That site is full off shit

No, but at this current moment in time we paid over the odds. I can't ever see us selling him for more than the £3.25 million, and for a league 1 player at his age i think we paid too much money.

We didnt pay £3.25m for him though by quite a long way. Also Reading offered more for him in January than we paid, so slightly undermines your argument.

 

[Albion Dan]

I would be mortified if we paid 2 mill for Mclean though. Way over the odds.

£2.5M + £750K add ons + signing on fee

Pretty much £3.25M assuming add ons (promotion) are spread over his contract.

 

[Potters mate]

its actually his cousin, Bitty Mclean, who has been booked to play next years gig at the Amex!

That assumes we will get promoted with him at the club. If we do then the extra is small beer, if not then a big saving.

Wouldn't be surprised if we signed him this summer, but not for any more than £1 million

I hope your son has a better level of education than you.

Is that actually necessary? This is a football fans' forum, not an English exam.

CMS was not overpriced he has such an amazing work rate and make all the right runs but gus needs to brim in the support for him, he can't do it all on his own.

I agree that his workrate does go a long way to justifying his work rate but I can't disagree more about his runs. He almost never makes the right runs! Its why every match I get frustrated that if a winger fires the ball low across the six yard box he's nowhere to be seen. Barnes makes better runs whixh is why a) Vicente looks for Barnes and b) Barnws scored more from left wing.

I do, however, think CMS is a great player.

On the McLean front, for £500k max, maybe... For £2m, absolutely never in million years!

Indeed. But the add-ons haven't been triggered so at the moment we've paid 2.5m. Since when did signing on fee get included as well?!

 

[Rugrat]

£2M? For what? If that's the extent of our ambitions we're in for a long and miserable season I reckon

 

[kevtherev]

I do hope not. It would mean that CMS is going nowhere but 2million for a 5ft 8in short arse who has proved he is not really up to this level, is very worrying if true.

 

[kevtherev]

Erm is hardly a goal scorer poyet wouldnt d
Spunk 2mill on him

Agree with the first comment, not so sure on the second.

looked a very good player at the amex . best player on the pitch i thought ?

 

[Codner pharmaceuticals]

I can't help thinking that a guy running around on the back of a pretend ostrich is not going to be the answer to our striker problems.

 

[Eddiespearritt]

Does it mean Greg Bobkin isn't coming now ?

 

[kevtherev]

He did put himself about a bit, I agree. I'm not saying he would not be a good addition as I personally think we need two strikers anyway. The thing I would find very worrying is the price tag, like others have said, maybe £1m max but no way £2m.

 

[BUTTERBALL]

Not sure he is what we are looking for. I wouldn't pay any more than £400k for him absolute tops.

 

[daveinprague]

Thought this was funny on the Hull forum...

're: Brighton - McLeanI reckon Brighton might lose Poyet to the PL before the start of next season.

It just goes to show that, our managerial position is not as bad as it could be'


er, yes it is mate.
