    HJK Helsinki league form: P19 W10 L3 L6 F28 A16 P33 GD+12 CURRENT LEAGUE POSITION (2ND) AS OF 28TH JULY 2012.

    Such a difference in comparison from their home form to their away form.

    Home = P9 W7 D2 L0 F18 A4 PTS 23/27 GD +14

    Away = P10 W3 D1 L6 F10 A12 PTS 10/30 GD -2

    If we don't beat them at Celtic Park, and preferably by atleast 2 clear goals, then something is seriously wrong.

    Mate if Watt canny get a start in pre season then I doubt he will feature in a CL match.

    Good line-up but if I was to alter anything I'd drop Lustig, put Wanyama in at CH, put Kayal in the middle with Brown on the right side.

    I like Commons in behind the strikers though.

    Wanyama has to start in CM after that performance today mate.

    Is Rogne injured? He would be alongside Charlie for me.

    Assuming Rogne and Brown are fit for starting and Commons and Stokes aren't then I'd play something like this in a 4-3-3/4-5-1 formation:

    Forster; Matthews, Rogne, Mulgrew, Izaguirre; Brown, Wanyama, Ledley; Forrest, Samaras; Hooper. 7 Subs - Zaluska, Lustig, M.Fraser/Toshney, Kayal, Commons (McGeough if he's not fit for even the bench), McCourt, Stokes (Watt if he's also not fit for bench but it'll be Bangura/Murphy)

    Whatever team it is, let's hope we pump those Finns. :50:

    After today I'm now thinking we should just play that team on Wednesday. If Commons and Stokes' injuries are enough to keep them out then I'd go
    Forster
    Matthews:rogne::mulgrew:Izaguirre
    :brown:Wanyama:ledley:
    :forrest::samaras:
    :hooper:​
    Maybe put Kayal in for Brown depending on fitness.

    For any HJK fans on this forum, what are your thoughts going into wednesday's game after today's 1-0 loss to FC Haka?

    Why on earth would you accomodate Lustig into his weaker position, Rogne from RCB to LCB and Mulgrew into his weaker position at LB and most of all, dropping Izaguirre?

    Sammy in CM?

    Charlie is wasted at LB, Wanyama is wasted at CB, Lustig shouldn't be in the first team atm, Izzy is not a winger.
