Fletcher: All we need is Lovell

Bournemouth assistant Steve Fletcher believes the return of Steve Lovell will be a massive boost in the club's push for promotion to the Championship. The 30-year-old striker, who recently returned from 12-months out with an ankle problem, was included in the Cherries' matchday squad for the first time against Charlton at the weekend and Fletcher insists he will be a major asset. "It would be great if we could get him fully fit for the last seven or eight games," Fletcher told the Bournemouth Echo. "He is the type of player who will be a dream to have back in the team because he is such a quality player. He has played at a high standard for most of his career and he will be a great asset to the squad. "Whether he is starting or coming off the bench, with his pace and the way he wants to get in behind and play on the shoulders of defenders, he will be a massive asset. "For people like myself and Michael Symes, people who win balls in the air and flick things on, he will be great to play with because that is what he looks for - the little bits around the big striker."
