Just like nam, you weren't there dude, you werent there!
I can't be arsed but I would bet a hefty chunk that were I to dig through the archives and find the match thread, you will have been posting from across the pond.
Put quite simply, Humphrey was atrocious in that position. Add into the fact that in all the games I have watched him in (which is far more that you will have seen ) the one thing he is even worse at than crossing, is getting his foot through the ball. Now being able to hit a shot is a key skill for an attacker so I would quite happily say no. Keep him on the wing to try and stretch the game.
I should point out though that I do think there would be merit on standing him on the half way line when we are defending corners, any big punt up the park with him running onto it would have an opposition defence in disarray. Full time upfront - no thanks.
