He improved a lot last season on speed and strength and actual footballing ability. He did score 20+ goals two seasons in a row (albeit a lot of penalties).
Unless he went for loads of money (once fit) and we replaced him with a real goal scorer for some of the fee, I would be okay with him playing in our new formation.
