lcfcsnow Posted 23 May 2014 Posted 23 May 2014 The last thing we need is a selection of English forwards. We already have 3, 2 are failed premier league strikers and Vardy who were hoping can make the step up. Look abroad for a different option, there is more talent out there for better prices.
MC Prussian Posted 23 May 2014 Posted 23 May 2014 Not going to improve us much too similar to Vardy and nugent. Would rather have bendtner offer us something different Bendtner? He always seems so lacklustre when I see him on television, he's not one of the most mobile strikers and money clearly got the worst of him with the way he presents himself in the media. Â The guy needs a good kick up his behind. Â Then again...Â

Â How does them being English make it worse? I also think 'untried' PL striker is a better way of describing Wood, saying he's failed is very unfair.

I also think 'untried' PL striker is a better way of describing Wood, saying he's failed is very unfair.I was referring to GTF and Nugent. I can't see Wood featuring much next season, plus he isn't English anyway.My point is English players are hardly the most technical, now were entering one of the biggest leagues in the world we need technical players and unfortunately that's something we've always lacked. We need more than grafters.
Brooksy Posted 23 May 2014 Posted 23 May 2014 Can see us loaning Wood out to a Championship club to be honest. I think that'll be a good move for both parties

We need more than grafters. What a load of shit you're spouting right there. You're saying don't by English players because they're not technical?
Tuna Posted 23 May 2014 Posted 23 May 2014 Point here is, is Campbell that much better than Nugent, Wood or Vardy? I'm not so sure about that. Â He'd be a good addition but surely the goalscorer should be our marquee signing, after all we missed a lot of chances last season in games and a natural goalscorer would be vital and I'm not sure Campbell would be the man to do that, but would certainly take him as one of 4 main strikers (Nugent, Vardy, Campbell, ????). Â So would deffo take him, but not as the main striker signing!
allen10 Posted 23 May 2014 Posted 23 May 2014 A bit underwhelming for me. I can't see us offloading any of our current strikers, so does he really improve what we already have? I would rank the strikers like this: Vardy Nugent Wood Campbell* GTF I think I'd rather Steve Walsh go out and find us another French wizard!
Gary Eatfood Posted 23 May 2014 Posted 23 May 2014 I think he's a decent, lively striker. Pest for defenders and he can score headers from corners! Â Get 'im in.

jimmeh Posted 23 May 2014 Posted 23 May 2014 This could just be a bid to pressure Brighton into accepting ulloa offer. Campbell is too similar to what we already have up front.
Lambert09 Posted 23 May 2014 Posted 23 May 2014 He's deffo not signing tomorrow, we all know what Frazier does during the play-offs
MPH Posted 23 May 2014 Posted 23 May 2014 This could just be a bid to pressure Brighton into accepting ulloa offer. Campbell is too similar to what we already have up front. I think he's similar to wood yet much more mobile. He's a mixture. Has pace AND strength. Can head the ball as well as find the target with his foot. I'd take him for a couple of mill...
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 23 May 2014 Posted 23 May 2014 £1 million, decent enough price to pay for him. Frazier Campbell is good enough, and proved at times last season, he can cut it at Premiership level. Wouldn't mind him at all. This
Vlad the Fox Posted 23 May 2014 Posted 23 May 2014 This could just be a bid to pressure Brighton into accepting ulloa offer. Campbell is too similar to what we already have up front. To be honest I think we need another striker in the same mould as Nugent and Vardy. Last season when one was injured we lost the pace out of our attack and had to change the style of play to accomadate.
One Legged Beaver Posted 24 May 2014 Posted 24 May 2014 Meh, not a huge fan of him to be honest. Finishing is usually very poor.
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 24 May 2014 Posted 24 May 2014 Me and a mate highlighted him as a possible when Cardiff were doomed. Thought he'd cost a sight more than £1m as well, given his decent season in the Prem for a bang average side and the fact he's 18 months in to a 3 and a half year deal. Cost Cardiff £650k though, so with them going down you'd hope they'd take £1m If he wants to leave.    sign him up.
Babylon Posted 24 May 2014 Posted 24 May 2014 At first I wasn't overly impressed with his return of 6 goals, until I compared it to the rest of the bottom half of the prem an realised that's a fairly normal return. Only three players stood out much above that Benteke, Remy and Bony. All of whom would be snapped up by a top 6 team given half a chance. The best of the rest were all 6's and 7's.
