Well if he's better than Jackson, Martin and Morison then we're improving the team

and that's all you can ask for at the moment.

Every play we've bought so far is a drastic improvement on what we had last season and imo that includes Hooper.

  - Proven record?? (n/m) (NCFC) - RochdaleCanary, Jul 25, 14:31:46
    - He's scored 19 goals or more in each of the last 5 seasons!! (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Jul 25, 14:36:40
      - Some of his first touches on this video are worth ?5m alone! (NCFC) - mrleelee, Jul 25, 14:52:12
        
        He kills the ball dead on a couple of those. Very nice. Where's his bloopers reel? (n/m) (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Jul 25, 15:38:08
      - CL goals too remember... (n/m) (NCFC) - admckechnie, Jul 25, 14:41:41
        
        Yep he's been prolific (NCFC) - RochdaleCanary, Jul 25, 14:46:29
        
        Oh, well I took it to mean proven record as a goalscorer. (n/m) (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Jul 25, 14:54:50
        
        Me too.... Proven PREM??? Very few can afford those players! RVP, ROONEY etc?? (n/m) (NCFC) - admckechnie, Jul 25, 15:00:48
        
        also no guarantee a 'proven' prem goalscorer will remain one (NCFC) - mr carra, Jul 25, 15:24:07
        
        Bingo. RVP and Hoops for ?12 million?? Brilliant potentially (n/m) (NCFC) - admckechnie, Jul 25, 15:26:02
- We thought he was worth around ?7m in January (NCFC) - mrleelee, Jul 25, 14:15:04
  - I guess where we are now means that 5m is thought of as pretty risk free (n/m) (NCFC) - Hulk Rules, Jul 25, 14:16:07
    - Yep, also he is very likely to still have a value of ?2/?3 million in a couple of years (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Jul 25, 14:19:54
      - Hughton loves one up front, but I honestly don't think Hooper is being bought to play (NCFC) - mrleelee, Jul 25, 14:22:17
        
        Yeah I'd agree. Bear in mind Hughton said he doesn't just see RvWW as out-and-out striker (n/m) (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Jul 25, 14:24:16
        
        Very good point, very excited about this season! (n/m) (NCFC) - mrleelee, Jul 25, 14:26:06
    - Well if he's better than Jackson, Martin and Morison then we're improving the team (NCFC) - mrleelee, Jul 25, 14:17:44
      - 5-10 more (NCFC) - Pragmatist, Jul 25, 14:24:28
      - Yep. We've obviously had him in mind to replace Holt for a while! (n/m) (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Jul 25, 14:21:28
