SPFL Celtic V The Huns Thursday January 2nd kick off 3PM Sky Sports football

Get them pumped.

They got way too big for their station in December.
Last two games have been a festive wake-up for them.
But they are still within their nightmare, so let's give them a little more fright.

Pump them, leave them with no uncertainty that their season is finished.

Dead rubber of a second half for them and no point sacking Clement or signing new players.

We've hit 5 against them a couple of times under brendan, I want to uo it this time, they're defence is brutal, midfield that cannot get near ours. I want 6 or 7 this time and I don't think its beyond possibility

 

Schmeichel
Johnston CCV Scales Taylor
McGregor
Bernardo Hatate
Kuhn Kyogo Maeda

Hard to choose between Hatate and Engels, Bernardo has to play as he defends really well and is a bully and big game player and consistent. Hatate though seems to bring class and calmness to derbies and watzes about on the ball with composure and kind of slows things and allows us to dominate footballing wise. Engels though played well the last two games and his corners/set pieces are really dangerous, maybe more of a goal threat an a better final ball than Hatate also. You feel either one could put on a MOTM performance, difficult to pick but i'd probably go for Hatate as he is a kind of proven player at helping us dominate these games.

 

id like us to go for the jugular ,i suspect we wont and will just soak up the pressure like we normally do. we are always too cautious and show these useless tramps way too much respect

 

Got to disagree on Scales, think he's been immense this season. Can't remember the last time he made a mistake.

 

I can think of a couple but pretty difficult to think of anyone who makes absolutely none, ever!

He's still well in the running for player of the season for me at the moment, although Kuhn is maybe in top spot the now.

 

Yeah, after posting that I remembered him getting caught under the ball against Aberdeen. Was a mistake, but wasn't a howler. Think CCV has actually made more mistakes this season though.

 

I reckon we'll hand out an absolute thumping. Not just because we're far better and it would reflect form, but because - on some level - the players probably want rid of that baldy * by now. They're only going to be further humiliated with him and his bizarre team selections and I wouldn't be shocked to see them offer us little resistance.

 

What a good headache to have though mate. We've threats all over the park. Different options to nullify anything they throw at us.

 

On Scales, it's not about the mistake count it's about who is fundamentally the better defender.
For me it's Trusty.
Assuming he is fully fit and looking sharp in training, he should start.

Despite Engels good showing against weaker opposition I have to agree with majority on midfield three - Hattate, Calmac, Bernardo

But it's fantastic to have these options, squad depth has improved dramatically.

 

I agree and Trusty has been dropped or rested the last few games for a reason so no point in throwing him in for this one.

Cup final we failed to get a grip of the MF. I can't see Rodgers allowing this to happen again. Get to grips with this quickly, play our game, our style our tempo we'll win comfortably.

 

Who's the officials for this? Who do we reckon the SFA sre gonna put in to try and help the huns?

Ref: Walsh

VAR: Dallas or beathun

 

Are the club missing a revenue opportunity by not opening part of the ground to show this?

 

That’s a great idea

 

Probably why CalMac got rested yesterday. Keep him.fresh to boss them on Thurs.

 

Will be 3 1 to us Thursday. Play our own game. Pass and possession move it quick and accurate and they will be done

 

I’d play the youth team and give the boys a bit of a winter break over new year.

This is essentially a dead rubber. 14 points clear is wild.
