Something sounds a little dubious to me.
On the one hand Fitton is holding on to players, yet Macca will go if Norwich ''meets his valuation''. Sounds as if Macca won't have his contract renewed and that a deal is being haggled over in the meantime.

Every player has a price - if somebody offered £1m for Macca we'd bite their hands off (and wonder what planet they were on)

He's the best winger we have, if we were to sell him I'd be disappointed. A fee of £500-750k is what we should be asking for.

Isn't this a bit of an old story now the transfer window has passed though?

He can still go on loan and make it permanent in January.

Am i alone in thinking we saw the best of him in his first couple of months here.  This is when he was beating defenders and putting in top qaulity crosses.

The crosses aren't there anymore, he seldom beats the two defenders he attracts.  Wasting time with pretty stepovers that fool nobody.

It's not that I dislike macca, it's I think he can do better.  I've watched the other guy whoes name escapes me at this moment in time and I think he'll catch Macca up sooner rather than later.

If the price is right move Macca on.

I personally think that we should not sell Macca unless its about 1mill.
He is the type of player that gets us fans off our seats. Against southend when he came off we went all quite and there was no buzz when we got the ball out wide. He may waste some time with the pretty stepovers, but he is so unpredictable it is hard for defenders to know what he is going to do with the ball. There cant be many wingers in Lge 1 who are as good as Macca. So we should not sell, or if we do sell we should ask for Wes Hoolahan as exchange

luxury player.at times a potent weapon,at others a complete waste of a player on the park.
he has great ability,but decent managers do their work on him and stifle his play.he's not very versatile is he?
£250,000 would be a fair price and one i'd take for him.

His form did drop off soon after joining but Wilson has got him playing quite well. I maintain he is our best winger. At our level I think we have to accept that you're either going to get an attacking player who can play past the opposition or a player who does better in a narrower system. Come to think of it there arent many complete wingers about at even the highest level. I dont think Macca is a luxury player because we'd have created very little last season without him. The defence are coping fine too.

Unless we could replace him with someone like Robson-Kanu, I wouldn't get rid of him.

We should try and get HRK back.

In the current market I cant see Macca being worth much more than £100k, to say hes worth a million is utter fucking bollocks, one trick pony who has one good game in every 3 or 4.

Defenders know how to play him now, sell him while hes still an assett and before his contract runs out and he leaves on a free.

A non goal scoring winger who some people think could be worth between 750K - 1 Mill ?

Shame some of you never saw David Moss or Ian Miller,who were class wingers and went
onto have very good careers at higher levels.

Norwich are our league rivals and Macca is probably the best winger. A high valuation may not be realistic but for these reasons that's why his valuation is pushed up.

Considering Norwich paid £250k for OTJ, I think Macca's got to be worth at least that.

Maybe 200-300k, but if anyone thinks an average 26 Year old league 1 winger is worth a million, they're mental.
