    No contest. Very similar players except that Hooper is superior in every department.

    Hooper's touch and all round play was on a completely different level to McDonald. McDonald was a good goal poacher, nothing more.

    McDonald was a decent player. No more, no less. Gary Hooper was a very good all round player in my opinion, and far superior. McDonald just didn't have anywhere near the same ability I don't think.

    In terms of goals against the SPL sides, in the games against them and in European ties they are fairly similar.

    Both good goalscorers, but Hoopers' all round game was far superior.
