I do think he's good when he is on top form. Misses too many sitters though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s the most natural and talented striker in our squad All good strikers miss sitters the secret is to keep putting yourself in the position and the goals will come 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thisGRAEME Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Some daft c**t went through him on a podcast a few weeks ago, I'd be right tickled if he'd listened. I do really like him though. I'd have a team of 9 Scousers, Bevis and Campbell if it was up to me though. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Aldo Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Well he misses one a gameAgreed. There was one against Coleraine the other night where he did the hard part and took it past the defender but then failed to finish what looked like a fairly straightforward chance at the near post. I like Long as a player but he's a torn faced b*****d who only seems to turn up when it suits him. He could score 20 this season and I'd still struggle to take to him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 A wee bit of redemption for Grimmy this weekend. Might end up being the guy that fills gaps for us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might end up being the guy that fills gaps for us. Mentioned that in the match thread. Although he didn't see too much of the ball I thought his role was interesting in that we seemed to be switching between the 352 and a 442 with Grimshaw tucking in to midfield and Lamie moving into LB. It was pretty fluid but also a definite throwback to the Thunderdome era. Incidentally, it's worth mentioning the role O'Donnell's having. His and Grimmy's heatmaps are below along with the focus of our attacks. Edited September 21, 2020 by capt_oats 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0Neils40yarder Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 19 hours ago, welldaft said: It was. Probably a message to his critics this season. He really is an enigma. He clearly has huge talent and when he is on point he is well worth his place in the starting 11. I saw someone mention somewhere we have had plenty of strikers or players that would have spurned that chance from Lewis cock up. It was a good finish as was his disallowed goal. He has rapid pace and his ability to go past defenders inside and outside the box whilst starting behind or level is impressive. If he could apply himself 100% in every game he would be earning more money at a much better club than Motherwell. Better? f**k sake, there are many clubs bigger, but none better than Motherwell 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezz Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 I see that’s the contract offer officially on the table for wee Al now. I doubt he’ll sign it but at least the offer should act as a protection for the training compensation. As much as I’d love him to stay, he’s more than earned his chance to go make some cash for himself. I also doubt the level of any offers we’d get now or in January would be worth considering when balanced against the likely training compensation and his worth/influence to the team over the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie McSquackle Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 I assume we've offered this before and he hasn't signed it. This is basically making a public announcement to appease the fans who will moan that we didn't try to get him to stay. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you see English teams spunk millions on bang average players. I know we are biased but if no-one comes in with a bid before deadline it will be baffling. FWIW I would like to see him stay for this season especially so if he signs a contract extension. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazylegsjoe_mfc Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 If he signs a one-year deal then as much as it will be good to have another year of him in the team, that's us effectively signing away our rights to any revenue/compensation. If we are thinking of profiting out of him, then it would need to be at least a two-year deal and sadly I really can't see that happening. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
