Hibs boss Mixu hoping Elfsborg have it all wrong

Published Date: 04 July 2008
By DAVID HARDIE
MIXU PAATELAINEN today admitted he hopes InterToto Cup rivals IF Elfsborg's spy trip to Easter Road has left the Swedish side with a false impression of Hibs.
Elfsborg boss Magnus Haglund dispatched his assistant Jesper Bengtsson to Edinburgh to take in Hibs' final match of last season, a game Paatelainen's players lost 2-0.

But, as Haglund revealed today, that remains the only first-hand glimpse the Swedes have had of Hibs in action while Paatelainen has built up a complete dossier on Elfsborg having watched them play against Djugarden on Wednesday night while coach Gareth Evans spied on them a week earlier.

Paatelainen said: "We were poor defensively and in midfield that night against Motherwell and, obviously, I am hoping we play much better on Sunday.

"Elfsborg are very dangerous, they have plenty of pace so we have to defend well, be more solid than we were in that game."

Haglund believes the fact Paatelainen has had two recent opportunities to see his side play while he has been denied the chance to see Hibs in action is advantageous to the Capital outfit.

But Paatelainen again stressed the fact Elfsborg, currently sitting second in the Allsvenskan, have the upper hand as they are midway through their season with just one defeat in 12 league matches.

He said: "We want to play as well as we can and we will give it our best shot. But this is our first game after the summer break."

Actually there would be no point in David Hardie going to Easter Road unless it was to talk to Iron Rod Petrie. Mixu is based at the (£4.9 million) training complex.

My suspicion is that they are holding back on news about signings till after the first leg of the Inter Toto to ensure focus on that. Having said that however, if there were any players that have been approached, usually at least one of them, or more likely his agent, is talkin to the press to try to bump up the contract cost.

As regards signings, I think the Jonansson will not arrive until his contact with Malmo expires in November.

On the game on Sunday, watch out for Mixu playing H.C. O'Brien from the start. (Headless Chicken - free range)

Go back to the Jambo threads with all the other idiots and believers. Who cares 1 iota if you have been 'cloned' You never have anything worthwhile to say anyway so your 'clone' can hardly be any worse.
I take it the schools are out in Scotland right now? If not- it must mean you have never been and are merely waiting for your giro. Gonna be a long weekend for you idiot eh?

I think you need to modify your post to single out this paranoid schitzophrenic 'Indie Rep Kid'. There were some sensible posts lost in his nonsense. And furthermore (I've started so I'll finish) I agree that these type of idiots spoil what could be an entertaining exchange of opinions.

Did you just move from thread to thread posting the same "song"? You did didn't you. Well let me be the first to congratulate you on such a humorous little sonnet. You must have copied that from somewhere. I don't believe you could conjure that up on your own.
