[Official TC Thread] Hibs v Celtic Sunday December 10th 12:30 Sky Sports Football

I'd rest Dembele and start Edouard or Griffiths, due to last night.

Defensively, I'd keep the same back four but I wouldn't be against starting one of Gamboa or Ajer, in place of Lustig or Simunovic.

In midfield we need Brown's leadership and Ntcham has to start beside him after last night.

Sinclair needs a rest but he'll start. Forrest or Hayes on the right, with Rogic in the middle.

 

Gordon
Lustig Ajer Boyata Tierney
Broony Eboue
Forrest Ntcham McGregor
Edouard
​

0-4.

 

Lack of loyalty to Griff bemuses me. How many goals has he scored and your wanting to risk unsettling him by playing a guy who got a hattrick against Motherwell.

 

I'd go with...............

Gordon

Lustig------Jozo------Boyata------Tierney

\O/------Eboue

Rogic

Forrest---------Edouard----------Hayes

​

Can't believe I'm advocating dropping Scott Sinclair, he's one of my two favourite players. Kinda says it all about where his form is.

 

* I started a new thread because I couldn’t * find this

Anyway, I want this:

Gordon

Bitton Jozo Ajer

Forrest Ntcham Brown Tierney

Griffiths

Edouard Dembele​

 

I quite like the look of that. If that front three were to click, * help the Hibernian defence.

 

Good shout with that team.

 

Isn't the idea to play your in form players? Eduoard is Griffiths isn't

 

I believe this is the first time we've been to Easter Road in nearly four years?

Looking forward to it.

 

Yes.


Unless you want to count Celtics women's team playing at ER.

 

Gordon
Ajer Jozo Boyata
Forrest Brown Eboue Tierney
Ntcham
Griff Edouard​

 

That would certainly make for an interesting game!

 

Hate this pish when we play hibs people saying they wouldnt begrudge them stopping the run, i hope we hit the * for 6.

Bitton and griffiths deserve to come back in hayes in for sinclair and armstrong nowhere near the squad and ill be quite content, like the look of a couple of these plain 3-5-2 formations, rodgers says griff and dembele cant play together but yet wont try another combination..

 

When did he say they can’t play together?

 

Yes. Have seen some of this weirdness on Twitter as well. Hoping the unbeaten runs stop at 67 as a tribute to the Lions and for Lenny to be the man who ends it.

*?

It's the sort of stuff you'd imagine an EPL * to come out with.

 

Pretty sure hes said something along those lines maybe not just in so many words, clearly he does not fancy them together having done it a only handful of times in a year and a half or do you think otherwise?

 

Hope we pump them get that last result out of the system drop Sinclair and Armstrong and start Dembele cos he was great in the semi against them coming off the bench.

 

Precisely pal
