Mackem742 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Hi all, Started off my Sunderland save at the weekend. Currently top of League 1 by 8 points in January and its mostly down to this guy, 24 goals in all competitions so far, he really is excellent. Obviously he probably is well known to people, especially fans of the English lower leagues but he is excellent for a lower league side. Im hoping to get promoted to the Championship to see if he can do it in that league. I know he has played for Forest before but his record was poor. He has done it in the Scottish Premier League for Hibs too. Biggest shock for me was that he is only 25, he seems to have been around for ages. I picked him up for cheap and Id recommend him to any teams in League 1 or 2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to correct you here, he scored all his goals for Hibs in the Scottish Championship. Didn't do much for Rangers in the Scottish Premiership.

Mackem742 Posted November 17, 2020 Author Share Posted November 17, 2020 Im not at my laptop so cant remember off the top of my head. I know he has 14 finishing and he has been lethal in League 1 for Sunderland. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich4115 Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 I bought him in for my Bham city save for backup to Scott Hogan. Hogan got injured and Cummings came in but didnt cut it in the championship... probably a good lower league player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm I was hoping he would make the step up but may have to start looking for an upgrade. Ill probably keep him around as backup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your game is unique and you’ll get so much more from the game if you trust your instinct and go for things with certain players than go against what you’re seeing in your game because one other person on this forum hasn’t had the same success.

Oh yeah Id make my own call on it. Ironically enough Im getting to the closing stages of my first season now, promotion looks a certainty (24 points clear of 3rd with only 27 points to play for) and he seems to have downed tools for a few games, the last 3 or 4 games he has had a 6.3/6.4 rating and no goals scored, its his worst run so far so I have criticised his recent form.

metallimuse Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 I've signed the Cumdog each year since FM14 I think it was, always a beast with great potential but I think this year he's more of a solid lower league player. I've got a huge soft spot for him and I'm sad that it didn't work out for him at my team, Rangers. I'll just leave this here as well... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
redders1977 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Great signing for next to nothing for my Wednesday team. I'd also add Eamon Brophy from Kilmarnock ( available for £120k!!!), Stevie Mallan from Hibs and Ryan Porteous from Hibs, 3 great players for less than 1.5m 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kostropaty Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 A BEAST. I cannot remember a striker who bagged more than 30 goals in a season for my team. He did, in almighty Shrews. Mr Ricketts, stick it on your windscreen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick1408 Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 I tried to get him to switch allegiance to Australia but wasn't successful. Wish I did though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
