I disagree that he's not played 2 up front, he's done that frequently this season, Young has played up front numerous times.

Cueller, Collins, Dunne and L Young was the tightest defence in the league last season when they played together.
He needs at least 2 seasons to sort us out in my opinion
I do think he has less margin for error than most of the managers we've recently appointed.MON was a popular choice at the time, and that gave him breathing space when we had a horror run between Nov 2006-March 07...
No Young has played right up top at times no question, he was bought as a striker as well.

Yes, there have been times when he's found himself in the centre foward position, such as when he's the only man left upfield when we're defending set pieces and therefore spearheading any counter attacks, but when we have the ball he's involved deeper and wide.
