My thinking is that Pritchard(or similar) would be used as a second striker meaning either Murray or Hemed lead the line on their own. I think our 4-4-1-1 this season will be 5 midfielders and 1 striker.
I'm not convinced we'll sign a striker. I think Hughton will go with the 3 he's got and will find another player, like Pritchard, to operate behind the striker.
