Potter seems to really believe in him, that's why we let two of our senior strikers go out on loan for the rest of the season. So the signs are that he will definitely be given time. So although you're not wrong that the Albion's striker options are a bit limited, I think it's more about Potter having a specific plan for how Aaron will be used this season. He hasn't just been chucked in out of desperation.
NB. were Aaron to suffer a significant barren spell or drop in form, then we actually do have a number (when fit) of attack-minded midfielders and wide players. So there are options for the front three. Just not that many out-and-out strikers.
Have to admit I'm surprised he's been given so much playing time already - it's all happened very fast. But i'm not complaining!
