Rumours link Addicks with Hornets striker

Saturday's match shows that the biggest deficiency in our squad is strikers who can find the back of the net on a regular basis if Darren Bent is injured or otherwise available.

Hence there may be something in reports that Watford's Ashley Young is being tracked by the Addicks, although he is an attacking midfielder rather than a striker (remember Jason Euell who was given a role in the hole?) He has scored six goals for the Hornets this season and might have a million pound price tag.
