Rudy T Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 I think we could sneak a draw. If we can frustrate the life out of them for at least the first half there's good chance big Kyle will smash one in for us on the counter early in the 2nd half...before they get their penalty.

hueyview Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Can only see a Celtic win by say 3 goals. Can see Hearts scoring, now having players who can, and the new interim manager bounze. A hard month of away games, mostly draws, would leave Hearts lower mid table. But then 8 home ties up to Christmas with a settled manager could see a rapid run of wins and draws, climbing the table every week. Making for a great yuletide derby......

Darren Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Hamilton Smith McGhee Berra Smith-Brown Cowie Randall Djoum Martin Lafferty Stockton We won't go 4-4-2 and that line-up shows why it basically isn't an option for us just now. he lack of wide midfielders in our squad based on the head coach's preference for wing backs is scandalous and makes a mockery of having a director of football to ensure consistency in player recruitment. I'd go for an ultra-defensive 4-5-1 and hope to get out of there with a flukey win/draw/small defeat.

The Duke Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Everybody and their dog predicting a rout but they are not firing on all cylinders, tough game midweek as well. Feels a bit like we have a free hit at them, up against it though obviously. Draw would be a minor miracle. Heard a few so called Hearts fans investing in Celtic -3, never understand backing against your own team like that. If we get to 60 mins all square I'd be happy, hoping against hope to nick something. Cmon The Jam Tarts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If both Grzelak and Brandon, must mean Smith-Brown is out and Grzelak is playing DCM. Really hope Prince isn't playing, he did well against Newcastle but his performance last week was utterly shocking! No Isma is a tad disappointing, he's pretty much the only one that can do something a bit different and could open up Celtic. Yea he he needs to change his game here and there but he's a player.

1874robbo Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Given his previous of playing for the Huns I'm worried about lafferty today. Celtic fans will give him a hard time and react to any challenge he makes in the air or on the ground!!! I fear for him getting a red card!!! I'll certainly be putting my cash on him to get 1st booking. Strong ref required but very rarely see that through there!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

portobellojambo1 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Although it is a shite outlook to be going to a football game with today is the sort of day where it is difficult to really visualise anything other than defeat by a few goals. So lets go and do the unexpected. We need to be strong at the back and frustrate them in the middle of the field. Although he is a player destined to be high quality for us I think the game against Dunfermline maybe suggested that John Souttar needs a little more time to reach the level of fitness needed by a defender for today;s game. You then have to decide who is going to play central defence alongside Berra. Both Berra and Aaron Hughes, while good players, aren't the fastest in the world, so might not be the best pairing for today. Have no problems with Michael Smith at right back, if Smith-Brown still isn't available left back could be a problem. In midfield we need to have strength and energy. For me this could be a game to throw Jamie Brandon into the midfield, give him someone we class as a major player for them and tell him to get close to him, tackle him hard regularly and push him out of the game. He, Brandon, is the sort of player that you know was developed by one of the Old Firm, he looks like a youngster for who defeat just isn't an option, the sort of attitude we need to install throughout the team. I have no idea what Randall is like, but lets find out today if he can do a job in a mainly defensive midfield, we need energy in there to frustrate Celtic. I have to admit I'm not overly disappointed by comments on this thread that Ismael Goncalves won't be playing, as I've been mostly disappointed from what I've seen of him so far this season. Lot of stories going about that when he did leave to go to Cyprus one of the reasons was that he had developed more than a strong liking for Scottish beer. Although it appeared he had sorted himself out in Cyprus one or two of the things I've heard is that said liking is back. This might help explain why he looks slower than he was when he arrived and also why he asked HMFC to play him further left rather than in a more central attacking position where he would be more involved in the game. Who do we replace him with though for today, as it is pointless leaving Kyle Lafferty up front on his own. If we can get everything to gel today and come away with a draw I'll be happy, a win would just be the perfect result. However, it is also difficult to discount that if we give them total control of the game the end result could be very bruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 I think we will get beat, however, I don't think it will be a rout. We will see a bit of a bounce from cathro leaving imo. I think the players will understand the game plan better, be more motivated for a number of reasons. Whilst I think celtic won't be at their best to European adventure. Would not be surprised to see a draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
