    No question having Maeda fit for the zombie game at Celtic Park would be massive. To say he has a Tavernier's number would be an understatement.

    He's fit just a question of match sharpness. I would think Palma will start tomorrow and maybe get an hour or so.

    His importance may now dawn on some people.

    I would think he will start tomorrow and hopefully get in a good hour or so. That should help with his match sharpness a lot.

    Don't see it, but would like to see Vata giving more mins out on the left wing, even as I saw on here Kyogo on the left Idah up top , still got Oh there as cover

    Can’t see how we will miss him remember how honking he’s been for the most part. Palma will definitely help us out up top with his goals and assists.

    He didn't cost us last time we played them at Celtic Park.

    How did you work that one out? The guy that’s literally got more than twice the goals contributions in less time and tracks backs plenty aswell. Also won’t give away cheap fouls all the time and got a much better cross on him and shot.

    Loads of teams have bad injuries these days. It's a mixture of the intensity of the game in general increasing, plus the football calendar constantly jam packed. It's not unique to us.

    Maeda has his faults, no doubt, but he is integral down that left hand side.

    Taylor is much better at left back with Maeda helping him.

    Maeda is a nightmare for the opposition. He is absolutely relentless in the press and has the pace to get in behind you. Yes, his final ball is usually a lottery but on Sunday he showed what he is capable of.

    As long as he is match fit for the Huns game that’s all that matters, although I suspect the SFA will see that and arrange our game with them ASAP after the split.

    All we needed was an injury to Maeda.

    Wouldn't mind seeing that atleast againt St mirren. Idah will definitely hold the ball up for Kyogo

    Even the Celtic fans who don’t rate Daizen will surely admit this is big blow for us. The Huns can’t handle his dynamism, they will be very relieved to see he is not in the team come the next Glasgow Derby. Praying the wee man can overcome the injury but if it’s a tendon injury there’s nothing he can do about. Only time can heal something like that and unfortunately with only six games remaining it something we don’t have.
