    Like the look of this team ! I’d have Armstrong involved somewhere though, that’s the only change I’d make.

    Yeah wouldn’t be against Armstrong coming on tbh. Will just have to wait and see how the game pans out and see who’s needed at the time. :50:

    Starting Edouard in any capacity ahead of Griffiths would be unfair as *, IMO.

    Based on what but?

    I'm no a fan of Boyata or Jozo but that's not a reason to play Compper IMO. Played 90 mins, started poorly, bang average overall. Hasn't been seen since and BR made no apologies for it earlier this week.

    As for Jozo, no idea. Feels like I haven't seen him in an age.

    Jozo hasn't played since his sending off at Ibrox.

    Based on the number of errors boyata makes a game. He will be targeted as our weak link and he was horrific against them in the game at ibrox.

    That's my point. You've no basis for picking Compper other than you don't fancy Boyata.

    I wouldn't play Boyata either but there's little to suggest Compper is an improvement on him unfortunately

    You're right, can't justify picking Compper but I struggle to do the same for boyata with the evidence we have...

    Feel like this has fallen under the radar a bit.

    hope we go out and hammer these *. With guys like Roberts back who loves playing against these lot we should be getting a 3-0 win here.

    I have liked the growth we have seen from Edouard we have seen over the season but I totally agree zero chance he should start this game ahead of Griffiths.

    Better than * Boyata no matter how unfit he is atm :giggle1: He surely can’t be any worse at passing and he can’t be any sloppier on the ball.

    Would even go for Jozo but don’t know if he is available. Don’t think he was in the squad the last couple of games. Was probably left out completely against Hamilton because of the surface.

    ----------Gordon
    -----Hendry--Ajer--Jozo--KT
    Roberts--Broony--Ntcham--Sinclair
    ------------Rogic
    ----------Dembele

    More of a 3-5-1-1 with KT getting into advanced positions and overlapping with Sinclair like the glory days of last season. Griff on in the 70th minute to run them ragged for the last 20 min. Might be harsh not going with Forrest but he doesn't play well against the huns typically and hasn't exactly been in form the past several weeks.. and you just know that Paddy keeps them up at night.
