St Mirren vs Celtic Match Thread

I simply cannot fathom that people want to drop Robbie Keane or send him back to Tottenham. The Scottish Cup is still up for grabs and Keano is our biggest goal threat by far so he has to be in the team. If we get knocked out of the Cup then perhaps that would be the time to start focusing on the players who will be here next season.

4-0 to the celtic , keane to get 2 , mcgowan gets 1 and o dea the other

 

I would keep McGowan on the bench and bring him on if needed. Granted he played well at the weekend but Sheridan also had good home performances. Away games are a different matter. Ras, Fortune and Keano for me.

 

i cant even contemplate this

 

Seems like that and i dont understand why,3 months ago we were all jumping the height of ourselves that weve signed him,be it on loan and now we're wanting him to leave,some fans are so fickle its unbelievable,why on earth would you want to get rid of someone of keanes quality,if he was to go who would get the goals? if it wasnt for him we would have struggled badly the last 6 or 7 games.
I for one hope he stays for the rest of his loan and keeps banging the goals in.

Anyway,for the game on wednesday id go with

Zaluska

Hinkel
Loovens
Thompson
Braafheid

McGeady
Crosas
NGuemo
Samaras

Rasmussen
Keane

Subs:
Boruc
Wilson
O'Dea
McCourt
Fortune
McGowan
McGinn

9 goals in 9 games is not a burden he is a class act .

 

im sorry but i thought the game on saturday was a bit boring it might be me but not offensive enough for me boruc
hinkel thompson odea braafhied
mcgeady crosas nguemo mccourt
keane rasmussen

 

can someone enlighten me to why keane is suddenly being dropped and slated? he is the best striker we have had since larsson and he has scored 9 goals in 9 games and sets goals up, whats wrong with him?

plus anyone know if mccourts fit?

 

If we beat St Mirren that would be 4 in a row! Feckin *!
And if we keep anoither claen sheet- 4 of them in a row too- Double Feckin *.
Get Robbie playing- he is a joy to watch!!!!

 

Bellamy was far better for us in my opinion!

 

he back in training ,i think he would be perfect in the hole behind keane

 

How about this for a formation -

boruc

hinkel thompson rogne o'dea braaheid

n'guemo Ki

Mgeady Kamara or McCourt

Keano



I know tony mowbray plays with four man defence but I would go with an extra centre half Martin oneill done this I dont know why nobody has said this before now

Keano will bang em in up front

 

ps is the game live on tv?

 

yeh so do i, just what we need i reckon

 

he was good, but i much prefer keano, his is a much smarter footballer, bellamys greedier and his temper winds me up

 

I think it's on ESPN. You might want to double check that though.

 

Like the idea. Both our full backs like to bomb it up the wing so their defensive duties would not be as much as long as our CM's cover our defenders. Think it could work and is worth a try, although I do think Crosas should start.

 

I'd play

Boruc
Hinkel Thompson O'dea
McGeady N'Guemo Crosas
Keane Fortune
​

Cause St Mirren cant * play against 9 men!!!!
​

Boruc
Hinkel Thompson Rogne (if fit) Braafheid
N'Guemo Ki
McGeady McCourt (if fit) Brown
Keane ​

 

McGowan's performance on Saturday makes it hard to drop him.
Somebody made a good point about away games being a different matter, but he has to learn sometime.
A lot of people saying 'the league is over' etc - so now is as good a time as any.

See no need to change the keeper, the back four or the two CM's. Keane has to start, and McGowan should be given another chance in the hole.

Maybe McGeady or Fortune could be dropped, but I would start with the same side as the front four is pretty flexible.
