I know, I know, the football season is over, and so begins the official silly season, where we all proclaim to have "a source" that has given us the heads up on a transfer before it even happens. Well, time for me to kick this off ....
A friend of mine does have numerous connections within the game, and does from time to time get word on something, which he passes on to me. Not everything he hears happens, but that is simply because things do change in life, someone intending to make a particular move, may change their mind right up to the point of signing, but what he tells me is true at the time, and has often played out exactly as he's said.
Anyway, what I've heard today is that Aaron McLean expects to be signing for Brighton this summer.
This would fit in with Gus believing that CMS is still a work in progress, as perhaps that work was to have McLean and CMS up front together. That bit is my guess, and not part of the information I was told, but does seem quite logical.
What would be the general feeling if that was to be the case? Pleased with the move? Is that the player that will give CMS the best chance of succeeding? Or would we still be looking for someone else as well?
