Boab Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 First test of the season. Best time to get them as well. No complaints if we have a real go at them. Will we ? I have my doubts. Robbie is too cautious and won’t risk a up and at them. A point is my prediction. Link to post Share on other sites
Jamiemac Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 https://t.co/I26cw9U7p9 Article from everyone’s favourite managers press conference yesterday… All jokes aside, I’m confident he knows what we need to do against them tomorrow night. So I’m confident. Speaks a lot about the new signing too, who could be a good addition if he doesn’t get injured… reads appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites

Rick Sanchez Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Gordon Souttar Halkett Kingsley Smith Haring Halliday Cochrane Ginnelly Boyce GMS The only questions are Beni and who plays LCB. Cochrane had a great goal saving tackle v ICT but I'm not sure who's most comfortable there. Link to post Share on other sites

Central mid does worry me a bit though with our lack of pace so I would expect to see Beni at some point if not starting. Link to post Share on other sites
bairdy Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Don't know where all this new found confidence is coming from. As others have said, they still have some very good players. Midfield is still my biggest worry. If we can control that, we'll be in with a great chance. Here's hoping. Love beating that lot.🙂 Link to post Share on other sites

We will never have a better time to play them after a demoralising game that lasted two hours and you could see how tired they were, the manager admitted it afterwards. Whether we can punish them is another thing but the buzz of a decent signing makes me think we can. Link to post Share on other sites
The Mighty Thor Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Massive opportunity for Bob to lay down a marker in the Premiership with his team and his tactics. In fact he'll not get a better time to play this mob, be adventurous and get in about them. Celtic are as fragile if not more fragile than they were in last seasons cup final and this new manager looks like he'll take time to find his feet (or get emptied pronto) So........ i'm going Hearts 0 - Celtic 3 Neilson ball.

Cochrane had a great goal saving tackle v ICT but I'm not sure who's most comfortable there. Yip that's the team but if Beni does start i think it will be at the expense of Haring. I love the big guy and hope he proves me wrong but i dont see the same Peter Haring that we had pre injury. After some game time at the end of last season and a pre season hopefully he kicks on now and shows us the player we know he can be. If big Pete can get back to his best a central midfield duo of Beni and Haring with Halliday, Mceneff and young Pollock as options from the bench would be strong imo.

Rick Sanchez Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Another Japanese signing for Sellick. Link to post Share on other sites
ToqueJambo Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 (edited) Wonder if we might revert to 4-2-3-1 for this one or maybe switch between that and 3-4-3. I would be slightly disappointed but we have the players for it now. Problem is Celtic have decent players out wide while our WBs are not especially attack-minded or quick. So with 3-4-3 we could very easily end up playing a back 5 a lot of the time with Forrest and their new winger pushing us back. 4-2-3-1 with this team could be a decent option: Gordon Smith Souttar Halkett Kingsley Beni Haring GMS Pollock/Walker/McEneff Ginnelly Boyce Decent defensive base and decent attacking options.

That won't be the team, will be 3 at the back, Halliday will play I expect. He has had a go at Jamie who responded so he won't start, McEneff not doing enough in training so cannot see him being involved. So Cochrane and Halliday in for Haring; Walker/McEneff/Pollock is my idea of Neilsons team. Haring needs to pick up pace quickly or will be gone in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites
Doc Rob Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 I am fully expecting us to do what Hearts teams for years have always done when facing a team who can’t buy a win, and roll over to have our tummies tickled. If we don’t then I’ll be delighted, but it’s less painful this way. Link to post Share on other sites
Vic Vespa Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Working out West the Celtic fans in the office are far from confident, reckon we'll win. As I'll have to face them all on Monday that undoubtedly means ....... a Celtic win. I'm thinking we can do it though if Robbie doesn't bottle and overthink it, so much so I haven't even put in for a Monday holiday. Link to post Share on other sites
