Tubey84 Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Just wondering if anyone has ever had or seen a striker with almost unbelievably bad stats at top level clubs. On my game, Bobby Zamora has scored 10 goals with 1 assist in 75 games for Fulham. ^^ Can anyone beat that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest El Payaso Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Alex Nimely-Tchuimeni scored most goals in Premiership in season '11-12. Daniel Subuola scored twice for West Ham against my Everton side with unbelievable stats. And I had Yobo and Badstuber as CBs... Ah, and almost forgot. In my Benfica game Evandro Brandao scored twice against Porto when Cardozo and Nuno Gomes were injured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hershie Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 In FM or rl? In reality. In FM he's fairly accurately reflected, although perhaps too low technically (have discussed it in the data forum and waiting to see next update). He's performed well when I've managed Arsenal though. Good goals to games ratio and great in the cups and off the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oxford_Canary Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 I spent £10m on a Ukrainian FC called Semenyov. Looks like a tank going by his physical stats and supposedly can score a few with either his head or his feet. I wasn't looking for him to be my superstar, but he was a huge purchase for a newly promoted side (Palace) and scored 1 goal in the first 6 months. At one stage I had to take him out and give him a run in the reserves because he was missing so many chances and the commentary was saying his confidence was shot. He came back and scored a couple more, but by the time I was sacked (by a new board so I can tell myself it was nothing to do with the fact we were dead certs to get relegated ) I think he'd only managed 3 in total at a cost of £3.33333m per goal before signing fee, wages and bonuses (not many of them at least). I think he's done pretty well under my successor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I signed a regen for £6.5m and he scored single figures - in all competitions! No injuries either! I had to demote him to by Under-20s as an overage player to get his form back, only to discover he couldn't hit a barn door there either. I did impulse-buy him as Napoli went into administration and I got him as a cheap backup, although I suppose in hindsight Napoli were the ones that benefited. He's now at Genoa banging in nearly 20 league goals per season, typically. Hasn't scored against me... Yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RBKalle Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Diamanti is hardly a striker, so expecting him to score grapples of goals (in FM or IRL) is wishful thinking. As for me, I haven't had bad luck with my strikers so far, except with Tomas Pekhart [spurs fans probably remember him]. Signed him for free, and he seemed he could be a decent long-term substitute for the aging Steffen Iversen... Instead he failed to click with my tactic, or with whatever variation I tried, and he just managed to score ONE goal, delivering 5 assists in a total of 19 appearences over two seasons. In-between he was a hit in the B team and away on loan [second and First division respectively]. Now he's on loan again, at Espanyol [7 goals in 11 apps between La Liga and Copa del Rey], so I just assume it was my fault for him not being able to score or to play decently...

Oxford_Canary Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 So sounds like it was your tactics Ha! Touche. I should point out the guy has gone on to do well at a level below the one I signed him for. He's also Ukrainian and has taken 2 years to acquire basic English so clearly settling with the side was a problem. That aside, you're right because I never worked out how best to play him.

Porno_Piper Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 I signed Morimoto for my Real Betis team, didn't score any goals in his first 20 games (12 as a sub) 1 assist, then he cam out and started saying he thought the club was under achieving!!

SmithRDFC Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 Diamanti is a beast in front of goal compared with the two attackers Nani got us last season, Tristan and Di Michele were truly awful. In real life Iain Dowie went 28 games without a goal for the irons, For me the worst has been Genaro Zeefuik who scored an amazingly poor 12 goals in 129 games for Heerenveen.

Netm Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Salvatore Foti back in FM09, I signed him as a long term replacement for Drogba on my Chelsea team during a January window for something like £13-15m. The first year he was just *****, pure and simple, I think he managed something like a goal and an assist in 15-ish appearances and had a rating of 6.6 something. Anyways, a year after he came I had no choice but to use him as first choice striker due to injuries, and what does he do? He becomes the EPL top-scorer in 22 games (17 from start, and didn't start a game until mid-December) crisis averted! I guess I have, overall, been quite lucky with my strikers.

I used him primarily as a substitute target man whenever my team is behind and/or not been to score. And I set target man passing instructions to passes aiming at his head as he has pretty decent jumping and heading abilities. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chr1s Lawson Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Bendtner's 22 ffs He has loads of time to improve, and he has for me in my Arsenal save, past season 2. Top scorer for me last season, won CL Golden Boot with 11 in 11, including the CL matchwinner. I second that, he's very good for his age & target men are generally slower to develop irl because of the strength and intelligence aspect of their game, people judge him badly because he misses sitters sometimes but at least he gets into positions to score, the rest will come!
