    I agree, Benfica are a notch down from those sides so we shouldnt go ultra defensive. A worse Celtic team than this one beat a better Benfica team than this one 3-0 a year ago so we really should do it. I think chesney is getting pretty good tactically in the CL and learning all the time. It all hinges on our defence being up to the job of defending when we are commited to attack and they wont have loads of midfield cover. I think a really athletic performance like we had against Spartak is needed. Continental teams find it very hard to cope with us athletically in terms of stamina if we play at a huge tempo (I dont mean long ball though).

    I think 3-0 (just like last year) with McDonald scoring two and McGeady getting the other.

    Belfast has loads of pubs to watch Celtic games The Felons on the andytown round is pure class.Unfortunately thebhoymalone is in big ians back yard.Last year I was in Ballymena and wanted to watch a race that I had an interest in first pub had cricket on ffs who enjoys that * anyway took me half an hour to find a pub with the racing on . The bible belt of the six counties is how this region is known or * hole to the ones in the know.

    Check www.stv.tv/live if you cant get the match on the tv.No need to download any programmes so as long as the internet connection is half decent you should be elected.
