I'm against the idea but you are stuck on the idea of our front man needing pace.
He's not adaptable at all from when I've seen him for Ajax and the Netherlands. He's extremely static and can only play the 1 role.

It's not about the pace. It's about his complete lack of ability outside the box. He's one of those that will go invisible for large amounts of time and only come alive when the ball is put into the box.

He'll be a very good goal scorer for anyone who builds the team around creating chances for him. He'll be rubbish for anyone who doesnt, because thats all he contributes.
