Celtic Vs Hibs - Pre-Match Thread

On tv?

 

Forster

Cha Majstorovic Rogne Ledley


Juarez Brown Kayal Samaras

Hooper Stokes


Strongest team possible to put out we need to play stokes and hooper upfront together there both natural goalscorers

 

i think samaras will start after the caley thistle game and hope we play both juarez and kayal and not leaving one out id like to see a full strengh celtic today going for it big time as hibs are not the easiest team in this league and it could very well go wrong if were not up for it 3-0 to the hoops hopefully and heres hoping the fusty buns drop points .

 

just about to set off for the match hope its a cracker and we score for fun............

 

Apart from defence, the first names on the teamsheet should be Maloney and Samaras. Given that Brown is fit I suspect he might be the 3rd name.

I reckon that leaves space for Stokes on the right, Hooper up top and Juarez at CM...

.........................Hooper.......................
.........................................................
Samaras..............Maloney.........Stokes....
..........................................................
..............Brown...........Juarez................
..........................................................
Ledley??...Maj............Loovens.......Cha.....

If Cha can get forward anything like he has been doing and like Wilson versus Ness, then obviously this means Stokes will be playing more centrally allowing Cha to go wide but on paper (and when defending) he's really on the right.

I also wonder if Murphy will get the nod ahead of Hooper, I wish Ki could get in instead of Brown and if Rogne is 100% I'd like to see him instead of Glennda.

 

anyone else think wilson may start at left back

 

forster
cha mastrojvic loovens izaguerre (is he fit)

ledley kayal
juarez samaras

murphy stokes

think he'll rest maloney today...

anyway 3-0, samaras double...mon the hoops

 

Forster
Cha Majstorovic Hooiveld Ledley
Kayal
Forrest Brown Juarez Maloney
Hooper/Stokes/Sammy​

 

not a chance

 

why izaguirre's out so its him or mulgrew

 

Ledley shouldn't play left back. No way.

 

ledley is a cracking player but i dont think he is half as good at left back so i agree with u there .

 

Isn't that what he done the other night? No way he will rest Maloney today, it's always a tough game against hibs. I don't thnk Hooper will start, think he'll be on the bench to start with.

 

Yeah if he wanted to rest Maloney he wouldn't have taken him on as a sub on Wednesday. He's fully fit, we have an empty calender (international break coming up and Maloney isn't taking part) so really there's no pressure on overworking wee Shaun.

 

Maloney will start 100% it was only a few days ago that hooper got took off with cramp so maybe hes not ready for another 90 mins yet .

 

any news on the team?

 

still 3 hours til kick off no chance

 

aye think he'll shove juarez to left back then and play maloney on the wing with izaguerre out...

 

juarez won't play left back

 

good point
