    Formation/line up for the old firm

    Just a wee thread, I know its a bit early but im excited already! Whats everyones thoughts on the formation and our line up for the hun game?

    I think we will see a 4-1-4-1 with:

    Boruc

    Hinkel Caldwell McManus Naylor

    Hartley

    Naka Brown Crosas McGeady

    Skippy

    Think Naka or Mcgeady will play as a back up to skippy. I think we should go for it personally. Whats the chat with Maloney, he going to be available?

    soz, didnt see that thread. my bad. I think thats what we will go for, I think we should defo go 4-4-2 and take it to them, but I can see us going for a more defensive formation mate

    dont think skippy has the legs or that kinda player to play by himself. he will work hard without a doubt, but he needs a partner. has to be jan

    Think this is going to be a really tight game, just hoping a wee bit of magic will be the difference. again! Im a bit worried though, that Strachan is going to play quite a defensive team, maybe a 4-1-4-1 with mcgeady linking up with Skippy up front. I really hope we go for it though. Think we need to prove a point and this is the perfect game to do it in. Whats the deal with Maloney, is he match fit?

    Cant wait!!Havent been to a game against them since Juninhos debut when Thommo scored one of the best OF goals ever so really looking forward to it.Crosas has to start with Broony imo and bring Sammy on in the 2nd half to really run the legs of the pensioner..smashing player when he comes off the bench for us..can really make an imact imo.il say 1-0.JVoH

    theres really no excuse for not attacking now, most of our players are back, hope we dont sit and defend like last time.

    We need mental strength for this one. A good gear up is essential.

    right ok we need to play better and get really into them so...

    Boruc
    Hinkel, Caldwell, McManus, O'Dea
    Naka, Robson, Brown, McGeady
    McDonald, Big Jan

    Dont think Crosas will play because Ferguson and Mendes will want to play rough so Robson and Broony will take them.
    Big Jan has to play to roughen up Weir then Sammy coming on later and outplaying him.
