    Today is when the result of the 1st leg really hits you. Even if we were going into tonight's match trailing 0-1 on aggregate we could convince ourselves that we had a chance. 0-3 is just too big a mountain to overcome. Those 2 late goals killed us. :54:

    "To be honest I suspect tonight is just about re establishing our reputation which took a bit of a battering after the 1st leg. As well as we played we got no real credit from anyone, least of of the Italian press and Juve's players and manager. A draw tonight would a be more than enough for me because that would restore a bit of pride, even if Juve do play a "weakened" team."

    I don't know about that. I feel like anybody who watched that game knew that Celtic controlled most of the action Juve was just fantastic in counter and took advantage of some mistakes.

    That being said, a good showing on the road would be nice even if it's in a losing effort.

    If we can manage a goal before half time and keep it tight at the back you just never know. 1-0 up with 45 to play could be epic!

    Forster

    Matthews Wilson Mulgrew Izaguirre

    Forrest Kayal Wanyama Samaras

    Hooper Stokes​

    That's the team I'd be playing tonight.

    Like others and I myself have said already, we may as well go for it. There is absolutely nothing to lose. I'll be disappointed if Lenny goes with 5-4-1 or anything similar tonight.

    I've put Kayal in the starting XI there, but some would prefer Ledley instead.

    If we do end up going down to them early then all I would ask for is for someone to * boot Pirlo and Lichsteiner off the park. That would satisfy me.

    It could be a good idea to set up defensive and hit them on the counter, its worked well for us. But i want us to just go for it.

    The fact that we controlled the bulk of the game - and the wrestling tactics at corners - seems to have been forgotten about (apart from Celtic fans).

    If ever a team had a right to state that the scoreline flattered the opposition then that game would be a perfect example.

    why worry about not going through to the next round -

    don't you all know that this years competition is tainted because Sevco aren't in it


    meanwhile in the real world -- just hoping for a decent performance on the night, we were very hard done by last time and i really want us to get an early goal for all our fans who have made the trip ............. i hope you have a great night and our team give you something to sing about
