    Would you do it?

    We want Olsson and they want Campbell for a couple of million says todays paper, would you take it?

    I would

    I know we are short of options upfront but would rather play Ji or Wickham and I am 100% sure we will bring in 3 new strikers.

    Yeah we'd get the better deal. But we'd need three new strikers if we did that. I'd prefer to give Ji and Whickham game time also, about as effective but younger and a great deal more potential.

    Campbell has not exactly been banging them in to date has he, may do him well to step down a level perhaps - and if it would get goodwill to get Nzonzi deal sorted..........................

    Yes, swap deal plus money. Afterall they would get a forward (with goal's in mind?) we get a defender/midfielder.

    I know Campbell has struggled since his injury,but he seems to love the fans/club, so i think he should be given his last year of his contract to see if he can come good. He knows from his time with Bent how he would be hero worshipped when he started scoring, and in my opinion he gives the impression he wants to repay the club for standing by him.
    Personally i prefer him to some of the others that have been mentioned, and i think his enthusiasm would rub off on any new signings

    I like Campbell, I have seen enough in him to see there's a top class striker in there somewhere.
    Too many times the way we have set up is for him to chase the ball and hope for the best.
    With a good striker alongside him I think he would have no problem getting 15 plus a season.

    The best strikers are only as good as their supply line.
