The 72.co.uk (a credible source) have an article today suggesting that Fletcher is likely to leave Watford for a Lg1 club. Obviously we are close geographically and need to reinforce up front. Not impossible
I can see that, and not sure he'd get in ahead of Vokes for me either. Depends how MB sets up, but if we go with a one striker system I'm happy with Vokes, De Barr, Hanlan and potentially Mellor being the options, with a few prospective development players that are a bit more of a similar profile to Vokes to develop and provide game time too. Fletcher isn't a bad player, but don't think he's the one we need, not sure he would get the game time he would want at the moment and as mentioned, not overly prolific in front of goal.
Another wonderkid that never made the heights he was once expected to make. Don't think for a minute he will come to us. But Sam Vokes so you never know.

Not very prolific is he? Perhaps MB and Vokes can help him up to the heights.
Wages almost certainly an issue? He’s got 3 years left on his deal according to my Watford-supporting colleague.
I’d guess Reading will want him.

“But Sam Vokes so you never know??”
Sam Vokes, but not very often?
We’ve signed Sam Vokes three years in a row!
Is this going to be ‘make or break’ season for Big Sam ?
Both - making history and breaking scoring records.
