He is a better defender than Ramsay and isn't bad going forward. Ramsay is right now the better player in an attacking sense but as an all round player O' Donnell just shades it. A full back's first job is to defend after all is said and done I don't think that status will last a lot longer but certainly for the next year or so. Get on the phone to Bologna - I’m sure Motherwell would deal at £3.3 million 2 Link to comment

Since his injury, looks like a bang average young laddie. Even last season, he was dodgy defensively and that has continued this season. There is no doubting the ability is there but at the moment, it’s all potential. Who knows how good he will go onto become. One thing is for sure, the current coaching team don’t have the capacity to improve him. Only to be quickly surpassed by this. ??? I can only hope these people aren't been genuine. 1 1 Link to comment
slippers Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I think they are trolling! absolute piss take! Imagine being a fan of the club and trying to talk down your best prospect! Dare say O'donnel turned down alot of European clubs to resign for Motherwell in the summer! Link to comment

If you think thats the only factor that needs considered you really are clueless. One of the players is a journeyman and one is going to have very good career at a high level. Transfer fee reflect whats potentially to come, hence why even the very top players move for much smaller fees in their mid 30s. 1 Link to comment

Let’s be honest. Imagine you are a football player. You are contacted by Aberdeen and are spoken or seen by Steven Gunn. You are then treated to a video chat with Davie Cormack. Unless you are deaf or just fucking desperate you would definitely think twice about signing on the dotted line. The old saying…”let me have a think about” would certainly spring to mind. 1 1 Link to comment

Equally there's no doubt that O'Donnell is at best worth a tenth of that figure. But O'Donnell is the finished article. He's now past the point where he's going to improve. He has years of experience that Ramsay lacks. And can defend. And can last 90 minutes. That's why he'll be in the Scotland squad for the remainder of the WC campaign. It might not last a whole lot longer but if we qualify, barring injury he'll be back up to Patterson. Ramsay's time will come but for now he needs to continue to play games and get experience. And improve his defending. 1 1 Link to comment

I think (but could be wrong) what Ten Caat is suggesting is that he's a more reliable pick than Ramsay at the moment. Clarke is generally a pretty cautious manager and a loyal one too - he knows what he's getting from O'Donnell (which isn't much to be fair), but the type of manager he is he'll opt for that over a riskier pick such as Ramsay. If Ramsay recaptures his form and plays consistently for the rest of the season he won't be able to leave him out though. Link to comment

I can't see us signing any less than 2, but I'd be very surprised if we sign more than 3. I'd guess 1 permanent signing and either 1 or 2 loans. Link to comment

As don said above Clarke is the type who’s loyal to players and O’Donnell was picked when there was no one else but he should not be in the squad in March. Link to comment

jamiesd Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Odonnell is boufing. Makes Winnie look like he was Maldini. Some boys on here really have lost the plot. Ramsay with Jet tied to him would be better than him. Link to comment
