Yes, you can puyt in players who are good at scoring goals, but you can't give them any goal scoring role. The only tactics available that I've seen have all been defensive (aside from Grinder)
It's the old John Kordic story. Guy's big, so he's told not to score goals, just go out and hit people. Happens all the time, so not really surprising it's doable in FHM. What's annoying is that you can't not do it. You have no option to tell that player to go score goals.
