Ambrose, Rogne, K.Wilson, Izaguirre

Brown, Wanyama, Kayal Ledley

Samaras
Hooper

Forrest, Commons, and Miku emerging from the bench to win it for us.
​

 

2-1 us got a good feeling now!

 

Ambrose at RB? No Mulgrew? No Commons? Odd team mate.

 

Forgot about Mulgrew, actually. Stick him in for Rogne.

And Matthews probably won't play, so the big man goes to RB.

Samaras is more of a physical threat, so I'd start him ahead of Commons.

Hooper

Harsh dropping Ledley but victor is a sensational player, and brown is our captain.
Kayal is on of my favourite players but hes just back from injury and hasnt played much in the last year. On another note we should be done with the 442 even at home, too rigid a formaiton and would prefer an attacking 4-2-3-1

When everone is match fit will be almost impossible to keep everyone happy, not complaining though.

 

heart says a win but to be honest ,a draw will be a great result

 

will be a tough game think it might be the oneil tactic of 5 3 2 which can change to 5 4 1 to 4 5 1 to 3 5 2 or just have the levein tactic of 10 in defence glad i dont have lennons job trying to get the selection and tactics right hope we got at worst a point

 

Got my tickets today

 

Aww * mathews a doubt... That's a big Blow.

 

It may be stereotypical but let's not kid ourselves: who hasn't seen a Scot (including Celtic supporters, be honest now, that Celtic FC tartan gives youse away...) abroad out in a bar in a kilt, lapping up the attention of all the hen parties in the immediate proximity trying to stick their hands up him.

 

Very rarely see a Celtic fan in a kilt.

 

Plenty at European away games.

 

Which we play in relatively rarely.

And still at that I wouldn't say 'plenty', probably see 2-3 when you're away.

 

Just seen pics of the players at the airport and Matthews is wearing some protective cast type thing on his right leg anyone know anything about this

 

I agree. Even at European away games Tims in kilts are a very small proportion but even then that's a lot in absolute numbers. We've all seen them lapping up the attention and fair play to them if that's what they want to do, but we shouldn't then be surprised if European journalists ask us about kilts.

And before anyone points it out I abhor the tacky leprachaun hats that are now a staple of any sporting event involving Ireland. They look absolutely * awful and contribute very much to Europeans' patronising views of us. We should get some self-respect.

Sorry, it's Monday.

 

Lighten up man

More or less the team I'd go with, but Rogne hasn't played as much as Kelvin recently, so it makes me wonder what state the Norwegian is in.

 

Thomas Rogne would be nowhere near my team tomorrow. I like him but I'd be playing Mulgrew, Wilson, Wanyama or Ambrose in there before him tomorrow just as a result of his current form/that artificial pitch with his injuries/to get the 4 central midfielders in the one team.
