    I think Hartley deserves to keep his place, if need be, bring McGeady on.

    Hard to drop Hartley though. A very difficult one but shows how strong the squad is when the players are all on form. Dont think we can play brown, donati and hartley against the typical ultra-defensive set ups we face in the SPL.

    Wilson was very good in Rusia so he will keep his place maybe Naylor on the bench he's not playing well IMO.

    Come on the hoops.

    Totally agree. Wilson was outstanding in defense against Spartak. He is a really good player when he is fit and gets a decent run

    I dont think he was oustanding at all , he failed to pik up defenders coming in at the back post during free kicks etc and he left brown with two attackers for their goal. He lets to many crooses in and it was from his side they croos was amde against Falkirk for their goal IMO

    My Team for Saturday, it is only the Donz...

    Brown

    Naylor
    Bobo
    McManus/Kennedy
    Wilson

    Naka
    Brown
    Harley
    riordan

    Killen
    McDonald

    Give a rest to JVOH and we need a commanding centre to play alongside either McManus or Kennedy. Donati needs to get match fit and PIT-oddrie is not the place for being off the pace !

    I would be criminal if GS drops Hartley . It just wouldn't make sense at all

    I really never thought i would see the day . Its up to Hartley to keep doing it week in week out now . Its not Hearts hes at where you can turn it on every few weeks , its Celtic and you have to perform MOST weeks of course players have off days but MOST games you have to play well

    What I wonder is whether Hartley played well because of being played wide rather than in the middle. I wonder if at Celtic he is too scared to go forward on the sort of runs he did for Hearts because he feels responsible for defending the middle.

    hopefully hartley has gained the confidence to play as the driving midfielder we think he can be.

    Hardly an issue if Donati is there tho is it?
    We won't often being played teams with quality of Spartak

    We cant drop Brown to accomodate Hartley though. I swear Brown could be world class if he continues developing this way and worth every penny.

    It's difficult to know who to drop from midfield, because I think McGeady has to play, he's suited to these away games lacking in creativity and we need him as an attacking force. I'd want to see Donati get a continued run in the team to improve his fitness, and get settled to the scottish game so we can see the best of him, and Hartley deserves to play for his steadily improving performances and the most vital goal we've scored since naka put in the free kick that won us the league. I'd probably not play Donati.
