    With Ciftci coming in and hopefully Mcgeady, I think we could be good be playing a 4-5-1 formation in Europe with Ciftci as the lone ST.

    Gordon
    Lustig Boyata Van Dijk Izzy
    McGeady Biton Brown Johansen GMS
    Ciftci

    What do you expect to be the lineup in Europe?

    Johansen pushed further forward and Forrest or Armstrong in instead of Mcgeady probably.

    What makes it a 4-5-1 rather than the 4-2-3-1 we play under Deila? McGeady, Johansen and GMS playing deeper?

    We'll play the same formation, with the slight variations, that we've played since Deila joined. Signings will fit into the system rather than the system adapting to accommodate the signings.

    Am seriously thinking we should limit the amount * threads during the off season, next it will be "what colour pants will Ronny be wearing when he strips when we win the treble this year" or "will the accounts show PL has built a new indoor pool complete with matching hot tub"

    4-2-3-1 always has been always will be with variations.

    No point speculating about players we have been linked with about 100 ffs since May

    For the qualifiers.

    Gordon
    Lustig Boyata Van Dijk Izaguirre
    Brown Bitton
    Mackay-Steven Johansen Armstrong
    Griffiths

    Not convinced that's strong enough to get us through. Depends who we get.

    Every time I look at our 'best' 11 and then the bench it is clear we need a proper number 9 and a back up keeper. Everywhere else most would be fairly happy with.

    Griffiths is good and will score goals but not good enough IMO. Fasan is * poor and we NEED a new keeper to replace Zaluska.

    What do people base their opinion of Fasan on? Just curious. Seen a few folk say he ain't all that.

    I've never seen the lad play.

    He had a bad game against Dukla but he plays well for the development squad. Just needs a few first team appearances under his belt

    I'm expecting/hoping for:

    Gordon
    Lustig Boyata NewCB Izaguirre
    Brown Bitton
    GMS Johansen McGeady
    Ciftci​

    Wouldn't be too surprised to see Lustig shifted to CB and Janko at RB
