I am starting to gain more confidence in Tainio. He has good control and has a nice pass on him. He doesn't seem to have much pace though and lacks aggression/influence or leadership but he does a sound job in midfield. Do you guys think he should be in the starting 11? I think Zokora and Lennon are definite starters and its a toss up between Tainio, Jenas and Malbranque to fill the other 2 positions. Also, should he play on the left or in the middle? It would be interesting to see what you think.
I think that the team is playing well at the moment without Huddlestone. Huddlestone is a qulaity player though but we need to fit him in somehow.
Tainio is a top man, I've seen him play for Finland and he was good. He has played on the left for Spurs but he's more efficient in the middle but that's again my opinion. He can be a mean tackler and that's why he's needed in the middle. The bad thing about Tainio is that he seems to be very injury prone. I like the lad.
