Elfsborg vs Celtic,Wed 7th August'13 KO 6.45pm (BBC Scotland)

Apparently both sammy and Derky may not be fit for the match

 

Hope to * the two of them are fit or well find it a lot harder
Well need some speed to get a fetal goals I think

 

I hope Sammy is fit as his pace scares the * out of them .
Leave Ambrose in Glasgow please Lenny .

 

lenny will pretend they're not fit till the day of the game

 

atleast one of them must be fit for the game

 

Really hope Sammy and Derks aren't serious and will be fine for Wednesday.

 

I have a feeling Mulgrew will play midfield

 

My main concern for this one is the possibility of them having set out their stall to play ultra defensively at CP in order to keep the score down, then bring out the big guns at home and really attack. We'll need to be prepared for a more adventurous display from them, and I'm still not 100% confident about our defence. The only reason we were relatively untroubled in the first leg was that we attacked so much, Elfsborg had very little opportunity to test our defence. Hopefully we can really start on the front foot and, if not take an early lead, at least let them know from the start that they won't be getting too many chances to get themselves back into this tie.

 

Really nervous about this game. Could shape a huge part of our season.

 

I get sad when he plays there,not as effective at all.Really hope Samaras is fit.

 

I honestly think you'll see Mulgrew take up Wanyama's defensive midfield role. Something like:

Forster

Lustig Wilson Ambrose Izzy

Mulgrew

Ledley Kayal Brown

Sammy​

 

If Sammy is out we are in big big trouble.

 

Where was it reported that Sammy is out?

Laura Brannigan on Celtic TV yesterday said he took a minor knock in the last match but that it was nothing serious and he should be grand.

 

Will win it easily not worried at all.

 

Hope Boeriggter's fit enough to make an appearance but doubt it.

Forster

Lustig
Wilson
Ambrose

Brown
Ledley
Mulgrew

Samaras

Stokes

Expect a close match. 1-1

 

Hope the players doesnt think that way If so, our european journey will end next week. Gonna be a great trip to Borås on wednesday !

 

If we lose next week, we go to the EL play-off round (but CL is obviously the competition that matters most).

 

Didn't Ambrose leave his passport behind last season? anyone fancy going into his bag and taking it out at Glasgow airport

 

So is Samaras injured and likely to miss the match or is it just internet rumour?

 

No, the balls gonna hit the right part of that 50 pence shaped head of his and go in. Mark my words!
