Certainly not written him off but had the laugh at the thought of him playing as a false nine. Leaving aside the goals Merino had got he also gives us a physical presence
I know Wigwam playing so well this season changed things, but I do think MA was thinking of playing Dec at DM and MnM at inside left. That was the idea when he got Kai to play there. So we still have a big lump, duel winning aerial outlet.
