no they're about to lose Max Johnston but the big question is well they lose their Premiership status next season because I think motherwell are in trouble welcome back guys defog football we all knew this day was coming but Max Johnson is set to leave motherwell he is close to joining Austrian Bundesliga runner-ups storm grass after rejecting a new contract at far Park is contract runs out he will not be at the club he will leave the club before the new season it's just a matter of when and it looks like that win has finally come with the Austrian Club set to get his signature now they are in the Champions League qualifier so this seems like it would be a big move for Max Johnson he certainly didn't press last season at motherwell outside of Kevin fanfine he was probably the best player that they had and again it comes down to Scottish clubs just not doing the business right not getting players tied down to longer deals not being willing to invest a bit of money to offer them big contracts therefore when they do move on they can get the rewards they can reap the benefits of these players so I think we're going to see this happen time and time again and tell Scottish clubs are actually going to take a risk spend a little bit of money offer good talented playoffs three four five yield deals until that starts happening then we're probably going to see these Scottish clubs time and time again get ripped off and lose our best players for enough and look at Celtic kyogo four years Mida four yields that is what molar oil should have been doing as soon as Kevin fun Finn started banging and I get he was a bit older so maybe not a four year deal but Max Johnson's 19. they should have been getting this guy tied down to a big contract and then and even offering a bit more money than you think it's worth but you will get all that back and more when you sell them on their big Club no they're getting nothing for them because he's leaving for free is it actually a free though yeah it's a free that's a discretion I can't believe I've actually let that happen his contracts up is that so that's what it was for free why did I read somewhere it was 350. it's nothing no it's contract's done that's fake news it's a discrete it's a disgrace for this and fine you're right how can motherwell replace that amount of goals and also this guy who if you keep for like three years I'm missing if you came for three years but if you've got this guy next year on like a four year deal you're making easily a couple of million yep definitely no they're going down well managerst York kettlebell has came out he's described this as a huge loss and he said that motherwell need to protect their Investments this is what he had to say there is a motorbike outside I wish it would off but right now it's not so I'm just gonna have to talk a little bit louder anyway this is what the shortcut oil had to say on the deal quote he was lighting things up at Cove Rangers the English clubs do it very well they don't let their young Talent out on loan until they have signed New Deals and they protect their football club their investment and time spent with them we didn't do that with Max Johnson we knew the situation was going to come Max becomes a huge loss but I wish him nothing but the best in the future terrific young man really understands where he wants to go in his career fully dedicated and of course it may be fully dedicated football but obviously he is not fully dedicated to motherwell uh women also went on to describe this as being a slow and difficult summer and because he hasn't really brought anybody in of notice and sex of his main starters from his starting 11 last season have left the club so yeah no when you look at this I do see motherwell struggling big time next season they're not gonna have the Stewart kettlebell new manager bounce as well and I'm no disrespect to shortcut well but I don't believe he is a good a manager as results would suggest last season I think they're on a really good run of form they rode the momentum but when you start a new season that momentum pretty much disappears and maybe if you keep your squad together and you can add a couple of players to it you can carry on that momentum but they ain't gonna have that they've lost Johnson they've lost fan Fiend The Floss multiple starters I think motherwell are going to struggle big time this season and I think unless something changes and we see them get very active and bringing a lot of players in the transfer market I think they are one of the favorites for relegation I agree with that I look at Dundee the vaccine they've made extravagant sirens in the Mexican League which some people can laugh at but I said in the food yesterday fair play Celtic went to Japan the a-league Aberdeen of went Eastern Europe why not go to the Mexican League try something different it's better than losing your top players ain't it yeah it's like you can't we can't go down yourself you can't go the Scottish clubs can't go to these English teams and try and compete with inflation down there on the the playoffs the way they're priced you just realized that we can't do it if I was predicting who would finish well right now I'd put him over well 12. I think they are I think they're around about there um I think St Johnston will struggle as well true at the moment I'm kind of more Wilson Johnston uh I think Rice County will do better I think Ross County will improve on last season I don't see them finishing last uh Livingston are always just too good under David Martin Dale to go down Hanks and meron will be too good to be in a relegation battle uh who else have we got and I think khalmonic will kick on worth um daily machines and it remains to be seen how Tony Dockery does his first time as managing from uh you know being the boss normally he's a number two but right now I think the three teams that will be in those relegation places are Dundee St Johnson motherwell and I've had to pick one I would probably go in motherwell to get relegated right now I need 29 goals for a team that far it's it's it's almost unreplaceable it is because they cannot they don't have the money to do it yeah so for that reason yeah I put them 12 on who they're gonna bring in I don't see him bringing in anybody as well they did get money for Kevin fanfinobi it wasn't that much but it was still a decent amount and I think they're gonna have to infest that they're gonna have to spend that or else like I said it won't be a long long season there are some good players I mean I'm not saying this mother oil team is it's not horrible by any means but I I think need to add to it and I'm just not really seeing that so I mean Molly will probably have other teams in the league have had the apart from Hearts the pro well I'd say Hearts I would say Hearts haven't had a bad transfer window because Hearts haven't really them Hearts haven't lost 29 goals let's put it that way no Hearts have lost in Alien Humphries which sucks but oh absolutely yeah apparently but no motherwell losing fan is that's more important than them losing sex of the starting eleven yeah Band theme was massive and you you take came out tomorrow you're going to notice it no absolutely like fan theme will be a bigger lost him all the well than like you can't even like then your I will be the Celtic no no no contest easily there's gonna be a massive massive loss and then in my opinion they're losing their second best player max Jones I've ever lost in the five players at left Rangers yeah so that's it guys let us know what you think them below Max Johnson set to leave motherwell I think it's gonna be a long season for them don't get me wrong transfer Windows still open so they can change it around they can bring players in but will they bring players and that is the big question Short Cat oil says it has been uh a disappointing summer transfer window for them so far we'll find out if it gets better in the next couple of weeks but that's it guys catch the next one for football
