    Would be interesting; I think both players are clever enough to be able to do it and Hooper is clever enough to play off of it.

    We really need to step it up in the SPL. We weren't shockingly bad at Hibs just looked a bit jaded. This winter break really has came at the perfect time for us. Especially with the juventus tie just around the corner now

    I agree. Could be spectacular if it works. Good call.

    Why would you want McCourt starting? Now that its been established that him being Messi esque is a myth, he's now being called a creative midfielder that can pick a pass from anywhere! He can't. End of. McCourt has got to be the most overrated player in the history of Celtic.

    Because he is our only creative player we have available at the moment; he can pick a good pass; he can beat a man; he can create. Which is more than you can say for any of our team that are not currently on the injury bench at the minute.

    He must start.

    :rolleyes: Give over. Some of us still like seeing McCourt play, and speaking as someone who will be attending the game, I hope he does.

    Please, no. Not another McCourt debate. He must be the most polarising player in recent Celtic history and those debates simply part the forum into pro- and anti-McCourt factions and a lot of needlessly personalised arguing - not debating - ensues.

    Those who don't like McCourt will never like him and those who do like him will defend him to the hilt. It's monotonous.

    I literally don't get that about him by the way; I don't think (when everyone is fit) he's a starter but when we are struggling for creativity with our most creative players out at the moment? It's ludicrous to not fit his talent into the team; his weaknesses are easily ignored in the right formation.

    I am a big fan of McCourt and most of us would acknowledge he was one of a few Celtic players to have a good match yesterday but introducing his name into any discussion on here will rapidly cause any thread to degenerate into tedious to-and-froing between pro- and anti-McCourt groupings.

    I think we should be making as much use of McCourt as possible because I think he is a skilled playmaker. Others disagree, and enjoy making their antipathy for McCourt known.

    Any news on injuries? I never heard how long Forrest and Mulgrew will be out for, anyone know if they'll be back for this? We missed them badly against Hibs.

    McCourt doesn't create anything though! He continuously loses the ball and 90% of Celtic park blame everyone but McCourt.

    Majstorovic was more * creative than McCourt.

    And this is when you get stuck on ignore because that just proves you know * all about football and are not worth the time.

    What about Ledley? Hope he'll return to action soon.
