I cant find that guy anywhere at dundee.

Just started a new game with blackpool with all leagues loaded and a large database. Have no idea where he is as its only the first day.
 
He just scores for fun for me, bought him 1st season for Saints and rotated him with Guly after retraining to be striker with Barnard and Lambert rotating the target man role. 40 appearances and 47 goals in all comps, currently mid Sept in 2nd season and played 6 scored 4!

I've found when playing him upfront on his own he plays well as an Attacking Complete Forward, not sure why though! Forgot to change the setting for him when I changed my tactics and he scored 2 in that game so must work lol
 
Ran him in partner with Etien Velikonja a similar Slovakian or Slovenian can't remember, anyway was QPR and ran a 50 odd goal partnership, both as poachers was pretty impressed :)
 
hes now played 21 scored 39 for me in my southampton season play him as poacher
 
He and Connor Whickam are an awesome partnership for my Ipswich side this year (along with my new favourite player, Don Cowie - £650k bargain).
 
Anyone have problems with this boys temper ? Seems to get sent off a lot for me
 
i have actually never used him despite all the hype
 
Using him now in my QPR save, second season.

He's yet to score his first Premier League goal, but I expected that, so I am keeping faith in him. Plus, he has got potential.
 
Who would be a good partner for him for around a million?
 
****, I did buy him and he's gooood... this makes no sense... kinda like To Madeira from 01/02 (anyone else playing the game for that long???) My guess is that the stats he has combined with "tries first-time shots" make for a killer combo.

I use him as poacher too and he's my back-up for Torres against weak teams..

That's nothing mate i still play champ man 98 99.
 
I might consider this guy for my Standard team, despite already having Cyriac Zoro Gohi Bi.
 
I've always been put off buying him as I've mistakenly underrated his attributes, despite now knowing he's got it (pace, finishing, composure) where it counts. Needed a good striker at the start of my Hearts save (initially intended to be a journeyman save, but I've become settled), and his nationality, age and price - got him for £250k - won me over.

First season he bagged 39 in 42 (1) and got the European Golden Boot, and in October '11 he's already 16 in 13 for the season and has 9 in his past 5. Play him as a poacher alongside a targetman on support (Kevin Kyle in first season, Pandiani/Budan next).
 
seems to miss alot of 1 on 1's for me.. but scores every couple of games
 
Hmm might try him as im nearly promoted into the premiership with Ipswich i have stuck with Wickham untill now but if hes cheap hes cheap :)
