If Edu is fit for the Celtic game......

[sdunsmb 43]

If Edu proves he is fit enough to play in the OF derby, does anybody else fear will will see this:

Davis McCulloch Edu Beasley

Miller Boyd

- Or even worse, would he go back to 4-5-1?

- Will Thompson start (ahead of Edu) if fit?

- Will McCulloch start even if Edu and/or Thompson are fit??

Obviously, a lot depends on whether Edu can prove his fitness in the next couple games and also show signs that he can pickup where he left of in terms of his form from last season.

If this was the case, I would like to see:

Beasley Davis Edu Novo

Miller Boyd

What do you lot think and what would you go with??

(I know that we have two games to think of first but this is was on my mind, so I thought I'd post it)

Av been sayin for a while we'll go back to 4 5 1 for the shettleston harriers game, of that I have no doubt!!

I would be pretty dissappointed if that were the case, in recent years it has proven to be an ok decision, but Celtic are so awful this season ( especially defensively ) that I don't think a 4-5-1 can be justified.

hope am wrong and goes for the win but i think he will resort to his boring tactics and play for a draw but if he takes advantage of their poor defending and go for 4-4-2 and we could destroy them but i cant see ws doing that hope iam wrong

If the current form of the team stays i think it will be:

Beasley Davis Edu/Mculloch Novo

[Andy 69]

I cant see Edu starting this one, even if he is fit.

I hope your wrong with the defence aswell, Whittaker can stay on the bench with wilson in at cb

[Amac9 2,060]

Davis is our best CM and he should play there!

[adam2102 579]

davis will play in the centre. thomson wont be fit

[ricksen_da_best 2,034]

Davis is a better Cm than Edu.

Edu should work his way back into the team, and shouldn't be thrown into the Celtic game anyway.

[MasterD 7,442]

hope not, u shouldnt play ur best player out of his best position to make way for some1 else

[Jimfanciesthedude 24,785]

if smith goes back to 4-5-1 the we may see edu, davis and mcculloch in the middle, with beasley and novo on the wings

miller up top

easy 3-1 win for us

[Amac9 2,060]

We will need Edu back up to speed ASAP alongside Davis in the middle.

I think an Edu and Davis partnership in a tradional 4-4-2 formation could be great - they would compliment each other so well.

All this is with the assumption that Edu returns and play as well as he was when he got in the team last season - sounds like he has looked sharp in training and is a great athlete anyway .........

.......don't want another KT situation, he's been rushed back perhaps and he's looked a shadow of his former self.

[LegendofCoop 17,453]

Surely if a change were made it would be McCulloch for Edu?? Even with LM in the team we're doing great so no reason to change it!

[Poetry_In_Blue 1,043]

I doubt KT will be fit for this game and Edu won't have much match practice so I would have McCulloch start in the centre with Davis, and with Boogie being away I would have Wilson starting at the back, Wilson has played well against better teams than Celtic so there is no reason why he shouldn't start this one.

[Gaz52 11,837]

There is really no need to change the current team unless of course they don't show up in the next 2 games

[CooperSF 5,792]

Anyone else think a diamond formation would work?

-------------------Edu-------------------

Beasley---------------------------Novo

-------------------Davis-----------------

[Stu1993 101]

With thomson touch and go for the game i would rather have Edu in Cm With davis rather McCulloch. i think we have to keep beasley and novo on the wings.
