Default Stipe Pletikosa

Stipe Pletikosa





Club: Spartak Moscow
Nation: Croatia
DOB: 8/1/1981
Age: 28
Place of birth: Split, Croatia
Height: 6ft 4”
Weight: 88KG
Value: £2M
Preferred foot: Right only
Caps:

Personnel

Languages: Croatian, English, Russian
Favoured clubs: Hajduk
Favoured personnel: Igor Tudor
Personality: Fairly determined
Rep: National

Contract

Type: Full time contract
Asking price: unknown
Wages: £4,900 per week
Started: 17/2/2007
Expires: 31/12/2009
Bonuses: £2,400 appearance bonus, £1500 clean sheet bonus



A product of Hajduk’s youth school, Pletikosa spent the first 7 years (1996-2003) of his professional career in his hometown side, before eventually moving abroad to Shakthar Donetsk in a package that included his national teammate Darijo Srna (fee was apparently around $1.7m). He never really settled in Ukraine, gathering only 22 appearances through seasons 2003-2005, so the obvious choice was a loan back to his hometown club Hajduk Split. After this loan had ended, Pletikosa returned to Shakthar but shortly after made a 3.6m transfer to Spartak Moscow. He has established himself as a regular in his new side, and was actually voted the best goalkeeper and foreign player in the Russian league. Pletikosa had established himself as a first choice NT goalkeeper since his debut against Denmark in 1999.



1996–2003 - Hajduk Split – Apps 162
2003–2005 – Shakhtar Donetsk - Apps 28
2005–2006 – Hajduk Split(loan) - Apps 22
2006–2007 - Shakhtar Donetsk – Apps 3
2007 – Present – Spartak Moscow – Apps 37





As we can see from the screenie Stipe’s stats don’t look like they would be could enough for the top teams in England and Spain for example. He may become prone to the odd error or two as his low composure and concentration stats will let him down. I would recommend buying Pletikosa for leagues like Holland, Belguim etc He would be a great signing if you were pushing for promotion but im not sure a player of his rep would want to move down that far.



The strengths that Stipe does have are the following:

Command of area – 15
One on ones – 17
Reflexes – 17
Anticipation – 16
Bravery – 17
Determination – 17
Agility –16
Jumping –15
Natural fitness –17
Stamina – 15



The problem with stipe is that he has weaknesses in key areas were you would expect them to be high for a top class keeper

Handling –13
Balance – 11
Aerial – 14
Communication – 12
Composure – 10
Concentration –13



Stipe could be a bit hit and miss sometimes on fm. I would recommend him for the lower leagues around Europe as I feel he may not be up to the quality of leagues such as La Liga and the Premiership. I could be wrong tho.

On the old games I always hated Pletikosa because I always seemed to draw Shakhtar in the European Cup and he'd always play a blinder.

I have bought him on FM 2008 for Newcastle where he spent merely a season with me due to his incosistancy.

Awesome guide yet again Mr. 10.
