Football is - and always will be - a simple game Tony. I've never been able to get my head around this 'false nine' stuff. In my day if I had a fast strike partner I would simply play five or ten yards closer to the half way line and drag the centre half or halves out with me, leaving a lovely gap for my teammate to exploit. And if they didn't follow me out, I was the one with plenty of space to do what I wanted with the ball then. Its hardly a rocket science playing up front.
