I think he should go

If you're going to play solo upfront, you have to have one of the following qualities:

1. Natural goal scorer (20 a season)
2. Excellent hold up play / link up man that creates a lot of opportunities for other players.

I don't think he has either, and he's not pacey enough to play the wide position.

Frankly, I'm not sure Idah has the qualities noted above either.
