Next season's formation/how to get the best from Hucks

I really really think we should play the Christmas tree: 4-3-2-1. The 1 is Ashton, the 2 are Leon on the right and Hucks on the left. Of the 3, the middle one is Safri and I don't know who the other two are. Jonson is pretty useless for that formation, Francis too on current form (and he won't be here), Holt is gone.

The advantage of this is that when we're attacking you've got a 3 man attack, but when they've got the ball Leon and Hucks are supposed to drop back and defend. Now, we all know Hucks won't, but Leon definitely will - great engine, committed, aggressive, hunts the ball. So the 3 can all shuffle across when the attack comes down the left knowing that Leon will fill the hole on the right.
