Celtic v Barcelona UCL 7/11/12 KO 7.45pm

Think he'll only start if Sammy doesn't make it what's happening with Forrest btw?

 

You're right, undoubtedly...I simply seem them still going for 3 pts in each contest and even if the usual suspects aren't starting, it will hardly be a rubbish XI...They did this in year's past and would still come away with wins

I understand the concern from the Celtic perspective but from mine, you needn't worry...It'll give culés a chance to see the bench & youth players shine on a bigger stage but winning will be expected

 

Can i remind everyone that Hooper is not playing tonight.

Forrest is def out.

 

Why do people get up some players arses for no reason. Nothing irritates me more than when you see people say the likes of watt or paddy should start over our best players in big games. Watt is a good player and has potential to be a great player, but you cant drop sammy for him vs Barcelona.

 

Is it defo a 7:45 KO. The sky programme starts at 6 which is making me think its an earlier kick off time

 

I'd be getting Miku in there then. More experienced and knows what it tkes to play this lot.

 

Yes, MIKU should start...seriosuly, he is the only one with real La Liga experience to not play him now would be outrageous! (assuming the formation is setup for one striker up front)

 

Don't get me wrong, Watt is a fantastic talent but he lacks experience. Miku for me with Watt to come on if we go 2 up as his pace, enthusiasm and drive will cause problems for a tired defense

 

I know my friend, even your youngsters can give most teams a run for there money, and you will undoubtedly go for the win, I would just feel more confident if the usual players were starting!

I would just hate for us to lose out of qualifying because Barcelona weren't giving there all against the other teams. But I'll take your word for it

 

I agree, I'd play Miku before Watt. Would be a * of a lot of pressure to place on a young guy's shoulders. Besides providing the game is still close late on bringing him on as a sub could be vital.

Just saw this, sounds excellent!

 

And how are you doing that exactly? There no quotes in there

 

Fair point mate. Now hoping and praying that the Daily Hun is wrong

 

, or

i'd put a a pound on something totally unexpected

.............Forster
Lustig Wilson Mulgrew Ledley
...Brown Kayal Wanyama
.....Commons Sammy
.............Miku

more likely

...............Forster
Lustig Ambrose Wilson Mulgrew
Brown Kayal Wanyama Ledley
...........Miku Sammy

score 2-1

 

Lennon said: "Hooper is very, very doubtful" the other day.

 

Exactly, remember what happened to wee Jamesy's shoulders!

 

Usually is budH Here's hoping it is again.

If this is the case i really hope Miku gets the nod ahead of Watt. But i'm really praying both Samaras and Hooper will make it.

 

Me too. I've said since 5 mins after he went off in the last game that Sammy is vital for Europe and Barca particuarly. We need a fully-mobile Broony too.

 

Tony Watt hopefully has the chance to be a hero at 18. His abillity to hold the ball up and even run with it will be vital.

Baffled at people including Miku when he struggled badly to hold the ball up against Benfica.

 

Because he's better than Watt who hasn't even proven himself at SPL level, nevermind against top, top quality sides.
