all hes goals were first time finishes , he looks too similar to jelly , need a striker to support him not act the same...

This was my thought exactly. Another great one touch finisher with a knack for placing himself in a good position to poach or stab a goal. Never created a shot for himself. Players like dost and jelavic depend on others helping to pull a defense out of shape so they can find a space. Need a complementary player, one who could create a shot with a cutback, someone who could dribble 30 yards on a break. Someone with quickness.

Dost and jelavic together would bang in some goals, but they would be far too dependent on good service from the team. We are already seeing jelavic get frustrated when the team doesn't serve him a perfect ball, I don't see that front line working.
 
He's about 6.9m out of our range.

Good for a theoretical debate on how a player we will never sign may effect our style of play though.
 

We can't afford 6.5M for a main striker never mind a back up for jelavic.

And No moyes won't play 2 up top (which is not a criticism)

Why can't Everton find their own strikers?! First Jelavic, now it could be Dost! #EFC #WHU
 

From the looks of youtube he's a goal poacher whose good in the air, we already have one of those so it's a:

I've watched Heerenveen plenty of times, he's overrated. He has a lot of goals but he misses so many chances. He won't cut it in a big European league.
