Steven Fletcher was today challenged to fill his boots after being told he can score 20 goals for Wolves this season.
Last season's 12-goal leading marksman got off the mark with Wolves' first of the season in the opening 2-1 win over Blackburn.
Fletcher's 10 League strikes in 2010-11 came from just 15 starts and captain Roger Johnson believes the club record £7m signing can at least double that tally – making a start on Sunday at home to Fulham– if he stays fully fit this term.
"He got 12 goals last season and 10 from 15 Premier League starts which is a great ratio," said Johnson.
"I don't see why, if he plays all 38 games, he can't get, say 23 goals."
