To be fair to cookie he is playing with toni and massey who are both strikers grigg on the bench keeping them on their toes not a lone striker.
Surely a professional footballer should be able to adapt to either way of playing.Not really. Players have their positions because that’s where they’re best at playing. If you play them in another position they won’t play as well regardless of the coaching & if you go off what Barrow said & presumably why Cook very swiftly decided to get rid, he isn;t the best at taking advice on board
Stuart Barlow was a great centre forward for us but he fed off the work of Liddell & Haworth (I use the term “work” very loosely about Haworth). Play him as a lone striker & he’d have been awful.

Yes there are supporting players who can play up front, but in this system they’re asked to do other roles & push forward in support
I’d describe a striker as the player/s who play in that last line of the formation. Cook favours what people call a 4-2-3-1 so to me it’s a lone striker system. If it was 4-4-2 there’d be 2 strikers. 5-3-2 = 2 strikers. 4-3-3 = 3 strikers
