Yes he does , he also takes alot of shots from over 50 out .
But he hasn't converted up to his ability , over his career.
I've heard it mentioned in the media quite a bit Walls and Sheahan occasionally go on about it , Walls mind you has a lower conversion rate as a Centre Half Forward than Buckley does as a Midfielder.

Adem Yze has achieved 'star status' with his small fan base, it seems. However, a quick glance over his record suggests that he is servicable at best. If you compare his career with a real star, it's glaringly obvious that Yze just doesn't have what it takes to be included in the elite group.

I compared Yze's record to Buckley's record over the same period of time and cam to the following not so startling conclusions:

Buckley not only beats Yze in every statistical category, he smashes him.

See for yourself...
