We need to identify one and look to bring one in the next 12 month's. Fletcher is quality but has maybe 2 years tops at this level, Vokes, well let's just leave that debate, is Cosgrove at Aberdeen maybe earmarked as that player, if we can offload some more?.

Didn’t watch the Aberdeen game the other day and say we dodged a bullet there.
And I’d change your thread title to young Fletcher upgrade before all start to say the obvious and put we have Campbell

They aren't number 9's though are they, O'Neill sees them as second strikers, he obviously has Fletcher & Vokes fitting the number 9 roles and one is getting on & the other not fit for purpose.

Fletcher is a good experienced striker and younger players may learn a lot from him. Toney the guy Brentford got from Peterborough is something like what we need although he was really niggled by Collins who got the better of him for the most part on Saturday. Did anybody wonder what he said to Collins just after he'd been booked. He crept up to Collins and whispered something and Collins just smiled.

Have you not thought that those type are the type of striker he wants at No9 and he’s got Campbell and Brown to play alongside? |

Come on as sub against Celtic hit the bar from 6 yards after ref played on before then giving a penalty. Similar fee to Brown he might be worth a gamble if its £4m or so I wouldnt bother. |

I reckon once Campbell strengthens up a bit and fully learns the ropes he will become the main striker. Hopefully that happens at Stoke.

As O'Neill pointed out a younger Fletcher would costs £10m+ e.g. Toney so the obvious answer is loan Liam Delap  |

I know it's not going to happen, but Chris Wood at Burnley would be perfect for us.

And Chris Wood would be perfect for us. But it's not happening. Hard to be fair on him considering I think he's a pretty scummy human being, Chris Wood is a typical Burnley striker in that all he can do is finish he contributes nothing in the build up whatsoever. Fletcher is so good for us because he's actually a wonderful football technically and is central to our build up play. Wood is just a big fucking lump of a player. |

Nor is Sam Cosgrove ( no.9). I’ve seen him 4 times ( the live game from the SPL) and it would be a close race between him and Wimmer; Vokes would beat him by yards! |
