Not with 2 outright strikers though, its always been one striker up front and a midfield headerer to knock it down (Cahill) or now we have Fellaini to chest it down and start play.
4-4-2 is having 2 strikers working for each other. We've tried it a few times this season with Jelavic and Anichebe and been massacred every time.
Cahill and Fellaini have played as outright strikers, though.
If that's not 4-4-2 than all the big little man strike partnerships like crouch and defoe or phillips and quinn aren't 4-4-2 either.
And didn't we win a few games with Anichebe and Jelavic? Though I agree it doesn't look promising as a partnership, which is why I didn't suggest it.
