That NPC player with an average goalscoring record has potential at the age of 22 - something you can't particularly say for Zamora or Cisse - both of whom would be on big wages.
Hooper is pretty similar to Sharp, too similar, if they were both to be at Saints. This is why Rodriguez is a better option - he offers us something else.
So the BBC and Mirror and others are saying that we've already had a bid of up to 7mn accepted, yet Sky are saying we're only in talksbwith Burnley about a 7mn bid? Seems Sky may be slightly off-key...
It's not really obscene when you consider we're getting a young prospect who has the potential to play for England and as a club are now rolling in the 'megabucks' of the Premier League.
Not really a little mistake is it? Atkins is a ****ing weight loss diet. People should know how to spell the name of the most successful manager we've had in recent years ffs. And less of the sarcasm, it's the lowest form of wit, as they say.
Don't see what all the hype is about to be honest. And your going to score goals if you're part of a three-pronged attack in a very attacking fluid side - well, if you're worth your salt that is.
Really intelligent little striker. Scored some sublime goals for us - both in the Championship and L1. Was a great signing on a free and he played a crucial role in our promotion run in in L1. Also was integral to the way we started in the Championship.
My favourite goal of his... Hmmm... Probably one of the most important was the one at Brighton, but the one this year at Barnsley was handy too!
Loved watching him play for us - Cheers DC!
