Hope so but I think if they were offered penalties right now, they would snap your arm off for it. If they get one and shut up shop, I'm not overly confident we will break them down.

Lets hope the sexy big Greek * has one of his games though and he'll destroy them:icon_mrgreen:

 

Balde to get some minutes? I'm kidding we all know he'll take his seat on the bench and not move for the entire 90 minutes

Ambrose

 

I don't really want to but I just think that Sammy would be better suited to the counter attacking game that we will no doubt have to play.

 

I agree but it would be extremely harsh on Stokes and detrimental to his confidence to give him the elbow after that today.

Tough one.

 

I don't think we will have to play a counter attacking game agaisnt them. The ball was never out of their half. We should attack them again; give them no chance of coming back with an away goal.

​

Boerrigter in the natural sweeper position with brown leading the line, 5-0 to the buoys in green

 

2-0 Celtic. They're pish and will get found out when they actually need to come at us.

 

That's true, happens all too often to Stokes as well. Wouldn't want to be Lennon come Wednesday night.

 

Not really, they have a good reputation. They have become one of the top teams in recent years so they dont have a lot of huliganism problem or anything like that. I dont think they play dirtier than any other team, Swedish league is kinda like the championship. The play is rough.

Why the * is there an add where i typed ``problem´´. Is it my computer or have TC started with hidden ads?

 

I don't watch the English second tier (or the English first tier for that matter) but I have seen plenty of Allsvenskan matches - I don't remember any Swedish team being as cynical as Elfsborg were against us.

 

What's happened to the Swedish Elfsborg fan lately that was giving it the big'in before the first leg?

Not here due to his teams recent poor results?

 

Link to thread?

 

Wouldn't put Ambrose anywhere near the plane to Sweden

Had me and several other people in my section on a knifedge all game and to be quite frank, this is too big a game for anybody to mess up

Anyway, my team for wed;

4-5-1

Stuff up the midfield and give protection to the defence is the priority....but we WILL have plenty of chances so as long as we take just one then it should put the game to bed as they would need 3

Teenage wannabe keyboard warrior by the looks of it.

As they say in Swedish, pinligt.

Thanks for the link.

 

Stuffing the midfield would be dropping one of Sammy, Forrest or Commons for Kayal.

that is essentially still four attackers you have on there, which isn't a bad thing but it's not stuffing the midfield, so to speak.

 

Was that the idiot who said Larsson wasn't world class?

 

They will be pressing from the start and well hit them in the break with our pace and Sammy will destroy them with this
2-0 as they will be far more open than the game at park head as they have nothing to protect thats why commons goal was so important
