TodwickOwl Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Both of similar quality, very good in the box and finishing One is at 33 still scoring a shedload and the other at the minute is round the corner from coming back Can Hooper come back and have a couple more years under his belt and get scoring again? Or is he done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveger Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 no, billy porker is miles ahead of him sadly.... really hope i'm wrong and Hooper comes back and scores a poo load of goals for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest timrud Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 His game was never built on electric pace. Hooper never wastes a pass, holds it up well and is a better finisher than Billy Blunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Newsome Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Hooper is the better overall player in terms of ability, sadly he's a crock. Sharp is a goalscorer in the mould of Rhodes, put him in our team and he wouldn't be able to hit a barn door. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Tibbs Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Can't see him being here next season, he won't be offered the same deal as before. I'm sure he's got plenty to offer in this division if he can stay fully fit. If. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A clear run in an ATTACK minded team playing with confidence and he would thrive. Football fans sadly only remember the last 6 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deano Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 For me it's more to do with how they play, a fit Hooper would likely be successful in that team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sternlad Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 A lot will depend on whether Hooper returns as the same player after all these injury issues. I suspect the same to apply to Kieran Lee, psychologically it’s a big ask for players to play at full tilt again after serious injury, think they will always be a bit circumspect on the pitch especially with regard to overstretching and, in Lee’s case, the amount of yardage covered. I must admit like a lot of people on here I don’t hold out much hope for Hooper or Lee making an impact this year or in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanharper Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Before Hooper got injured last Christmas : Hooper - 11 goals, 10 in the League, in a struggling side failing to create much (didn't we have about 5 shots on target in an entire month?!) Sharp in a side that had been top six all season - 8 goals As a finisher and a goal poacher Sharp has been excellent this season, but Hooper has (or had) so much more to his game. But if a fit Hooper had the service that Sharp has had this season he'd have scored just as many imo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His golf is probably better too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steveger Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 (edited) Thing is i'm comparing the past to the present as all we have to go on with Hooper is the past, who's to say he's not been ruined by those injuries?... Maybe it's a curse..... I'm hoping SW is gunna be given the chance and will take it... big time Edited February 9, 2019 by steveger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s6 owl Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Sharp is fitter and in the form of his life but if you genuinely think he is a better player than GH then you're off your head. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
