Celtic v Helsingborgs. 2nd Leg. 29/8/12 K.O 19.45

Following on from what Slaw said, any Malmo fans are more than welcome on here

 

Feeling a 2-1 scoreline. Samaras and watt(sub). Can't wait!

 

Not as confident that we will win the game as a lot of people on here.Can see this mob creating quite a few chances again.They could have scored quite a few the other night with a bit of luck.Think the 1st goal will be crucial,If we concede first it could be a long night....anyway 2-2 on the night...celtic go through 4-2 on aggregate

 

Hopefully watt starts he deserves to.

Tough team selection, Commons and Sammy can be interchangeable there and tough to leave Watt out after yesterday, but I think we need a bit more experience for this one. If Commons isn't fit though Watt can come in for him. Need to keep it tight, hopefully nick a goal but 0-0 would suit me just fine. I'll say 3-0 to the Bhoys though. Commons, Hooper, Samaras.

 

Definate solid 442 for this one,big Vic back more than makes up for Kayal missing this game. A bit of composure at the back will be nice,there will be goals here and obviously Celtic will dominate with another early goal to win it 3-1..(Watt,Hooper,Samaras)

 

That's what I expect to see on wedensday
All the talk of watt in my opinion is a bit premature
Aswell as he played Lenny needs to keep the boys feet on the ground so he should go to the bench and if we go 1/2 up with 30 to go or hooper tires then give him a go

 

Think it's too early to throw wee Watt in just yet, especially in a game of this magnitude. If we go out and put the game to bed early enough, which i'm pretty confident we will, and the tie is finished then bring him on. But definitely start with our strongest team possible, take no chances and go for the throat from the off.

 

I would bring in Forrest with Commons and play them out in the wide spots with Samaras and Hooper up front. I would keep Tony Watt in reserve if we either need him up front or if the tie is beyond Helsingborg at some point then we can bring him on. But as much as I love what I see from this young lad you have to be careful not to expect too much and put too much pressure on a young lads shoulders like Watt. We have a 2-0 lead so we can afford to be prudent in how we gradually bring him into the first team.

 

sums it up for me. i don't want complacency creeping in and i have no doubt that we'll see Watt at some point during the night.

You'd play Mulgrew at LB, so that Izzy can play LM, then put Samaras at CM?

You have the line up almost right but if I was sneaking anyone into CM I'd have Mulgrew there and keep Samaras/Izzy as our left wing combo.

 

if Samaras starts centre mid, why haven't you got Forster playing in the hole behind Hooper?

 

Would like to see both Forrest and Watt play. I would rather see us take the offensive than try to defend our lead.

 

Agree. We tried to play defensive in the first half of the last leg and it was horrific. When we began going forward they were rubbish, couldn't defend.

 

Rather than who? Hooper, Commons, Samaras?
