He's a good...prospect, nothing else. It's a huge step up from the championship and just cause he scroed for fun with Hull doesn't mean he can do it when the pressure is on with Utd. He's years from providing us with steady supply of goals. Sell with a few clauses that ensures we can buy him back or % of sellon fee and i'll be more then happy. The boy needs games to see if he can hack it in the top league and lets be honest, he won't get more then 5-10 games this year. Sell and use the money to buy Berbatov, someone who can do the job NOW! Or use him to sweaten the pot with Berba. Either way, don't keep him here cause we *believe* he might be good in a few years. We've believed quite a few players would turn into stars, and fact is, only a handful truly do. Sell and move on. It's how footballs run these days...

As much as I have high hopes for him, and would like to see him get the chance in the first team, the possible arrival of Berbatov and Manucho, could see his chances very much limited. Maybe Fergie will decide nearer to the close of the window as to what he will do about Frazier.

He's already 20 and clearly not good enough for your first team. Accept. £7 million? He’s already 20 and clearly not good enough for your first team. Accept.

Manucho's work permit is sorted. He just has to get fit. No, we have four forwards if Berbatov signs. Manucho’s work permit is sorted. He just has to get fit.

In the games he has actually played I think he has done well. It would be easy to let him go and become a top scorer for another team but surely we aren't in a position to let him go just yet. Assuming we sign Berbatov, something I feel is 100% going to happen we still have only 3 forwards (excluding other youth / reserve players and the ever missing Manucho). I, for some weird reason can't help but think we are on the verge of signing TWO top forwards! I am greedy, yes, but it's something I cannot rule out! If come 2009, we are covered in that department, I am sure Hull would still bite our hands off, to sign a player that will help them stay up. I don't know about you, but I am glad there's only 48 hours of this to go!!! I don’t think it is time to rush him out of the door. In the games he has actually played I think he has done well.

If we buy Berbatov he'll be our fifth choice striker so he won't get many games. Hull are bidding good money so I say sell, but include a buy back clause in the contract a la the Rossi deal.
