    this system will suit us giving us more options and space to attack with teams less likely to put 4 defenders on 1 attacker ,maloney for more direct play and creation ,ki for getting goals from cut backs ,keane for pace fortune forcreation and hold up play.

    Surely if mowbray beleives could have provided width in the kilmarnock game then he is going to play him on one of the wings in future games, therefore I think the team should be:
    Zaluska
    Hinkel Loovens Hooiveld Braafheid

    Brown KI Nguemo Mcgeady

    Keane
    Rasmussen

    The Ras has to play as he is where our goals are going to come from, thats what he was brought here to do and I think keane would work well with that type of player.

    ................Boruc
    Hinkel Thompson Hooiveld Braafheid
    ....Maloney Brown Ki McGeady
    ..........Rasmussen Keane

    don't reall have the time to explain why but in short,
    Boruc has it in him to be no.1 in the world
    Hinkel is undoubtabley our best RB
    Thompson looks very good for an 18-year old and can only improve
    Hooiveld seemed solid yesterday before being subbed
    Braafheid because naylor is no good
    McGeady because he is world class when he puts his mind to it
    Ki because he looks a hot prospect
    Brown is just class imo
    Maloney because mccourt is never fit and caddis is more a RB
    Rasmussen seemed good
    Keane.. well... Keane is Keane

    A lot of you set McGeady on the bench. Why? Only because he is very very poor atm? If he's in top form, he's our most important player with robbie keane. Put him on the bench for one match and tell him he'll have to earn his place back. And see what happens. But thats a point for Mowbray.

    I think every Celtic manager would play 4-4-2 with attacking wingers. So in 4-4-2 my starting eleven would be:

    ---------------Boruc---------------
    -Hinkel-Thompson-Hooiveld-Braafheid
    -----------N'Guemo-Brown------
    -McGeady-----------------Kamara/Maloney
    --------Rasmussen--Keane--------

    GK: Boruc, i think Boruc is a great GK when he's in top form. Better than Zaluska. 2 Polish GK's, and Boruc is in the national team also number 1. It would be a bit strange if we say Zaluska is better than Boruc. But that's my opinion

    Defense: Thompson in, Loovens out. Thompson is ok till now. I want him in more often. Loovens is a horrible defender when he's under pressure. I hope Thompson prove us he isnt.

    Midfield: Powerfull central midfield with Brown and NGuemo. Ki is too lightwight and i'm not impressed with his skills. He would never be the new Nakamura. His corner kicks are awful, sometimes he kicks a nice one but the corner kicks of Kamara against Killie were much much better.

    Wingers: McGeady, in top form our most valuable player. Kamara or Maloney. Both have a good pace and can defeat their opponent.

    Strikers: Keane, best striker of the SPL. Rasmussen plays next to him. I think he would score a lot of goals. Fortune is not bad, but i think not good enough.

    total agree m8. but we've got to drop rolly polly goalie. hes not fit over weight and is a shawdow of the goal keeper we signed.

    and wrong option, cany cross, i baw mcGeady wid not make the bench of the reserve team either.

    maybe Kamara as an attackin midfielder, let Nguemo n crosas gt it out to the wingmen or with Ki through the middle. I'd have dropped McGeady in a minute but dont think there's anyone else. Maybe put Kamara on the left with someone else on the right??

    check previous posts of mine, i aint mcgeadys biggest fan in the slightest but dont see fortune as an out and out goal scorer and can he really create more than keane upfront? i only seen parts of Kamara n he looked sorta promisin. granted a few players need a kick up the * eg. Boruc, McGeady included, but when McGeady's decides to play, he can cause problems for the oppisition....just my own opinion!


    P.S incase u aint noticed, there's bout 8 ppl that's done the same, kept MccGeady n dropped fortune....;)

    We have such a strong squad oozing with talent but have no heart or leadership.. Compare to Huns,very average-pretty crap team but have the heart, desire and leadership to win games..

    If only this was our team earlier in the season and with a bit of heart we would have walked this league.. Would be brilliant if this was our team next season with a top class manager, league would be ours by december..:shamrock:

    Honestly Don't Know Now!

    Maybe in another month I could give you the answer- not now!

    To many options- is that maybe Tony's issue too????
