Wimmer on Miller, 'honesty' of Scottish game and top-six race

[ASFN Admin]

Motherwell manager Michael Wimmer has been speaking to the media before his side's trip to face Aberdeen this weekend.

Here are the key points from his press conference:

• Wimmer says it was a "brilliant experience and the best thing" for Lennon Miller to be away with the Scotland squad and learn from players like John McGinn and Andy Robertson, not only on the pitch but how they conduct themselves off it.
• The German says he is loving his time in Scotland and is also enjoying the "honesty of the Scottish game".
• Wimmer thinks the table is so tight that the race for top six will go to gameday 33, but warns it's important not think beyond Saturday's game against Aberdeen.
• He says it is "brilliant" that Motherwell have sold their full allocation for the trip to Pittodrie, and it's the management and squad's job now to make the fans happy.
• The German knows Aberdeen will be a tough game - "they have a great manager and good players, especially on offence" - but he wants to be a "tough opponent for them, and with 20,000 supporters, it will be great to be on the pitch on Saturday".
