Definitely, he was completely isolated for most of the match.

I'd rather kick him out of the starting XI but it's just that we don't have that many options up front. We don't have a single quality striker which is a big worry for us. Scoring has always been extremely difficult for us (even more so now that Litmanen isn't playing).

you know when litmanen retired i though sparv and sjolund would get their chance but no they are rotting on the bench in favour of some no name finnish midfielders

ive seen them a couple of time when they play(ed) in allsvenskan they are great

if you look at our team, we have got alot of players in allsvenskan that plays for our team, which is why theyve got great chemistry

anyways hope you find your striker soon, havent you got any young promising ones that you could test out???

Agreed with first three.

Regarding the fourth, not really. Teemu Pukki played for Sevilla few seasons ago and looked promising, now he's back to Finland and I'm not sure what comes out of him.

Lauri DallaValle has some promise but I haven't watched too much of him and he doesn't seem like a world beater anyway.

Berat Sadik, starter of our U-21 team is plain average. He's big but couldn't hit the barn door, he won't help us with our finishing problems.

So the situation looks a bit bleak Then again, I'm not an expert on Finnish youth players, maybe someone lese would know more. Art perhaps?
