Agree with all that.This past season, he showed beyond any doubt that he can be a very effective option off the bench in the Premier League. Of that, there really isn't any debate.
Now, leading the attack week in and week out with consistent results? He hasn't shown that (yet). Will he? Who knows?

He won't be effective next season unless he learns something new. Against West Ham, James Collins had him in his pocket the whole match! James friggin Collins!!! Everyone knows what he does, what his move is. Hopefully Martinez will give him something extra or at least show him how to lay a ball off when he's got it at his feet.
