I suggest looking at some physical target man types. Maybe Kenwyne Jones from sunderland worked well on his own up front for me. Maybe Christian Nade from hearts as he is very physical aswell and scores tons in spl. not sure how he'd do in prem though. Not had him personally but Kevin Doyle apparently is the business on FM too. He could be your best bet. | | | | 08-05-08, 08:03 PM | #6 (permalink) | | Used In Squad Rotation Join Date: May 2007 Posts: 273 Thanks: 0 Thanked 22 Times in 16 Posts | if your boro dont u have one of the best lone strikers in this game in my opinion which is alves? as for other lone strikers try Jo from CSKA Moscow or Vagner Love from CSKA Moscow both might have moved tho huntelaar from ajax is a brilliant finisher but might cost quite a bit stancu can get the job done for a cheap fix if played right |  thanks to Josh for makin this awesome sig! | | | | The Following User Says Thank You to shadowbrewster For This Useful Post: | | 08-05-08, 09:42 PM | #7 (permalink) | | Decent Youngster Join Date: Aug 2007 Posts: 10 Thanks: 2 Thanked 0 Times in 0 Posts | Quote: Originally Posted by shadowbrewster if your boro dont u have one of the best lone strikers in this game in my opinion which is alves? as for other lone strikers try Jo from CSKA Moscow or Vagner Love from CSKA Moscow both might have moved tho huntelaar from ajax is a brilliant finisher but might cost quite a bit stancu can get the job done for a cheap fix if played right | I thought I did in Alves too, but in the 1st season he scored a mighty 4 goals all season....NO INJURIES!! So, he got shipped off the Blackburn for £6m....!! Ajax accepted my £17m bid for KJH, but he wasn't interested... Never had Jo personally, but heard good things...will make a bid for him...!!

Note: He might seem rubbish, but a couple of seasons in and he is great. Currently has 34 league goals for Southend in Championship. When i was in Premier league with him he was on 5th topscorer place. Might not be what you are looking for now, but definetly someone for the future. | | | | | 16-05-08, 11:28 PM | #18 (permalink) | | Used In Squad Rotation Join Date: May 2007 Posts: 273 Thanks: 0 Thanked 22 Times in 16 Posts | trebuta try kikin fonseca is mexican and plays for tigres at start of game or Roberto Nurse is a gd target man is free at start but should still be within your money range |  thanks to Josh for makin this awesome sig! | | | 17-05-08, 12:42 PM | #19 (permalink) | | Decent Youngster Join Date: Dec 2006 Posts: 12 Thanks: 2 Thanked 0 Times in 0 Posts | both my offers accepted for kikin and roberto, but both don't want to come :s | | | | | 17-05-08, 03:04 PM | #20 (permalink) | | Used In Squad Rotation Join Date: May 2007 Posts: 273 Thanks: 0 Thanked 22 Times in 16 Posts | hmm i would of thought those 2 would come but means there probs allready at a high level club try falcao is columbian and is a brilliant young striker |  thanks to Josh for makin this awesome sig! | | |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | | All times are GMT.
