I've mentioned his before. I think that if his role is to change then I think we could well profit by using him as a 'ghost' CF in the Don't Revie mould. Someone well forward but not too far forward so as not to be shadowed by an opposing CB, and with any midfield defensive duties taken off him. In short, just commit him to working in the third quarter of the pitch as a supplier and with just the odd power surge from him. Working him this way, his skills, expertise, and influence could well destroy most opponents and I'm sure he would be a huge success at it.
