UCL Last 16: Celtic v Juventus Chat

when exactly wast this?

 

Need to avoid conceding early. What time are people heading to the stadium for?

 

Oh my * * i'm so exited its unreal, nerves are kicking in !

 

Police are urging people to head to the game early because of road closures. I'll be there about half 6.

 

Is Gershon elligible for this ? could be an option at left back considering our limited options.

 

I was thinking this but then who do you leave out the midfield? Brown, Wanyama, Ledley, Commons, Forrest all HAVE to play. I would be happy to see Kayal in as well, as I think he will/can get back to his best in this tie.

The only certain position is Forster. Literally everything and everyone else is up for grabs, I have no idea what the * Lenny is going to do.

Forrest and Sammy on the bench would be a risky, but maybe very clever decision I think. Last 20 mins bring them on with pace, directness and trickery to get us a goal or 6!

MON THE HOOPS!!!!!!

 

Is it just London Rd that's going to be * ?

 

I actually think that Commons and Forrest will start the match on the bench. I think Neil would like someone a bit more experienced than Forrest on the starting 11 and the fact that Commons started the game against ICT makes me think that he will not start tonight.

I expect a midfield of: Brown, Wanyama, Ledley, Mulgrew and Big Sammy. Hooper up top on his own and a back four of: Lustig, Wilson, Ambrose, Izzy (in case Izzy is not fit enough Matthews would take his place and in case Efe is not fit enough Lustig would play as a central defender and Matthews would play rb).

 

Buffon on Celtic: "They have fiery fans, but the fans can't score goals.

Whats the verdict on Big Sammy Boys? Is he fit?

 

Don't know if this has already been posted but it's a video of Lenny talking through all our Champions League games so far. It's a good watch.

I wonder how many times this will get watched today. Another big performance please Celtic!

 

I wouldn't be surprised if it's all a bluff and he walks out onto the pitch tonight.

 

cmon celtic, lets do this

 

The waiting is grating now. Its like a crap Hollywood suspense movie. I keep looking at the clock and then not believing how little its moved.

 

Nerves are kicking in now.

Come on! Feels like the longest day ever

 

Really tough to guess the team, thinking maybe

Forster

Lustig, Wilson, Mulgrew, Emilio

Matthews, Brown, Wanyama, Ledley

Hooper, Sammy

Going for 1-0

 

I actually think we are gonna win the home tie.

 

I hope you're right!

 

Sitting here at work in the States just bouncing around. Can't wait to get this going. It might be 14:45 over here when the ball drops but that just means more time to rock when the bhoys pull off the W.
