Sven Goran Eriksson is set to be reunited with Sol Campbell in a sensational swoop for Notts County.

The 61-year-old Swede has targeted free agent Campbell to be at the forefront of the Magpies' promotion push.

And the former England boss is convinced he's worked his legendary charm on Campbell to persuade the 34-year-old to drop down to League Two.

I'll never argue he's not a good player, nor will I say we don't need him. I do however feel his wages could go towards younger players who could possibly go on to be of more use. He'll only have a few seasons in him, if we go up it'll draw his time closer because the higher leagues need defenders who are wise and fast.

Sol's a good guy but he's awfully slow.

I'm torn between "yay" though. Like I say it'll be a good signing if we use him and he can keep up with his performances but we need young blood too..

This report is different depending on where you read it. I have been keeping up to date with this story, and there seems to be very different reports everywhere.

Should he come to Notts I wouldn't mind, another 'big' name would be good for the PR of the team

Personally I dont like him at all, and never have!!! If he came to Notts for me it would not be a positive thing. As it is im sick of TV and Papers calling Notts, 'Svens Notts.' Nevermind it being 'Sols Notts' aswell

Sol and co had a business meeting where i worked, then a meal. It's looking quite possible that he will sign for us, though I'm not 100% but why stay after the business meeting and waste time? The meal must mean good things for county and the fact he's booked a room for 5 days with extension possibilities.

Doesn't change my thoughts on his wages but my opinions changing.
