parisvilla Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Think Fletcher is decent but would rather have Carroll for the same money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Think Fletcher is decent but would rather have Carroll for the same money. Fletcher has been better in Premier League out of the 2. its just Carroll gets mediahype as being better player as he plays for liverpool. thinking about it i think Bent and Fletcher are too similar to play together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulTheVillan Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Fletcher has got something. Scores goals in a poor side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briny_ear Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 as their best striker with 2 years to run on his contract, his "worth" is whatever Wolves want for him.Tsk. His "worth" is the price the can raise for him, not the price they ask. #MarketrulesOK. The £10m would normally be a first stab in a negotiation and it may well go down (unless MON is involved in the deal, in which case, on past experience, it may go above Wolves's first asking price! :confused:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if a team plays to Carroll's strengths then he is a potentially huge asset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthEastVillan Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 I personally thing the link to Fletcher is just the height of lazy journalism. Fletcher and Lambert are Scottish + Villa looking at a new striker + Wolves is geographically close so no need to move = Villa after Wolves striker Fletcher Personally think there's nothing in it. Not that i'd be against it for around £8m, not the £15m that Wolves want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVFCforever1991 Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Fletcher has got something. Scores goals in a poor side. So did Yakubu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see how the price would go down, not unless the player agitated for the move, there was only one club interested or he was nearer the end of his contract.

moose Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Mate at work just told me that Fletcher moved out of his rented house two months ago and said he was off to Sunderland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CI Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 My understanding is MON has tabled a £12m bid and wolves want £15m which is a ludicrous price for SF Arshavin and Defoe both on QPR radar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quizme Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Fletcher is a good player, maybe not worth 10-12 million pounds, but if Lambert is fine with it I dont mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulver Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 On the remote chance players look at fan forums before signing for clubs. Can I just say it's much nicer up North Steven Sunderland is a beautiful city, full of loose women and free ale Have fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginko Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 To be fair, he may prefer it up north since it's closer to home for him. Then again, he wouldn't have to move house if he came to us from Wolves. Meh, I think he's a decent player. Ten million is a little steep but Wolves obviously price him higher than what he's worth because they don't want him to go, common sense really.
