I've been told this is done. Not sure how I feel about it. Great record for England and I've always thought he looked good when fit. If he is on a performance based contract with a low basic salary then great, Im all for it. The bloke has averaged 15 games a season since his debut 11 years ago.... to put that into perspective, its a bit more than Wilshere, but not by much.
He isn't fit yet by the way, 'coming back to full fitness' apparently. So selling the current 3 strikers would be a big risk.
I do admit before his injuries I had a soft spot for Danny Welbeck as a footballer. I used to tell my brother I thought he was going to be 'brilliant'. So blame me for putting the kiss of death on him lol.
But with Deeney as captain and ever-present under Gracia, Deulofeu our top-scorer and best player, and now Welbeck - it’s what will likely happen I think.
Mental either way you look at this. Having Welbeck here would boost brand Watford no end. T-shirt sales alone are expected to raise somewhere in the region of £397.50 This will either be a Marlon or a Duke signing.
I didn't think of that. A plus for him. Which will be longer? The NHS waiting time at A&E or Welbeck scoring?
So have we officially gone from worst ******* pre season and trasnfer period ever, we hate the pozzos, we are getting relegated to competing for the top 6?
Apparently Welback is only up for this move because he's heard there's an NHS medical facility in close proximity.
Transfer news: We could be about to sign Robbie Savage. Now there is a guy who stole a career as a footballer. All other ex-players apply to Watford FC. Bring your boots and a medical fit to work certificate (not compulsory)

A world class deal. If he is fit and plays he is a quality player and better than we have. If he doesn’t play we have lost £25k a week (chicken feed). Quite a bit of the time he wasnt playing at Arsenal, was that he was not first choice
