EDDIE HOWE: "ON LEWIS GRABBAN SITUATION"

He was just interviewed (Sky Sports News). He said Lewis Grabban is not with him training; he is training on his own.

He confirmed it was out of his hands and that he wasn't dealing with his potential transfer. He went on to say that although he wasn't sure, he could still go this window!

I would say from what he said, he's finished there and they want shot of him. It looks like it's just a 'fee' and whether anyone else decides to hijack the deal and pay the money they want (which looks like we feel is too high)

If I was a betting man, which I am not, I would bet on him being here by the end of tomorrow night!

I think Warnock believes he's overpriced and that's why we are now after Madine.

But his average is a goal every 3 games. Proven at this level and has bagged 12 this season in a team who are rock bottom creating little or nothing.

I think this is more down to the club not being prepared to stump up the money to back NW.

Maybe its down to grabban to sort things out with Bournemouth, i think its obvious hes had a falling out there , why else would he be training on his own, Bournemouth need to make a decision , offload him or continue paying his wages for a player who clearly has no future there .

I think it more likely that the stumbling block is his wages. According to Bournmouth fans he is on £30,000 a week. With eighteen months left on his contract, he's hardly likely to accept half that wage with City!
