Look at how talented he is, rather than statistics.
They only paid £3.5 million for Shearer though (ok it was a British transfer record but anyway). Shearer also scored more than 9 goals in his previous season and never got Southampton relegated.

I want Smith anyway.

Point is, Smith has talent. He's big, strong, fast, good in the air, got great technique, very hardworking and is a good finisher.

Bear in mind Leeds bosses have shifted him around from midfield to a supporting role, and that Leeds are shite.

In a good side, he'll get 20+ goals a season. £5.5 million, if it's true, would be a huge bargain, and would make up the inflated price Saha cost.
