The scoundrels|Joel Pohjanpalo has had little playing time in Huuhkaj.
Joel Pohjanpalon30, the treatment in Huuhkaj speaks volumes.
Playing as a star in FC Venezia, Pohjanpalo scores goals in the high-level Italian main league, but playing time in the Finnish A national team is scarce.
Pohjanpalo said on Monday that he was disappointed with the situation.
“I am disappointed with my own role in the national team. It’s quite natural. If someone were to say that they were satisfied in this situation, they would be in the wrong environment with the wrong interests,” Pohjanpalo said in Helsinki.
Football expert Marko Rajamäki in my opinion, Huuhkajie’s coaching team must find ways to get Pohjanpalo into the starting line-up.
“Bigger football countries can have ten hot attackers, from which they can choose the players that suit their style of play. Finland is such a small soccer country that we don’t have this opportunity. We, in turn, have to adjust our way of playing in a suitable way so that we can get hot players in,” says Rajamäki.
Huuhkajat will play two Nations League matches this week. Markku Kanervan the piloted team will face Ireland on Thursday and England on Sunday.
“Yes, at the moment Jolle has to be on the field. I’m really surprised if Pohjanpalo doesn’t open on Thursday,” Rajamäki says.
Rajamäki emphasizes that Huuhkajie’s entire game system does not need to be rebuilt. Instead, it’s all about the small details within the game.
“We need to modify our way of playing with small actions to make it better suited to the best players. No big changes are needed, and Pohjanpalok can play this game in many ways,” said Rajamäki.
“Pohjanpalo needs players with running power around him. The second is that he needs balls to box. There is absolutely no need to focus from far away. However, somehow you have to get the balls into the box so that Pohjanpalo can play in their own area of strength,” continued Rajamäki.
Previously, e.g. Rajamäki, who worked as a coach for TPS and KuPS, emphasizes that the Huuhkajie must continue to take better account of the players who are hit hard.
“At the moment it [kuuma pelaaja] is Pohjanpalo, but in the Christmas-January-February window it could be another player. In my opinion, the way of playing does not need to be corrected just because of Pohjanpalo. It also needs to be filed, for example Teemu Pukki, Benjamin Källman and Kairi too for.”
“If it were the case that Pohjanpalo does not fit our new way of playing, then he should not be selected for the team. But that would be completely absurd, it would be a complete disaster,” Rajamäki continued.
Finnish started the Nations League in September with two away defeats. Greece scored 0–3 and England scored 0–2. Pohjanpalo played half an hour in Piraeus, Greece, but he didn’t get a single minute at Wembley in London.
The Finnish striker has played five matches in the Italian top flight this season, in which he has scored two goals.
