Motherwell manager Stephen Robinson believes the club are close to securing Christopher Long on a new contract. Motherwell are the 24-year-old former Everton and Burnley player’s eighth club and Robinson believes he can thrive with a bit more stability. “We have put an arm round him and hopefully given him a home,” Robinson said. “There is a long way to go and a lot of things can change but we have to maintain what we did before. “If we can do that and compete against Aberdeen, then I believe we have the players to win football matches.”
