if he were a "target man centre forward" you'd be right. he's not
i can't really be arsed to go over this with you again so consider this to be the end of it:

Of course he is. The team plays hoofball to him, he attempts to bring the ball down and attempts to score. Route one target man football. He's a big 6'3 traditional centre forward who can work on his own or with another striker.
The only time that doesn't happen is when he's brought on for a specific duty, for example in the last few minutes to retain the ball and count down the clock.
It's not like he provides a lot of assists as the assister in a strike partnership. He's had many seasons only supplying 1, 2 or none at all, so if he isn't a target man type striker then what the hell is he?
