Agree that Cripps as a resting forward is not something I would get carried away with.
He is an inside mid and is as good at that role as there is but Ive watched him several times as a resting forward and he doesn’t fill me with confidence that is as dangerous as many fans like to think he is. Different story when he floats down deep when the ball is in the area and may get a mis match of a midfielder taking him but he has a long way to go to be as dangerous as a Fyfe Martin or Dangerfield when he is actually resting there as teams will use a real defender against him
