Not sure Todd is suited to playing as wide forward in a 4-3-3
You look at teams who play that and the wide forwards tend to have pace. Even less likely for him to be successful in that formation if he’s playing on the right, because if he cuts in (through lack of pace) he’s on his wrong foot.
Also, if we’re going to play pacey wide forwards with no number 10, then most chances will be crosses? Pukki doesn’t generally score from crosses, but Sargent or Idah might.
