    Think it benefits us today to get Shin a run out from the start and see what he can do with a decent amount of service instead of coming on for the last 10-15, try and build some link up with others in a proper game, we already know what Maeda gives us through the middle and what Idah does, or doesn't.

    Really happy with that lineup personally..

    Gives a freshness to the side and a genuine chance for quite a few to actually start midweek..

    Nothing surer than Inamura looking unreal today :56:surely he’s more natural at left back than Scales … still find leaving him out the qualifier strange

    If we pick up an injury or drop points though, then it completely negates any potential positives. I think its a huge risk to be fielding this XI in a league game. Almost like Brendan his happy to fling a few points away.

    100% agree with the rotation - we had to after that pish midweek, making the return biggest game if season.

    We can afford to lose this game, we can't afford to lose UCL qualifier.

    Should still be more than enough for Livongston at home tbh.

    Need everyone 100% for Kairat away.

    Mind Delia made that many changes when we played Inverness cause we had Maribor in a qualifier , lost to Inverness then pumped oot the champions league after drawing 1-1 with Maribor at home

    Gonna be a riddy this, inamura won't see the light of day after today even though that back four is all over the place.

    Very interested in seeing how this pans out though

    Glad this is home and not away on their carpet burner dump.

    Starting places for a chance at CL qualification at stake.

    Lets pump them.

    If we drop points today, I'll be happy when Rodgers leaves next summer

    He's putting his pride, ego/dig at the board at a cost to us, saying that I hope hump Livi and Inamura gets a hat trick from Left back

    That defence. The front 3. 100m in the bank. Easiest qualifier for CL in years. Yet look at that 11.
