Norwich preparing £3m swoop for Brighton striker Mackail-Smith

By JOE BERNSTEIN

PUBLISHED: 17:00 EST, 29 December 2012 |

Norwich manager Chris Hughton will go back for £3m Brighton striker Craig Mackail-Smith after missing out on him in the summer.

Hughton is keen to boost his side’s goal tally with Grant Holt having scored only four times this season.

Mackail-Smith, 28, has reached double figures in the Championship.

Hmm..they''re definitely after strikers as Poyet admitted himself after the game against Watford. Would make sense to sell CMS and then use the money for those new strikers. Wouldn''t pay anything over £3m for him..he''d do the Holt role well I''d imagine and with more pace and energy, but obviously not the aerial threat.

Not the best striker, but better than we have got perhaps in Kane, Morison and Jackson. More proven at least, £3M is probably a bit much at his age though, but hey, if it keeps us winning games I''ll trust Hughton!

How is CMS more proven than Simeon? And even morisons proven in the prem proven to be crap but still proven!

we need to be going after better quality than championship players again IMHO

If we''ve got three million to spunk, I''d rather go for Austin or Billy Sharpe; Holt and Morison (and even Kane) all give us a presence but we really need a finisher

Daily Mail reckons we''ll need to bid £3 Million for CMS but on a separate page are claiming Leeds will "need to bid £1.5 Million" to sign him.

 

Seems to show what they know quite clearly (ie) Mr Jack Shit esquire.

I watched the Brighton Watford game yesterday and have to say CMS didn''t impress me at all. After a good start to the season his goals have dried up and on top of that he turns 29 early next year. Might have been worth a punt if he was 5 years younger.

I''d rather have Danny Graham.

not sure that CMS is the answer but one these strikers has to be good enough surely?

the ones we have are hardly setting the world alight this season are they??

I''d so much rather we play Morison than CMS, Morison has actually proven himself in the PL.... Something many of our fans forget.

CMS would fit the way we play much better than Morison. His work rate and touch are far better than Morison. For me Morison only really shines in 4-4-2 and looks lost upfront on his own. We looked much better yesterday when Kane came on.
