    Celtic vs Dundee United Saturday 13 August

    Maybe a wee bit early but oh well, I don't think we'll see many new faces in buy then at most one imo but there is still lots for Neil Lennon to ponder. Does he go for the straight swap with Mulgrew for Izaguirre or does he play Wilson in at left back or even Joe Ledley. Also with captain Scott Brown available he will almost certainly start so who will be dropped for him to come in, I personally expect us to see:

    24.Zaluska

    2.Matthews 5.Majstorovic 6.K.Wilson 12.M.Wilson

    8.Brown(c) 18.Ki 33.Kayal 15.Commons

    10.Stokes 88.Hooper

    Subs
    47.Cervi
    9.Samaras
    13.Maloney
    16.Ledley
    21.Mulgrew

    49.Forrest
    67.Wanyama

    Celtic 2-1 Dundee United Anthony Stokes and Kris Commons

    Personally I would go for Mulgrew at left back and Wilson at right back but after Matthews solid performance yesterday I don't think Lennon will drop him. I am a massive fan of Joe Ledley but tbh Ki has been much better than him so would be harsh to drop Ki. And I only put Zaluska in as we haven't signed a goalkeeper yet so if we sign Sandomierski or another goalkeeper he would come in for Zaluska.

    Same team as aberdeen, except Mulgrew in for Izzaguire, perhaps Brown in for ledley, and put Commons back to LM.

    Gona be a tough game but we should have enough plus our first game at CP.

    Matthews for Wilson, and Forrest for Commons if injuries are still niggling.

    depends if Lennon wants Zaluska in goals to help him in the Europa qualifiers, there may only be one option if Sandomierski doesn't come.

    if M. Wilson is back, he'll takeover Matthews place and he'll take Cha's place on the bench.

    i would prefer though...

    hope we can get a bit of luck from this game, as i feel we are not that strong as a team, the improvements will have to come from the middle of the park to give the forward loads of service, as it is needed if we are to sneak a goal. i have seen united, * goals from nothing, before we have woken up.

    Yeah i like ledley too but ki is the man for me at the moment, he has come onto a game and shown his maturity the last wee while.I think that ki will be sold in a few yrs and im sure ledley will step onto that position nicely. but its great that there is competition for places.

    I'd probably go with :celt_2::
    Zaluska
    M.Wilson Majstoroivc K.Wilson Mulgrew
    Brown Kayal Ledley Commons
    Hooper Stokes    ​

    But with Commons maybe not being 100% I'd maybe go something like:
    Zaluska
    M.Wilson Majstorovic K.Wilson Mulgrew
    Ki Kayal Ledley
    Maloney
    Hooper Stokes    ​

    But Lenny makes the decisions so I'm sure he'll pick the team best suited for United :50:

    Sorry mate but why would you rather drop Zaluska? What has he done wrong in the first two league games?:31:

    if we spend the rumoured asking price of £2m on Sandomierski, he won't be sitting on the bench, mate.
