It's no use having a squad full of star players without a decent way for them to play their football.

Default Run onto Ball or To Head

I know it can depend on what type of player you have as your target man but what's the general consensus of the best type of pass to the target man? I prefer 'to head' so other players can collect the knock down but sometimes this isn't always the best tactic to use in games.

Any ideas?

It depends on the style of football your team play. I find if playing a short passing game, to feet works best for me, If i am behind i go more direct and hit it long to the big mans head. If i am defending a lead but counter attacking, i select run onto ball for a quick striker to make use of a long ball into the space left when the opposition are attacking me.

The big target man seems useless in the 08 demo. Players like Crouch and Zigic who are bigger than 2m tall struggle to win headers against Ben-Haim who is much shorter and not as good at jumping.
