eduardo.j Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Definitely play the full team and go with two up top, I really don't consider Celtic a strong team just now and we can definitely cause problems for them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest oldcastlerock2012 Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Keeping the ball will be key so I'd like to see Holt instead of a second striker.

CJGJ Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 First decision is the League is the priority but nothing wrong with a cup run or two. Second decision is who is 100% fit and not just 95%...only those who are 100% should be selected (McHattie, Nicholson and McGhee ?) Once the above has been taken into account then the manager has to work out his tactics then select the team based on them and whether he feels a couple of players require game time e.g El Hassnaoui ,Holt, Carrick or the return of Buaben...of course there is also Pallardo to consider. There's only 5 subs allowed so that will need to be taken into account especially as one will likely be a goalkeeper.. Halliwell I presume.

Horatio Caine Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I suspect team spirit isn't great at Parkhead at the moment. Deila complaining about lack of leadership on the pitch, which won't go down too well. Unfortunately I think Scott Brown provides that and no doubt he will be playing on Weds since he seems the only one able to give that leadership.

Thomaso Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 If we come out of this with no players injured or sent off that'll do me. Spot on. Really concerned that our pal Collum will dish out a straight red to one of our key players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caspian Primrose Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 No bad injuries or suspensions (i cant see him putting a shadow team out) is all i really care about. Fully focused on the league however i wouldnt be surprised if we done them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Treasurer Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I suspect that one or two players that need game time will come in (El Has, Holt etc) but not too many changes. Possibly either Wilson or Ozturk may be rested with McGhee given a chance to play CH alongside an experienced partner. Personally I'd be tempted to leave Gomis out as he's fast becoming a very important player for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Treasurer Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Having read the Sunday papers I'm not sure it will matter what team we put out. The media and the bigot brothers are making noises about relishing the prospect of an OF tie in the latter stages of the LC. So Collum (and whoever is in charge for the sevco-Falkirk game) will be "under instruction" to keep the "dream" alive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaps Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I'd stick with Keatings over Holt. Keatings has a great work rate, more likely to put a poor Celtic defence under pressure and knows where the goal is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeadrowJambo Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I'd stick with Keatings over Holt.

Ron Burgundy Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 In an ideal world I'd like to play our strongest team and hump them but If push came to shove I'd rather lose this match than any league game so my selection would err on the cautious side.

john brownlee Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Don't really care as the high priest will see that we are goosed, I don't want to be spending the evening moaning about the GFA and how right I was about the rediculus decisions dished out to us during the game. If we are going to get players sent of for Christ sake make it worth while.Having said that park the bus and a 90+Carrick goal would be just fine Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upgotheheads Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Alexander Paterson Ozturk Wilson Eckersley King Buaben Gomis Walker El Hass Sow After Carrick's fantastic performance on Saturday I think he deserves a start. El Has also looked good but he didn't score twice and hit the crossbar! Also I think El Has might be too similar in style to Sow, those two might be sharing the one up front duties.

Sierra Delta Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Full strength team but without taking risks would do me. If McHattie, Nicholson etc aren't quite 100% then I wouldn't like to see them risked for the sake of this game. Hopefully El Hassnaoui starts.

heartsfc_fan Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 I would play a similar line up to the team that played against Cowdenbeath, but with the following changes: McGhee instead of Paterson Carrick instead of Keatings This means we'll have McHattie, Nicholson, Paterson, Bauben and Keatings all fresh for the Livingston match. Whilst I hope we give as good as we've got in this competition, the league is the most important thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The journalist makes reference to the league being our priority and hints towards the team put out against Livingston along with Deila saying he's putting out a strong team. Robbie says 'strong team' not strongest, so their will definitely be a few changes but not to the extent of the Challenge Cup game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mulleted_jambo Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Alexander Paterson Ozturk Wilson McHattie King Buaben Gomis Holt Nicholson Sow This is what I was thinking but Holt in the hole and supporting Sow. We have options to bring Carrick on if we are behind and go 442, or El Hass and keep the formation the same. Alexander Paterson Ozturk Wilson Eckersly King Buaben Gomis Nicholson Holt Sow Actually I just noticed you had McHattie in there. I would stick with Eckersly for this one.

Homme Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Celtic to play their strongest team according to Delia. I doubt he knows his strongest team tbh.

I think it is a good game for us, no pressure for us to do anything. All the pressure is on them. We are not expected to get a result so even if we lose it is no big deal. I hope we play a strong team and go out and give it a go. the longer it stays 0-0 the more frustrated their crowd will get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
