We need to let frazier go - look at his record compared to le fondres

Adam Le fondre has scored 149 goals in his career

Frazier Campbell has scored 55 golas in his career ( 20 in Belgium )

We need goal scorer - Frazier Campbell is not a provern striker look at his stats

Looking at those stats ALF is quite impressive for a small fee we signed him for. Both are top strikers in the Championship.

i just got a feeling Campbell could score shed loads next season if he stayed. so campbell for me :ayatollah:

I actually think I'd prefer Le Fondre. He's a more natural finisher than Campbell. Campbell works hard but wastes too many chances. Saying that, I think Campbell could have had a decent season in the Championship. Neither are Premier League and are about the same level if you ask me.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I read that Le Fondre has always been in double figures with his goal tally every season throughout his career? A remarkable rise if you will, a natural born finisher and someone who knows where the net is. Campbell on the other hand has had one decent season in Belgium and a great season with Hull.
