IstillhateSteveBould Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Nixon also confirms a defender set to sign today. Pigs are meant to be signing Michael Turner from Norwich. Maybe we've swooped in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wilyfox Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Intriguing...but clearly a very different type of player to Jones. Has to affect the way we play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owlsend Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 poo poo now.. i have signed Kenwyn Jones on fifa need to sell him now .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEnchanter Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Not 100% sure what Hoopers main attributes are but I imagine he'd get behind the defence more than anyone we currently have. He won't be wanting to play with his back to goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheriwozgod Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 How many games did he start for Norwich last year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRightSide Posted August 21, 2015 Author Share Posted August 21, 2015 Not 100% sure what Hoopers main attributes are but I imagine he'd get behind the defence more than anyone we currently have. He won't be wanting to play with his back to goal. He's a good finisher. Technically sound. Mobile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won't be wanting to play with his back to goal. Just had a scan on a Norwich City forum, they say Hooper is a great finisher but doesn't put a shift in, only interested when he's got the ball.

TheEnchanter Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 (edited) How many games did he start for Norwich last year? For Norwich he played in 32 Championship games scoring 12 goals. 16 of those he started and 16 he was substituted in but he was injured at the start of the season. In total he played 1471 minutes (equivalent of 16 full matches). He has scored 31 in his last 65 games in the Championship and scored 82 in 138 during his 4 years with Celtic.

Bluesteel Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I'd rather spend money on a permanent signing but hooper is a very assured finisher. Not the battering ram type i expected though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodys Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Looking at his account he said this prior to the OP one Alan Nixon â€@reluctantnicko 47 mins47 minutes ago Gary Hooper on the move. Major shock. Major loan fee and extras. What a statement signing ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurujuan Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Would like the defender to be Lescott, but would probably require a similar loan fee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest totemowl Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Fits better with our new style than any of the other striker options. Obviously a target at the beginning of the window and not surprised we are only closing in on him near the end of the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IstillhateSteveBould Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Goal every 122 minutes last season for Hooper. Awesome strike rate. Just scrap this 433 lark and get him and Joao upfront in a 442. They'd do some reyt damage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
