£15m for a 30 year old. LOL.

Crazy valuation if true for a player with hardly and Premiership experience and older than CMS when we signed him. I thought he looked decidedly average when we played them too.

Totally agree. Really can't see us spunking that sort of money on a lower league journeyman. Even if we go up, I bet we won't spend more than about £10m on a player - that's not the way we do things.
And, all joking aside, I bet we're still keeping an eye on Calleri

I like Ross mc Cormack but if Brighton go up to the Premiership, I think any striker signed will have the following Characteristics
1. Have more of a physical presence than Mc Cormack
2. Have Premiership experience or have played in one of Europe's top leagues
3. Be in the age group 24 to 28
I also think Hemed's game is very much suited to the Premiership and I think this year has been a learning curve for him. I think he could be a good enough squad player in the Premiership

Andy Carroll cost West Ham £15m, reputedly.
I am not saying I would want Carroll, or that WHU would let him go, and I know it was 3 years ago nearly, but £15m for a proven Premier League striker and international.......... McCormack for half that, maybe.
And I'm sure we could do/find better. Our scouting/recruitment network has done fairly well of late, to say the least.

Joint top scorers in the league worried about a lack of firepower? Hmmm.
I think Chris would jump at the chance of Andy Carroll - After all, he broke into Chris' Newcastle team at about 18 but I have a feeling his injury record might put him off

I think Carroll is a bit of a thug, but he is an effective thug, and not so much of a thug - or in the same way - as Joey Barton.
