Swagger 8,360 Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 1 hour ago, bluenoz said: I would take my chances with Cantwell and/or Lawrence ahead of Raskin all day. You can't expect him to play in a game played at 100mph when he has barely played in months. We need goals. Lawrence creates plenty of chances for himself. Raskin's attempt at a long-range effort last week was embarrassing. And Sterling has to play in midfield. Lawrence will never cope with a game played at the pace it will be tomorrow Ivybank, BlueAvenger, graeme_4 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Traive 23,254 Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 6 minutes ago, Swagger said: Situation is gutting. Complete collapse and going into the last chance and still we have fuck knows how many injuries. Lawrence can’t be anywhere near the pitch - just not fit or fast enough. I can see Raskin starting and Lundstrum giving the back four more protection - Ben Davies at celtic Park ? Could be one long afternoon I wouldn’t rule Raskin out. Although we need to win, we need to earn the right to win and that means stopping their midfield. I’m in the minority in having faith in Raskin and he’s certainly a better option than Lawrence. Based on that press conference, I think he’ll start with: Butland Tav Souttar Davies Ridvan Sterling Lundstram Diomande Cantwell Dessers Silva Just be ready at the start, not twenty minutes in.

MARK92GERS 813 Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Hate to be so negative but honestly dreading tomorrow. Souttar & Davies at centre back. Along with no decent options out wide or up top. Fearing the worst injuries have been shocking to say the least. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkylineBlue 24,399 Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 I'm really trying my hardest to get fired up for this and get a bit of positivity and hope about me for tomorrow, because a win would change everything, but I honestly just have zero expectation. Its just the fear. I cant see us keeping a clean sheet because our defence is howling and we have a CB pairing who have barely played together and there is absolutely nothing across the front line that suggests we can outscore them.

I wouldn't play Raskin but flooding the midfield is the best way to go. The only reason I would have Raskin in there is that he’s decent at travelling with the ball, which we are going to need tomorrow. Ideally it would be Cantwell instead but I don’t trust him not to get a daft booking and become a non entity. Lawrence doesn’t have the legs for this game either from the start.He couldn’t cope at Ibrox and that was with us having home advantage and them not having a fully fit McGregor in midfield. If he starts tomorrow he will be a passenger and him being decent at taking pot shots from 30 years isn’t going to be enough. Compact in defence with a narrow midfield looking to quickly transition the ball on the break to Silva and Dessers as split strikers is the best way for us to hurt them tomorrow IMO.
