Done a bit of digging and I thought I would share my findings to see what sort of player we have got on our hands...

We need to consider the fact that Freiburg are bottom of the league with just 13 points from 17 games and have scored just games 21 goals (9 of which were scored by Cisse). So here we are...

So what do we reckon then? He looks promising considering that he is playing for a very poor team, lets just make sure that he doesn't try to whip in too many crosses...

 

Another striker who scores more with his feet than head. Long term we'll be playing passing football maybe?

 

Shola and Best will be conscious that their offside’s total may be beaten this season.

 

I think he scored a lot more with his head last season, judging by that youtube video posted yesterday. So he seems capable at scoring with all parts of the body, including 'other'!

 

I was wondering if 'other' means he pulled off a Shola-esque Shin/Arse/Back/Knee* Shot.

Couldn't care less what he scores with as long as the ball ends up in the net.
