Agreed...I'd have a nucleus of 18-20 experienced guys and 4 or 5, younger lads who we think could benefit from higher level exposure...my 5 would be Porteous, Hickey, Turnbull, Gilmour when fit, and Hornby
I dont believe I said he was the messiah, I suggested that hes a far more talented person than the three players you've mentioned.
...and I've nae Motherwell specs where he is concerned, as he isn't a Motherwll player anymore.
My bad...without going full Tadger1996, I'd far rather see the likes of Porteous getting a cap ahead of Gallacher and a guy like Hickey getting exposure to the full squad over someone like SOD
Turnbull is a better player than McGregor and Christie, and by a distance better than Ferguson. Had he played for Hibs or Aberdeen, he would've been in squads a couple of seasons ago
Performing in the spl for years, but consistently failing on the international scene...Turnbull should have been called up during the season prior to his injury, he is a far better player than the two you've mentioned
The quotes I seen today attributed to Mr Clarke concern me...he has stated that he hasnt seen any matches in the flesh since the season started and that he thinks watching players on the TV is every bit as good as watching them from the stands.
Added to the fact he has called Ryan Jack up despite him being injured for the past 3 weeks, and the absolutely crazy decision to include SOD and Declan Gallacher in the squad, despite being tragically shite for Motherwell this season defies belief.
