Monty13 2,229 Posted May 21, 2013 I remember him being quite highly regarded and he has by all accounts refused a new contract rather than been released. If you believe the rumours a number of PL clubs are after him and one may well be us (as suggested in places), whether its a good signing or not I don''t personally know enough about him other than what I have read and the very occasional game I have seen him play.I trust Hughton to bring in good players though, so if he wants him, there will be a reason why he thinks he can step up.

AJ 1,218 Posted May 23, 2013 A lot of papers just re-hash transfer rumours.Only 25 and played his entire career at Burnley so far. Not really sure what my thoughts are on this one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 3,638 Posted May 23, 2013 As I said on the Harry Arter thread, not all signings we make will be ''big'' scale, there are still decent buys out there (and ''frees'') who will add to our squad depth. CH hasn''t done too badly on transfers so far so if he thinks a guy is worth a punt we should go with it; McCann is a decent player, used to be club captain and is 25 so a good age.
