Thomas Doll pointed out some interesting stuff about him here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EcGibWXSlEk

Maybe he could get an update, particularly his speed but also lower RES and TMW (2nd set) and maybe higher ATT...

Sorry to disappoint you but the text about Thom won't be very helpful as it doesn't contain any characteristics of his play.
"Nur wenige würden heute bestreiten, dass Andreas Thom das größte Talent des DDR-Fußballs in den 1980er-Jahren war."
"Trainer Jürgen Bogs bezeichnete den gebürtigen Rüdersdorfer und Rainer Ernst als die begnadetsten Fußballer, die durch seine Hände gegangen sind."
"Und auch dem Westen erreichten Thom Urteile im Superlativ. Berti Vogts charakterisierte ihn als "perfekt" und Franz Beckenbauer als "einen der komplettesten Fußballer, die ich gesehen habe."
"Sowohl beim BFC als auch in er Nationalmannschaft war Thom ab dann das Maß aller Dinge im Angriffszentrum. Er war auf dem besten Wege, in die Fußstapfen von Sturmlegenden wie Peter Ducke oder Joachim Streich zu treten."
Btw, nice to hear what players Doll put in his dream team. I'm happy to be one of the people who know Gerd Kische
