[Matchday] Bristol City v Celtic, Wednesday 14th @ 7:45 pm , Celtic TV, Pass to Paradise

Ange Postecoglou's 3rd friendly I'm charge of the team.

I think we will start to see his first choice 11 emerge in preparation for the Champions League qualifiers.

Discuss...

 

I think we will beat these bunch of *.

 

As the OP states this needs to be his team to play the qualifier next week, as it stands I'd go with the below
Barkas
Taylor, Welsh, Bitton, Montgomery
Soro, McGregor
Karamoko, Turnbull, Johnston
Ajeti

I know I have Taylor at RB but I can't think of any other options, don't trust Ralston or Osaze

 

Thought Ralston was decent today.

Osaze looked either unfit or just fazed. Can't see him getting first team football this year unless he improves a lot.

 

Won't be and no sign of O'Connor today but

O'Connor ...Welsh....hjelde Montgomery

Coin flip between soro and Shaw. Think will be horses for courses between the two of them both played well today

I'd rather play a back 3 than put Taylor at right back.

 

I really hope we at least have a new CB in for this, would be pleasantly surprised if we brought a fullback in too, but I doubt it.

As for the game, I'd go the same as for the qualifier.

Barkas
Ajer Welsh Hjede/new CB Taylor
Mcgregor Shaw
Turnbull
Karamoko Ajeti Johnston​

Even if we don't have a new CB in there is no way we can go in this qualifier with Ralston.

 

Barkas

Ralston/O'connor
Ajer
Hjede
Taylor

McGregor
Shaw
Turnbull

Dembele
Johnston

Hopefully see all the new signings get some minutes.

 

Are you going to risk Ajer ? Gutsy Move !!

 

I'd rather play with 10 men than Taylor being in the team

 

How did Moffat do against Charlton?

Edit - aaah, didn't play. Bummer.

 

Can't argue with that, I was just thinking Ange will go with the back 4. Forgot about O'Connor for RB, I'd put him there before Taylor

 

I think he came on as a sub but as the second half was poor he didn't have much of a chance

 

He came on late but despite that still changed things up for the better quite a bit, he is such a standout. He looks almost like a sure thing to start for me.

 

Out of the games so far I think Shaw has done best of the new guys and should be close to first team I think between him, Christie (if he’s not left by then) and Soro, if we play 4-4-2 or 4-2-3-1 but for last seasons contribution Soro is in ahead of them.

Barkas​

? RB Welsh Biton. Taylor
Soro McGregor
Dembele. Turnbull Johnston

Subs: Eduard, Ajer, Christie, Forest, Moffat, Helja Shaw, Montgomery, ​

 

With these *, there will be trouble at the match.

 

Fortunately I think it is at their training pitch

 

Your right. I think they have a billionaire owner who has ploughed big money into paying off club debts etc and now has built them a new training facility.
