Key word being 'rumoured'.He's been injured so that's why he sat out the last few games. Most of the dressing room is rumoured to be sticking up for KLP, I wouldn't have thought Grant would drop all of them. I'd wager McCann sympathises with the situation if anything, but he can't control players signing contracts. What he can control is playing the lad, which is what he should be doing.
In fact, he should ignore the Allams completely and change his formation. What's he got to lose?
