Apparantly we are after 3 Brighton players with Whickham going to Brighton as a straight swap....
We know 2 of the Brighton players, who could the other be ?
Ulloa maybe ?

He's the other one we're linked with. Again it would give us too many strikers for our system. Poyet has said he'll stick with Jozy so it could mean Fletch to be sold this window.
 
The striking role, more so than any other position on the pitch, is all about confidence..I don't for one minute think Altidore is as bad a player as he has consistently shown for us, but his confidence is shot to pieces and he looks like a rabbit caught in the headlights every time he gets the ball in an advanced position. Fletcher has proved in the past that he is well capable of scoring goals, so in his case I believe that it is a fitness problem following his injury problems rather than a confidence issue that is holding him back. Wickham is in my opinion a young lad who I has a lot to offer if given a fair crack of the whip, and if he does come back to play for us, I would like nothing better than to see him bloom..

Good summary and perspective, RAW. I suspect Fletchers confidence is waning a bit too, though......sadly for us.
 
I would Jozy on loan to the MLS. Play in a system/way he knows, get his confidence back for world cup then take a view in the summer.
