Forssell gets Horse's shirt

Last updated : 13 September 2003 By Brian Cartlidge
The Finland international striker, who is expected to make his Blues debut against Fulham on Sunday, will wear the number nine shirt for the duration of his initial four month loan spell from Chelsea having initially been given the number 27 shirt before the Horse's departure to the JJB Stadium last week.

Forssell is being widely tipped to lead the Blues attack in the televised clash with the Cottagers at St. Andrew's on Sunday after an impressive performance for his country in the Euro 2004 qualifing draw with Wales in midweek, in which he scored the Finns equalising goal.
