Problem is

Etuhu would then have to run twice as fast as Hucks to get into the box AND make up 20-30 yards.

Also, it wouldn't leave any room for Jonatan Johansson or Peter "Slower than a stoned Megatherium after a heavy dose of Lithium" Thorne.

One reason I'm a fan of Leon (Bit pointless atm as he's injured!) is that other than doing the donkey work (I call him the first "box-to-box" striker), when he plays well he brings Hucks into the game, and Hucks plays well. However he is too small to play as a target man (Something that should have been painfully obvious to anyone with half a brain last season, but what the hell). Now, I wouldn't be surprised to see him go elsewhere for first-team football. Ditto Paul McSmall - can you see him being happy at being back at square one, kicking around in the reserves in a logjam of strikers?
