Wow, Jim Leishman looks like an entirely different person ?

Yeah - Morelos, Aribo, Lundstram and the whole back four.  

 

I expected Sakala to be in the same boat. 

 

Maybe Sakala has taken a knock in training. 

Not possible. If sakala gets injured I'm fully expecting him to heal through the power of miracles, like Marvin Andrew's.

Good team! But yeah, no sakala and Roofe is a concern.

I dunno, it could go either way. We have a 36 year old midfielder who was getting little game time for two seasons prior to joining us, but he’s become essential since. Or it could go the way of Dorrans.

St Johnston pulled off a cracking result tonight, galatasary 1 - 1 st Johnston.

Lol, Hart is entirely unconvincing. ?

he's basically had two proper shots against him and didn't bother his arse trying to save either.

Their new striker just put the ball over the bar from literally 2m out.

To be fair he had a nice touch and goal in the first half.

Hartson is hilarious, “Joe hart hasn’t had a save to make”.

How did the opposition score then you fud?

This team they are playing look quite comical, but they've still completely done Celtic's defence and Joe hart with a simple ball over the top. Hart didn't even bother trying.

Our goal at the end changes the tie but I’m concerned about the lack of clear cut chances we created tonight.

They were a big strong physical team who played three CB’s but we tried putting in high balls too often particularly in the second half

 

Honestly I think we've had this problem for a while, in the latter half of last season too, but certainly throughout preseason and the start of the season proper. 

What a time to score! What a goal man!!! Brilliant. We have a real chance here. Hopefully we'll be a we bit more up to speed for the next game.

You beauty!!! Perfect!!!!

Aiming crosses at sakala seems a bit of a waste?

Brilliant from Wright there, he's not bad when he's up to pace is he?

That bit of play and pass from Kent, wow!

I'm kind of surprised we didn't play sakala, I would have thought this is just the sort of game he would be an asset. Against a team pressing high surely he should get a shot?

130 minutes left in this guys, at least. We are well capable of scoring 2 goals or more.

Well now, that's appalling. Not sure what Goldson was doing.

Great run into the box from Wright there!

Yeah, a big night for the Swiss striker who, if we're honest, seems to do better as a sub as opposed to when he starts games.

 

However, I do think there's a player there with a lot of potential so, if we play to his strengths, then he can lead the line effectively tonight.

Out of all our strikers he seems, to me, to be the player who should be able to slot directly into Morelos' role and allow us to play the same way. Really hope he comes good.

Itten getting a big chance!

If we lose to Malmo we get Kairat (Khazakhstan) or Alashkert (Armenia) in the Europa Cup qualifier.

 

So it's either a trip of 3,300 miles or 4,600 miles for the away leg. Not ideal, but should be winnable.

But if we beat them then I think we are guaranteed europa group stage at a minimum.

who could we have got?

 

Olympiakos will be really hard.

Could have been Slavia Prague for one. I think we got the best draw possible from the names I’ve seen.

About as good a draw as we could have hoped for. Group stage is a real possibility. It’ll be tough though, for sure.

That new boy they signed, Starfelt, looked genuinely awful.
