment. Edited June 19, 2018 by Londonwell 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YassinMoutaouakil Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 I love the idea of Gauld going abroad to immerse himself in the technical side of the game before deciding he'd rather pack it in and kick people around Fir Park for 90 minutes while the ball sails over his head. Make it happen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swello Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 The Gauld shout is a laugh - but if we signed a player of that type, the folk that have turned into total football purists over the past season would quickly be back into the "he doesnae put a tackle in" and "lazy bastart" mode in no time. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Londonwell Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Andy Rose would still get the nod in front of him. At least he runs aboot!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be interesting to see who gets on better at that level out of him and Demi. I'd imagine most people's money would be on MacLean. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casagolda Posted June 20, 2018 Author Share Posted June 20, 2018 Decent move for Maclean, imagine that will be it for him at Fir Park though. Which would be a shame really as he’s shown some potential in the limited game time he did get, for whatever reason though his face just didn’t seem to fit under Robinson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madton Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 (edited) What kind of player are we getting? Think he will do well in Championship? What's his best position? We have called him a young forward who can play out wide on our official site but notice you have down as a midfielder!

We have called him a young forward who can play out wide on our official site but notice you have down as a midfielder! I think he'll be fine in the Championship. I always saw him as a quite natural successor to Cadden at right midfield for is but that's kind of gone out the window since we've had a reasonable amount of success with a back 3 with wing backs. He's never a wing back and there seemed to be a ton of options ahead of him in the central area. I'd say he's probably best described as an attacking midfielder. He could easily do a job as a #10, right mid in a 442 or as part of a 3 in a 433. It'd be a shame if that's it for him with us because he's not actually done that much wrong in his time. However at his age he 100% needs games so this seems like a good move for him. I notice we've got a recall option for him after 6 months.

thisGRAEME Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Yeah, bit disappointed with how things worked out with MacLean tbh. Any time I see him, he looks great, seems to be a fit guy, just hasn't been given much more than a sniff. Hope he does well and is recalled at Christmas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desp Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Looking forward to the entire Motherwell support thinking he'll be amazing simply because he's got an exotic sounding name. What I will say is that after looking at the wee tweets MFC put out announcing the signings, he's got a far better signature than Aaron Taylor-Sinclair. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swello Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 (edited) We've not been dabbling in the furriners market much recently - so it will be interesting to see what made us change approach for this guy. I'm at the stage of the close season where I'm still enjoying the saturdays off but where we've got some new players that I'd like to see in action - keen to see this guy in particular as you'd have to hope he's very different to what we have. ETA - I see 'Flow was the interviewer on the video with Gorrin, the crying must be driving him mad already and he's headed into work Edited June 20, 2018 by Swello 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s me convinced. Top 1 minimum next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swello Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Also - I'm going to call him "Alejandro" instead of Alex. Much more exotic-er. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
