Helsinki game

afternoon champions

looking at our home game against helsinki who are half way through there season and now top of there league this is a game we must not take lightly!

4-5-1 is a must a scrappy 1-0 win would do just fine no need for lennys gung-ho 4-4-2/3-5-2 approach

a simple defensive passing game much like the way walter smith lined his team up against decent opposition

we must make group stages of champ league or face playing with this squad all season no signings no new centre back and no new number 9

make no bones about it we will not sign anybody unless we make group stages of champ league at very best maybe a loan signing or 2!

with that said we need to line up something like this

forster
matthews--ronge--mulgrew--izzy
------------------wanyama------------
forrest-----brown----ledley-----sameras/commons
-----------------hooper/sameras-------

if sammy plays wide left (and i think he should) play hooper up front not his best position and yes he needs a 2nd striker to be at his best but he is better there than stokes on his own

if commons plays left mid then it gives us a good chance from set plays andhe can score a goal or 2 when he is on form and forrests pace on right should cause any left back problems

wanyama must play infront of back 4 to provide cover for izzy and matthews when they go forward plus he has good strength to hold up there number 10 who ever he is (is rafinha still there?)

heres hoping for good 2 or 3 nil win but as ive said id take 1-0 now we must not concead!!
