Decent signing Fletcher, that's 3 forwards capable of 40-50 goals between them.

I don't understand this signing personally. we have a 1 in 3 striker with Hooper. So unless Nuhiu is off down the road, or he's fighting with Hooper for a spot. I don't quite get it. Fletcher has a 1 in 4 goal ratio.
Didn't he want around 40k a week?
Star reckons we'll also drop 11M on McCormack?

Could be going 442 with Hoops & Fletch up front and FF on the left??
Cant see us signing McCormack with Fletcher now signed.
Still in talks with Watford about Pudil last I heard.

They're rolling in silly money. Another club that's going to risk Fair Play rules to get there no doubt.
See, that's what I was hoping/thinking. Nuhiu should be offmans if we're signing anyone, especially a better version of Nuhiu. But am I right in remembering Nuhiu sign a two & half year deal in January?
So we now have Bus, Hooper, Fletcher, Forestieri, Nuhiu, Lavery. You'd expect Forest, Fletch & Hoops to be the 3.
Meanwhile, Big Dave has 2 more years on his contract and I can't see the bids flying in. Like Seme, He's a great character to have around the club as he's all heart. Just can't cut it at this level really. I wonder if we'll loan him to some Austrian club?

Cant see Lavery staying and Id be surprised if Bus was here by the start of the season.

Well, at least he's not Taylor-Fletcher. Definitely a better Fletcher.
Wingers and FB's please!
