Match Thread HJK Helsinki 2 - 2 Aberdeen

[Andy_123]

This is the squad that should be starting the game v Frankfurt, not tonight.

Tonight is a winnable game 

[DelMonte]

Don’t mind it to be honest. Nothing game.

[minijc]

Fair play for the team selection, takes a lot of balls and a fuck load of booze to come up with that.

[muttonhumper]

Well, it's going to be entertaining in some shape or form.

4 centre halfs starting. Wacky. 

Maybe Milne in midfield?

Fuck knows.

Ach well, aside from the €500k it’s meaningless anyway. 

[Tord31]

So presumably its either Jensen at left wing back or Milne in centre mid?

Lets see what the strikers can do.

[keigy1983]

Not fussed either. Would rather this than someone important getting a stupid injury 

Plus see what some who've not kicked a baw all season look like

[Don_Corleone]

Oh well, at least we'll get to see a few of the squadies.

No idea what formation that is going to be... seems like a totally random set of players thrown together.

Roos
MacDonald Rubezic Jensen
Duncan Polvara Barron Milne Hayes
Duk Gueye

Can't see how he could fit 4 CBs in other than play one in midfield. Unless he plays one at RB, Jensen LB and goes with a 442.

Duk and Gueye up front should be good fun at least.

[Footballs coming Rome]

The Pape has been unleashed! 

[King Street Loon]

Tell the 1500 travelling dons fans you're treating it seriously, but not treating it seriously. 

Robson.

I don't mind fringe players getting a run out, but that's a defeat waiting to happen. 

[Ten Caat]

I thought there would be a few changes.

Wasn't expecting Milne and Gueye to be two of them though. 

Expecting a loss, but funnier things have happened

Imagine Milne in midfield is correct. Goes against what the club have been pushing for the last two years though where they have apparently worked hard to convert him to a centre half. Then give him his only start in midfield haha. 

[Snelders Snottters 89]

7 changes and still no Williams Or Dadia lol. The latter I hope is sent back to his club in Jan.

[Rico1903]

Duncan right wing back
Hayes left wing back
Milne, Barron and Polvara in the middle 
Gueye and Duk up front

????

Both need sent back in Jan. Pointless signings

[jamiesd]

Top trolling from Robson.

[zeroisgod76]

Bizarre team selection... not a team selection that suggests we're going all out for the win to reward the 1500 fans that have traveled over as Robson alluded to earlier.

The Black Death for the HJK Smell Stinky.

[WesthillWanderersFC]

I reckon it might be:

                         Roos

      Rubezic MacDonald Jensen.
                       Milne 
   Duncan Polvara Barron Hayes 
                   Duk Gueye 

I say that with little confidence though. 
Feck knows what the formation will be. 

2-0 Helsinki.

Probably right. He wont change from the 3-5-2 that’s working so well for us so far this season.

Duncan at wing back yet again is a ridiculous selection. The poor kid is never a wing back in a million years 

 

[Tommy]

Away to the pub to watch this. 3-3 draw.

[JumboJET]

Calling it now - Papa Gay is going to put in the worst performance by an AFC striker since Miles Storey and/ or Joshua Parker.

[Zeus]

The day big Pape comes good

Not going to lie, think he’s better at wing back than any other position I’ve seen him. He was getting a lot of stick on Saturday but thought he looked a lot more comfortable than the likes of MacKenzie.

Both need sending back in January as they're just gathering dust and getting paid handsomely for doing so.

Williams will end up at a club like Tranmere or Altrincham, whilst Dadia will go back to playing in the Golan, sorry, I meant heady, heights of the Israeli Premier League.

[Matt Armstrong's Dog]

An incredibly experimental starting XI.

I hope Gueye plays better than he did in the Aberdeenshire Shield game against Fraserburgh at Pittodrie and isn't wearing gloves.

 

[ERNIE]

500000 euros for a win .How much for a draw or a defeat?Probably a sensible choice with the crazy amount of games this month...

[thurso]

People complain the squad doesn’t get rotated with players rested when it happens they still moan. 
 

Helsinki ain’t that good 1-2 to the dandies 

[DelMonte]

Fuck the money. 

Rest the main team for Sunday. Huge game. Robsons excuse that they are tired will be out the window at least.
