But would he be an improvement on our current strikers? Of course he would.
Need to be realistic with potential signings and Grabban falls into that category - he’s a goalscorer and things could be different at this level with a different club.
A very hardworking player too, which would fit in with the current squad.
I could understand this signing and be reasonably happy with it - if true.

£2mill yeah but £9mill do me a favour. If this happens Warnock is desperate.

Has played and failed at this level twice so I’m not quite sure what the thinking behind this would be, almost as if Warnock wants to top Gary madine as a waste of money

There's better and younger for £9m.

Scottish / on the continent. Much rather take a young hungry one there than Grabban, Honestly believe that a right back is a much higher priority than a Striker myself.
