do any of you guys play with defensive forwards. do there score lots of goals. could you play the like of delfounso, torres, dzeko etc. are is the role more suited for the like of tevez, kevin davies them type of players?
 
I don't think Torres suits being a defensive forward - neither do the ones that you've suggested.I think they need to be strong and powerful with a fair amount of ability to win the ball.I dunno,that's my thought about it.Never played a defensive forward before so I would never know.
 
i've never played with a defensive forward before. could anyone give me some names of strikers who are defensive forwards and/or you have played as def forwards and done well.
 
they need high stamina and good mental stats to keep trying to hassle opponents. obviously a decent tackling stat helps.

anyone annoying and 'waspish' is good, tevez, bellamy are good examples.

i think the word defensive puts people off. they arent defensive really. they jsut hassle opponents more, meaning you should win the ball back closer to the opponents goal more often
 
so if i played this guy there you think he'll do good
 
I think if you play that guy anywhere in any role he'll be a beast. What a beast! :O
 
I highly regard Ivica Olic as a defensive forward.Especially in his showing during Bayern's Champions League campaign.

High work rate,excellent stamina and a good team player - he's the man for it.
 
As Coach said Kuyt is one of the players who would suit the role.
 
Heskey is basically the archetypal defensive forward. Olic is good too. Basically look for a target man with good defensive stats. Stuff like pace, acceleration, and flair aren't so useful. Strength, teamwork, work rate, marking, tackling are all necessities. Passing, bravery and finishing are all bonuses.
 
cragswfc this guy was born to play as a complete forward. Defensive forwards need good work rate stamina and strenght would be good. Also agility :)
