SPFL Celtic V Ross County Saturday November 30th kick off 3PM Celtic TV

Would only make 2 or 3 changes. Don't want to be totally disjointed. Would rather try get it done for half time and rest second half

 

Hoping to get this won early, so we can freshen the squad for the sheep in midweek.

 

Celts Have Staggies in Their Sights

Torn here because some players definitely need a rest but we’ve seen a couple of times this season the dangers of making wholesale changes where the fringe players have really struggled.

Schmeichel
Ralston CCV Trusty Valle
McGregor
McCowan Bernardo
Kuhn Kyogo Forrest

If we’re winning and it’s comfortable then look to get CCV, Kuhn and Kyogo off early doors with Aberdeen on Wednesday in mind but need to make sure we do a job here first and foremost.

 

I personally would definitely ring the changes for this one, a very tough game in midweek with another tough midweek fixture to come, we talk about the strength in depth we have now if we can't trust players to come in and do the job at home to ross county they shouldn't be at celtic at all.

That's a bit ott but I'd like to see somewhat close to that

 

Everyone fit and ready for tomorrow


No injuries after midweek

 

Totally agree some of our worst performances were when we switched most of the team. Just a couple would do for me as well.

 

Mainly midfield. Engles needs a wee break mccowan and Bernardo should be starting. But defense and striker I'd no change. Maybe rest maeda. But too many changes leads to a messy performance.

 

Need a bit of rotation as Wednesday night was a tiring match.

 

Schmeichel
AJ CCV Trusty valle
Hatate McGregor Bernardo
Kuhn Idah Forrest

Need to rest a few players and Bernardo definitely deserves a start. Think Hatate needs to play to get some for going.

As soon as we're out of sight, bring off CCV for Scales, AJ for Ralston, McGregor or Hatate for McCowan and Kuhn for Yang.

We have the quality to come off the bench if we get into trouble.

Ross County haven't won an away game in the league, conceding 13 and scoring 1 in 6 away games. We should be winning this and winning it comfortably.

 

Keep the team for Wednesday and end up dropping points v ross county with that team, the 2 games we made big changes we were 2-1 down to Falkirk before bringing on the big guns and were pretty poor in a 2-0 win over Dundee, people say oh we should be able to beat ross county with that team, they haven’t really played together either, makes 3 or 4 bring in Valle, maybe mccowan and Bernardo but that would be it

 

So we won both games we made changes in? We haven't been perfect every game with our first 11 either and we will be less so if have the legs ran completely off them by Xmas imo. The more I think on it the only change I don't think I'd go for in the team I've chose there is Welsh in for trusty is a bit much. Especially since we are at home, would be less inclined if we were going up there to play them it's a different story

 

In fact, they last away league win was 24 games ago.

They're only away wins in that period of time was a playoff against Raith at the end of last season and Cup wins against non top flight teams. They've lost against Spartans in the cup in that period though.

We should be looking at a bloodbath. Huns skelped then 6-0 as I'm sure you'll all remember as Clement banged on about it for months afterwards.

 

A good winning performance. Resting a limited amount of players and a good opportunity to get more balance in the team for much tougher fixtures a head this season.

 

Time to use squad.

Make a few changes to start with, hopefully get comfortable for halftime, them make the subs for midweek

It be good to see 2 strikers at work in the one game and no one will expect it
