    Well that WOULD allow Jarv to move across then. Be interested to see how he and Pinto work together.

    So what would you do?
    Continue to stumble towards oblivion with what we already have or try to do something constructive about it? If it's the latter, big bucks is the word these days - everyone else spends them - we can only afford it now and again, so let's hope AN has got this one right <ok>

    Who's worth closer to £8mil;
    Lewis Grabban, or Steven Naismith?

    Well if we sign Naismith and he plays a role in us staying in the PL he is, because lets face it Grabban was never going to make a difference.

    You could possibly include Benik Afobe in that, even though he was allegedly a bit more - but what I saw on Saturday (albeit against our stuttering back line) suggests he may well prove to be the best of those three signings. I hope I'm wrong!

    Naismith is worth closer to £8m to us and Grabban closer to £8m to Bournemouth - let's face it, he was never gonna be worth that much to us except in our bank balance....

    Are we saying the two fees cancel each other out? If so, quite happy with that.

    Yep - that's about the crux of it NCG !

    The cash for Grabban funds the purchase of Naismith - job done !!

    Swapped a proven premier league ACM for a prima donna Championship "striker" who thinks he is better than he is!

    My main concern with Naismith is that he is injured.

    I'm not sure how "injured" he is or if that is just an excuse to keep him out of the first team. We need an impact now, not in a months time.

    We would have wasted an awful lot of time if he fails it.

    I'm sure there will be some well considered and diplomatic reactions on here, Canary Call, and Twitter should he fail it!

    Can we at least give Naismith a chance before putting him down? I do think he will improve our team (hopefully) but like buying any player, they can either be a hit or a miss, just have to hope for the best.

    I'm his biggest fan on here I think.

    Not putting him down at all.
