'Joao Moutinho posible sustituto de Luka Modric en el Tottenham
El portugués del Oporto Joao Moutinho, de 25 años, se perfila como el centrocampista que reemplazará al croata Luka Modric en el Tottenham. Así, según publican diversos medios de Portugal y se hace eco el portal Fichajes.com, Joao Moutinho habría llegado a un principio de acuerdo con el club de la Premier League, a fin de que la oficialización de su fichaje coincida en el tiempo con la salida de Luka Modric de la entidad presidida por Daniel Levy, lo que se espera que sea inminente.

although I get your point, it does seem the best teams in the world are playing only 1 out and out striker these days.

heck some aren't even playing with 1. (Spain obvs)

BM, RM, Barca, Milan, etc. etc. etc. = all examples playing with 1 striker
