Ross County vs. Celtic

1

How do we see tomorrow going bhoys?

We have a lot of absentees - Stokes, Murphy, Bangura, McCourt, Brown, McGeouch, Ibrahim, Forrest and Twardzik all out and Hooper is doubtful. I’d imagine Lennon will send out a lot of players in their unfavoured positions. It’s a game that we should really stay away from a back four - a lot of natural wide options unavailable for us.

This is a 12.15pm kick-off rather than 12.45pm. Just awaiting the team news to come through. I’d be inclined to leave Hooper out if playing today could leave him doubtful for Tuesday. A lot of young players are in the squad because of the injuries - Watt, McGregor, Fraser and a couple more.

Tony Hamilton has just tweeted that it’s a strong starting eleven. I’d certainly be giving Hooper a rest today if possible.

Try picking the formation from that.

4-6-0

So is that a 3-4-3 maybe?

[font=Arial]SUBS: Zaluska, Rogne, Watt, McGregor, Slane, Keatings, Chalmers[/font]

[font=Arial]Interesting that Rogne isn’t starting - presume that’s just to give him a rest after his hamstring tweak as opposed to him falling behind Wilson and/or Lustig in the pecking order.[/font]

[font=Arial]Very youthful bench.[/font]

Any links for the match,Rocko/Bandage ?

I’d say it’s a 3-5-2 / 3-5-1-1. Back three of Lustig, Wilson, Mulgrew. Wings backs and a midfield three of Kayal, Wanyama and Ledley with Commons playing off Samaras. Ledley will probably have licence to get forward. Will I head to the shop before kick-off or at 2.15pm?

11

I’d imagine it will be three at the back with Commons off Samaras up front. Good selection by Lennon all things considered.

12

Samaras with huge green earphones. :clap: :lol:

13

Where is Ray Stubbs?

Jimmy Calderwood. :rolleyes:

14

ESPN talking about a 4-4-1-1 with Matthews right side of midfield. I think 3 at the back is more likely.

Didn’t realise Rocco Quinn was at Ross County now.

16

3 at the back anyway.

17

ESPN 1-0 Us.

It’s a 4-4-1-1.

18

I like the zombie-themed insults at the huns, very creative.

19

No, it’s a 3. Rocko’s right…

Or is it a 4…

Great atmosphere in the Digwell. Pitch looks well
