Captain Hilts 12,819 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Hopefully Warburton has learned from his mistakes from the last time and the team show a bit of backbone. This mob are flying so no less than our finest performance of the season will do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
port_bear 86 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 My team would be ... Foderingham – Hasn’t really done much wrong in recent weeks, still don’t think he’s the answer but he keeps his place. Hodson – It’s time for Tavernier to have a seat on the bench, he’s been a shadow of the payer he was last season, his recent performances just haven’t been good enough. Hill – Again hasn’t put a foot wrong in recent weeks and has used his experience, his lack of pace is a huge concern, however with no real alternatives he keeps his place. Wilson – I think he’s been the best of a bad bunch this season, again pace is an issue but again who else is there? If he’s fit he should start. Wallace – Still not performing at the level he should be, did well for the assist the other night and we need to see more of that from him, a captain has stand up and be counted in games like this. Halliday – Has been superb since the Barton fiasco, almost seems like he’s got a new purpose about him, lets hope he replicates his performance in the semi last season. Kranjcar – Some will question his inclusion however imo he has been different class in the past few games. His range of passing and vision is on another level to anyone in the league, we need to get him on the ball and let him dictate. Windass – Again was tough to leave Holt out of the starting 11 however against Caley I thought he was poor and too many times in games he goes missing and the game almost passes him by, this isn’t the game for passengers. Windass has looked superb and will provide more direct and better runs, he will also link better with Niko. Waghorn – Been slightly off the boil since the injury, however his pace and energy is something we need and hopefully he can put in a performance we all know he’s capable of. Garner – Another tough decision and some will want Miller to start after his winner against Caley and no one can questions is attitude and commitment. However, far to often the other night he tried to get too involved and was back deeper than Halliday and Niko leaving us with no one in the box. Garber for me will provide a better focal point and this could provide him the opportunity to start showing why we paid £1.5m for him. Forrester – Surprised he hasn’t started more games recently and with McKay really off form it’s time to give Harry another crack at the whip. Not sure what is wrong with McKay these days but against Caley he almost seemed afraid to take his man on, electing on almost every play to cut inside and find the easier 5 yard pass. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeirFleckNRothen 1,789 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Sadly, I can't see anything other than a Celtic win. I hope I'm wrong. Our defence is abysmal and a half-decent team would have put at least two of Inverness' opportunities, the headers in particular, in the net on Friday night. Up top, we lack an out-and-out goalscorer. Dembelé is on flames for them, as is Sinclair. We know that, first hand. Is Griffiths back? If so, then my hopes for victory have deminished even more. I'll be there and I'll support the Queen's eleven as loud and proud as ever. Yes, I know that anything can happen in an Old Firm game, but this isn't 2011 and we don't have Davis & Jelavic. It's 2016, we're skint, recently lost 5-1 and our manager has made a monumental fuck-up of our recruitment. That's the reality, for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misteral 2,930 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 We'll probably need to be at our very best to get a result on Sunday. It's not impossible that we won't be and I hope the players have the belief and desire to get us to the final.  Bookies say 4/1 to win and 3/1 to draw in 90 mins. I say those odds are a wee bit long but not by much. One bet on the draw and two bets on the win for the eternal optimist that I am  Oh, and 250/1 to beat them 5-1  Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Band of Brothers 10,303 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016             Fod Tav   Wilson   Hill   Wallace    Holt   Rossiter   Halliday   Garner   Waggy   Windass I think we need the energy and drive in midfield with Holt and Rossiter with Andy also on good form at the moment. McKay has done fuck in my books to be given a start and should have been dropped a few games back. Garner we know will wind them up and Waggy through the middle was working there is no use having him out right it baffles me especially after scoring a hatrick through the middle. Windass we know causes them problems with his directness so has to play. My only concern is our defence as is everyones and it should have been priority but hey ho we have who we have but as long as it aint fucking Kiernan.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
