Well that's sort of the point I was making, although

I am not turning on Huckerby - just being a bit realistic and recognising that his most dangerous asset - pace - is inevitably gradually deserting him, and most 30+ attackers compensate by adding other parts to their game. For example, defending. Huckerby has been quite clear that pace is his game and, once it goes, he will retire rather than fit into a different role in the way strikers such as Dublin and Sheringham have survived into their 90s.
