    Definitely could be molded into a * player when only played 10 minutes at the end of games.

    Lets bid say......2m:50:

    Bit * harsh.

    One never got a decent crack at it, the other was played as a one man striker most of the time, when he needed/needs a partner to play with.

    Some goal.

    Shame he never got and will probably never get a real chance here.

    Just think he needed a run of games to gain confidence/match sharpness, he would definitely get on the end of some of Izzys crosses.

    Did anyone notice how well he worked with pukki when given the chance last season. They were brilliant with eachother in the antalya cup

    Definitely both of them looked great never really given a chance to work together and neither of them deployed in a position of time slot that suits them hope they both get a actual chance in the future.

    Can hardly use a couple of daft friendly matches to judge him... when he and Pukki were given the chance when it mattered, they both bottled it.

    Yes, I noticed that. Teemu & Amido & The Happy Days Are Here Again.

    Is there somebody here not so blind and really understands they can score?

    When Teemu left he stated it was difficult to display his abilities in a league where 10 men sat behind the ball.
    In the Anatalya Cup they were playing against teams who played open attacking footie and were thus able to show what they were capable of.
    I think its our type of football that they couldn't and (wont ever really) function in. :shamrock::shamrock::shamrock:

    You are right. :50:

    Besides the Antalaya cup games weren't competitive ones but even more open football. Teemu and Amido are thriving in these games. Plus Amido had little more minutes under his belt at the time. I think both Amido and Teemu will still be doing very well wherever they are going during the footballing careers.

    Teemu played nice against the Faroe Islands although not scoring this time the other night. He had an assist, give nice passes and created scoring chances for two goals. Very good evening for him.

    In every country they play their own kind of football. The football that fits their national character. The Scotts are always showing a physical fighting spirit and that's good. Think they should always build their football on that.

    Us, the Finns and generally speaking Europeans play more openly. We have also a kind of fighting spirit called "sisu" meaning "persistant willpower" but it's not so physical compared to the Scottish football.

    Amido is still pretty young, a good run of games and experience while on loan should do wonders for him
