If there are any such agreements in place then Clarke is in the wrong job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure we can just keep changing managers in a panic every few games, McLeish excepted as anyone could see the catastrophe that was about to unfold. We need to see signs of progress that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mccaughey85 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 If any midfielders pull out then that would be a great chance for Turnbull or Ferguson to be called up as replacements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COLT NY Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Amazing that there's as many players based in Sheffield in this squad as there are based in Glasgow, and 5 times those based in Edinburgh and Aberdeen combined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol not sure you would have to ask Clarke that question. Personally I am only suggesting calling him up if a couple of centre midfielders pull out. Hes not really earned a call up before the guys in the squad. Most of our centre midfielders are playing epl or have been performing well in the spl for years ie christie and mcgregor.

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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turnbull might be better but hes only really had 1 good season in the spl so hes not exactly going to get in ahead of alot our midfielders who are playing epl or guys like christie.

Had he played for Hibs or Aberdeen, he would've been in squads a couple of seasons ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whys he better than christie, you need to take off the motherwell specs. He's a talented young player but hes not necessarily done more than Ferguson or christie to warrant being called up before them. Mcgregors been a constant performer for a team winning titles and beating teams like rennes or lazio. He's been shit for Scotland but he's in the squad on merit. Turnbull will get his chance soon enough but hes not the messiah you think he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

Looks like it's something that should be done but would cause a riot if it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcgregor is one of those but I can't imagine Clarke dropping him from the squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
