Fletcher away?

So the latest with the papers is that Swansea are interested in our Scottish International Steven Fletcher.

It’s not the first rumour of the striker possibly being shipped out, at the start of the transfer window Scottish giants Celtic where discussing a move, but if the gossip is true his wages where too high. 

Sunderland need to get rid of some dead wood players that is a given, although apparently in a bid to free up cash for any future signings.  Not sure exactly how true that is, but getting rid of certain underperforming players from last season would not go a miss.

Sunder land should look to sign another striker especially if Fletcher does leave, he certainly didn’t worry too many defences last season.  Saying that neither did Wickham, Graham or Defoe, Sunderland have struggled for goals and in particular someone to score them.  Although to be fair to Wickham, he spent most of his time on the wing, in my opinion and his he isn’t a winger.

Fletcher wouldn’t be a big miss at Sunderland scoring just 5 goals in 33 appearances, along with the Lamborghini photo which just angered most fans, although he will need to be replaced.
