I wonder if he could swap teams at half-time? Or maybe get some of his old team-mates in, I'd love to see him and Klinsmann up-front again! In another twenty years we probably won't even know what an 'English centre forward' is, never mind a typical one! No, I think a 'typical English forward' will always be remembered as it is now, we will just begin to see less and less of them. There is only a handful left in the Premiership and it probably won't be long before they die out, because pace is such an important factor in the modern game. Teddy never needed it though.. so I just hope we continue to make talents like him, rather than banking on bringing in some geezer from Spain just because he can run fast.
