    I know we cant really afford to rest Broony either, still a worry as an injury is easily picked up. Think Allan will definitely feature and possibly might even start.

    Stokes or Scepovic please...........Griffiths run doesn't stop if rested for 1 game and FAR too big a risk to play up there when we REALLY need him for far greater game on Tuesday.

    I think it's a bit risky to play Griffiths even though I was advocating the whole first team get a practise game against Utd (no disrespect) but Griff is irrreplaceable so just this one game I'd rest him. If we qualify for the UCL then he can play every game we've got as there won't be another game as important as this

    Not sure about that, when you're in this sorta form you want to be playing every game. I get the logic but I think it's a risk either way.

    Id go along with that except maybe Rogic ahead of Forrest. Last thing we need is Forrest to get injured.

    I would rest quite a lot for this ahead of the second leg. Would bring on Rogic at some point

    Noticed when Bitton was down last night, Forrest giving his hammy a good stretch again, it's always K-taped to the max too. Always gives the impression it's gonna pop at any moment. Must play on his mind something awful.

    Forrest was stretching at every opportunity last night from about 20 minutes in, was shocked he lasted the 90.

    I'd even be tempted to start Scepovic...

    Priority for this game is to keep the players fit.

    Don't play anyone that's going to play on Tuesday. We'll make up the points if we have to.

    Expect something like this. Forrest, Armstrong and Bitton will no doubt be rested, Bitton on for last 30 mins depending on the score.

    We need to rest a few key players for this game. Can't risk any injuries or even slight knocks this game on Tuesday is so important.

    Gordon

    Janko Boyata Virgil Tierney

    Mulgrew Brown

    GMS Allan Commons

    Scepovic/Stokes    ​

    Bring Broony off around the hour mark again for Rogic and hate to say it but bring Ambrose on for Virgil or Boyata if we have a comfortable lead of at least 2 goals. Really can't risk any players getting too tired come the end of the game on Tuesday so key players like Broony & Virgil need to be taken off.
