[Matchday] Celtic v FC Midtjylland Tuesday 20th July 7:45 Premier sports

Barkas

O'connor
Welsh
Bitton
Taylor

Turnbull
Soro
McGregor

Forest
Eduard
Abada (if eventually included)

 

O'Connor isn't in the squad and Forrest is definitely out.

 

Ffs. Ralston it is then

 

No doubt Christie will come in on one of the wing's for Forrest. Abada will likely go left and Christie right..

We really don't have option's for this..

 

We are going to be done by their height advantage. Their strong points are set pieces/crosses and, sorry to say, that's our main weakness so, I fear the worst.

 

Agree with that I honestly don't know much about them but I do know they will be strong were we are weak

If Ajer isn't available then O'Connor at RB, Ralston isn't an option.

If there are no natural wingers available besides Abada then play Eddy off the left with Ajeti as the main striker. If Karamoko is fit I'd play him at RW, Abada at LW with Eddy up top.

That team is still good enough to get a result tomorrow imo, so as harsh as it seems I will still be critical of Ange should we not get a good result even though he is just in the door.

 

Would happily take a nil draw just now, I think with our system we could do some damage away from home on the counter, won't hold my breath though

 

I can't remember a time following Celtic when the vast majority of us were so resigned to loosing a qualifying game. Sad state of affairs but totally expected due to the mess created by an incompetent board.

 

Sadly your not wrong at all with how weak we are on paper going into tomorrow especially at the back.

 

Wish I could disagree but your 100% spot on. We have zero chance of making it through. I just laughed this morning when I saw the draw for the next round on the Celtic web site.

 

I love your optimism and I would be beyond over the moon if your right. But for me I would be surprised if we don't lose both legs of this tie.

 

It is not a case of * ourselves. It is just the reality that right now we are a shambles and so far off the pace that our chances in this tie are slim to none. If Midtylland cannot do the backline we will be putting out over these 2 legs then they have regressed enormously from where they were last season when they had a very solid European run. Remember they made the group stages of the Champions League last season.

 

I am the same in terms of the Champions League written that off already as we have no chance with this team especially with who will be playing at the back it seems.

 

It felt weird clicking a like on your post given how gloomy it is, but your 100% right. I off the top of my head cannot remember the last time I was so down on where we were as a team. The lack of quality that will be starting for us tomorrow is frightening.

 

Ange said he’s available in his presser.

 

Going by the presser from Ange today and who’s available then…

Barkas
Ralston Welsh Bitton Taylor
Soro
Turnbull McGregor
??? Edouard ???​

* knows how fit the likes of Forrest, Christie and Dembele will be.

Abada not being registered maybe means we think we could have a couple of first teamers signed by the time the second leg comes around.

 

Urhoghide instead of Ralston please, not his preferred position but I’d rather Bain at RB than Ralston…

 

Don't they have to be registered before the first leg to be eligible to play the second leg?
