    Actually think a weekend team will do is a favour tbh. Everytime they think they are the top dog they * it. They was top after new year, * it. Etc etc. If they go in favourites theyll * it again.

    Here we go 10 in a row!!!

    THIS....ALL DAY LONG. Last couple of games we've allowed them to dictate the tempo. Can't happen again. If it does were in for a long afternoon chasing. Get right in to them from the first whistle. Show our strength and quality and dominate.

    I can't see us going 3 at the back, with Jullien and Ajeti coming back from injury and Edouards fitness unknown (unless I've missed something).

    Might be worth doing 3 at the back anyway though cause the huns will probably be expecting a 4 2 3 1.

    I don’t think there’s any way we don’t go three at the back tbh. Assuming no more of our players come back with coronavirus, some of them will only get one day’s training before the game. We’ve been playing the 3-5-2 too long to revert back so quickly imo

    Ajeti and Turnbull to come on from the bench in the second half. This is the team I see Lenny putting out anyway

    Don't want to tempt fate until all our player's are back but I've still got a good feeling about the weekend..

    Had it for Hibs as well when we were playing rank rotten..

    We've got key player's out and a rampant orange * with his whistle but I honestly think we'll do them..

    Lot of talk about how good our bench has looked and the depth we have...and now we're seeing it..

    We'd rather have Eddy, Christie and Bitton available or from the start but it shows our improvement in depth that we can afford to miss these player's and still call om quality..

    This is the equivalent of them missing Morelos, Kent and Balogun or something. We'd be licking our lips to smash them..

    We have Ajeti likely to be back. Griff able. Klimala 2ho could really hurt them..

    Ntcham, Turnbull or Rogic who could come in for Christie..

    Bitton isn't even a guaranteed starter and Elhamed or Jullien could comfortably slot in..

    All the talk is of them just needing to turn up. The negativity and call offs should galvanise Lenny and the player's Saturday..

    I'm bang up for it..

    * right as well..

    Seen talk of people wanting this called off. No chance..

    Get it played and get them pumped with a 'weakened' side..

    Roll on..

    Aye it looks like it :giggle1:

    I don't even mind if we adopt a more cautious approach like that game and counter them even at home..

    They'll fancy it and countering them with Frimpong will be a key weapon for us i think..

    Would completely stump them as well..

    Better no * the bed Celtic. Match the aggression we win. Simple as.
    We have better players in every position. Just need to believe we can match their aggressive high tempo game and do what we do.....score * goals

    Like a few have said, we need to start this game at a high tempo and get in their faces. Their defence is * so pressurise them in their half and force mistakes. For those reasons I'd play 2 up front and not play Ntcham as he doesn't seem to be able to play at a high tempo and at times the game passes him by and it's like playing with 10 men. If we play 2 up front and don't play Ntcham I'll be confident but if we play 1 up front and play Ntcham I'll be worried.

    Their game plan is simple get barasic and Taviner as high up the pitch as possible to fire it into el donkey and have Hagi and Kent running of him that’s the game plan and the only game plan, they can’t get through the middle

    As long as we don’t lose anymore players to fitness/health issues/bolloxology then I’m still confident of winning this. Buzzing for it tbh just hope ajeti/edouard are available to start
