    Gordon Strachan - "Celtic are a better team than Ajax. The Ajax team will develop — I don’t think anybody’s had a shave in that team yet."

    :smiley-laughing002: Can always count on WGS for a cracking quote.

    3 of Forrest, Commons, Kayal and Stokes for they 3 positions. Commons will start if 100%. Kayal will start if Lennon wants to keep it tight for the first hour.

    I'm a massive Ledley fan, but there is no way in * he should start ahead of Kayal. Kayal was arguably our best player against Ajax, and definitely our best midfielder in my opinion, and I thought the same away at Partick. On top of the fact that Ledley is still looking for match sharpness.

    Just read that ajax have had their worst start to a season in half a century, they're definitely there for the taking.

    Pack the midfield and have Samaras as lone striker.

    No bothered about picking a team,I trust in Lennon and whoever does play and if we play anything like we have in the previous games there's every chance of winning this game.
    We deserved a victory in Milan,we're sure as * capable of beating this Ajax side.

    I can't understand people wanting Samaras to play upfront. He is one of our main threats when he plays left wing and is running at people. Leave Stokes, Pukki or Balde to play upfront.

    Stokes up front with commons and samaras supporting him. Forrest to come on with 20 mins to go if we are chasing a goal. That's how I'd do it.

    Yeah, same for me but would be tempted to play Forrest from the start and have Ledley on the bench.

    Only in cases of an emergency or injuries would I play Sammy upfront - especially by himself.

    Dutch pundits talking about Ajax beating Celtic otherwise they are not worthy of being in Europe is kind of disrespectful #nevereasytobeat

    ......................Forster
    Lustig.....Ambrose....Virgil......Izzy

    ..........Kayal.........Mulgrew

    Forrest.........Commons.......Sammy

    ..................Stokesy

    That would be my team, with Joe Ledley coming in for Mulgrew or Izaguirre if necessary, or even to replace Commons if we are ahead and looking to shut up shop. Look to hit Ajax on the fast break, but no need to concede too much possession to them - their confidence is clearly shot and they are on a very poor run of results - let's get at them and bully them a bit, not let them get too confident stroking the ball around in front of their own fans. Their defence is also pretty suspect so maximum pressure is the name of the game...
