    I play Bangura up front alone too.

    We cant afford to lose Hooper for Ibrox or dont want him tired out either. Bangura would be well up for it making his first start in such a big game and has the pace and power to play up alone.

    I can't wait. I'm can't help but worry that we will get shown up against a side like Atletico but at the same time there is a chance we can go out there and get a result which will be great for our reputation after the humiliation of Sion. What do you think our chances are? Desperate to restore some pride.

    What do you think our crowd will be like with the delay because of the appeal?

    exactly, ki is soft, remember third goal against sion. celtic need a result they don't need to prove anything. motherwell had more corners the last day and kept the ball on the deck. wanyama did more than bangura in 5 minutes on the pitch, i wouldn't be getting carried away about bangura. i would tell brown and commons to mark their wingers in the first half. i would give kayal freedom to move forward to link up with hooper. i'm also a fan of playing 4-5-1 for 60 minutes then changing to 4-4-2, sometimes you can catch a team out when they think you are settling for a draw. i am looking forward to it regradless, as fans we need these nights, no matter how much the performance or tactics/team selection drive us demented!!:shamrock:

    I think we've gotta go with two up front. Stokes and Hooper should run rings around their defence and then when they've worn them out stick Bangurra up their with one of them and let him have a go at a slow knackered defence. Hopefully they will go with one up front like they did under Walter most the time because they offer nothing when they play that way. We struggle against them much more when they play 2 up front.

    I pray our captain is deemed unfit, because its the only way he will get dropped.

    If he starts his sole contribution will be a booking, mark my words.

    His ball retention, passing, discipline and game intelligence are not good enough for this level and he will be the weak link.

    cant see us taking away anything from the game madrid are a very good side but anything could happen. im hoping its 0-0 until the 89th minute then we score. if we did get a goal early they would come at us all guns blazing

    Your not the only one. Samaras must not be trusted.
