    'In the 2012–13 UEFA Champions League, he refereed the Manchester United - Galatasaray, after which he was highly criticized by the Turkish press for failing to detect two clear penalties for the Galatasaray side.'

    I'v heard of the guy but can't remember any game he's refereed specifically, does this * give everything to the bigger side?

    All this talk about a must win for ac... this is a must win for us in my opinion! We have a better time than any to take advantage of this ac milan team and take 3 points away from home!

    A draw would be acceptable but a defeat definetley not and that's me raising our standards here if we are serious about qualifying we will need to use this game to get 3 points on the board ! Big game coming up after this 4 points over the 2 would set us for a place in Europe after Christmas IMO maybe even last 16

    I think it's just 2 completely different footballing cultures and mentalities really.

    Losing away to one of the biggest clubs in the world with a budget 10x ours isn't acceptable? You talk about high standards but that's taking the *.

    I expect us to put up a decent fight but lose 2-0, no shame in that.

    A bit OTT. Circumstances have gave us a greater chance of getting a result but in no way is a defeat unacceptable, we can still be serious about qualifying no matter the result here.

    I think most people had this down as a probable defeat so anything we do get is a massive bonus.

    You should still have a team capable of beating us though we understand that you have all these superstars out but what you don't realis you have plenty more behind them

    Celtic are 6/1 to win.
    3/1 the draw. I fancy a draw.

    No it's not i agree that it won't matter to us who plays and who's out because it still ac it's still in milan and they still have quality players !

    I'm talking about my Confidence here it's really high so im putting us at a high standard there's no better time to beat this mob

    We really dont know how barca at home is goin to pan out we could get humiliated this year although the other night I seen nothing special or ch ages about them still haven't got a plan b!

    All I'm saying to qualify 1 point 2 won't be good enough for us to qualify in my opinion so taking a win from one is key and it has to be this one

    So you think Milan's 2nd/3rd string is still better than your 1st team?

    I think that's stretching it a bit

    Poli is a mystery atm, the club hasn't said anything about him as of yet. Some reports saying he's doubtful, others that he's definitely out. I think it's more out than in atm
