Joint top scorer in the league now, would defintely sign in the summer no matter what league we are in. Don't think we'd be in the play offs if he was signed in the summer.

Nice to see him going mad when he scored.  Could so easily had a hatrick.  Nice flick for the header that hit the bar in the first half, shame he couldn't guide it down.  Really good player.  Him and Kodjia in the same side would be a real handful.

Played well, good touch and not too outmuscled by bigger players. First choice every game for me. Shame he missed with the first-half clear header.

Looks like he's potentially off to Forest: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/44727936

Quote
Championship side Nottingham Forest have had a £6m bid accepted for AFC Bournemouth striker Lewis Grabban.

The 30-year-old scored 20 goals during loan spells with Sunderland and Aston Villa in the second tier last season.

Grabban has netted 36 times in 115 games in two spells with the Cherries, and has also attracted interest from Birmingham, Leeds and Middlesbrough.

But since rejoining Bournemouth from Norwich City in January 2016, Grabban has played for them just 22 times.

I quite liked him - he reminded me of Collymore - but like Stan he flattered to deceive - would have been a reasonable signing but not at £6m

I thought it was a lot of money for him. His spells with us and Sunderland really did work out well for Bournemouth.
