While I agree you do need a target man, you don't in every game and only parts of other games. Surely the midfield can pass the ball around while manouvering themselves into attacking positions while playing with a pacey forward. Also a pacey forward can run the channels when under pressure, a big man needs it played perfect to him to have any chance of holding it and releasing an on rushing player.
Joel Campbell it is for me. He would add something different to our team too.
A good front man needs to be able to hold the ball up but that doesn't mean that he has to be huge and slow. Jordan Rhodes holds the ball up well but also has some pace & scores bag loads of goals.
We are generally quite a small team though and Nuhiu or Joao do play an important role defending set pieces so a replacement would need to be able to fulfil that role.
CC view on Hutchinson's combative style.

The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
