Gonzo79 14,940 Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 As usual, that lot will come flying out of the traps and try to score early. The big question is: can we stop them? Heart says maybe. Head says no. An interesting week ahead. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, and I wouldn't have him in midfield either, I'd rather have McAusland's energy than squeezing Tav in somewhere. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
weebluedevil 1,234 Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Butland Sterling Souttar Balogun Jefte Diomande Barron Lawrence Cerny Dessers Matando I don't think Clement will drop Tav, but if he's brave enough, I hope he starts Sterling at RB. However, if, as expected, he starts Tav at RB, I would have Sterling at RCB to cover, and drop Souttar if Balogun is fit. The rest of the team picks itself for me. If Cerny has one of his indifferent performances in the first half, I'd replace him with McCausland toot sweet. Lawrence keeps his place as he gives us a that rare goal threat from outside the box and has some momentum to build upon. We could win this one if everything and everyone clicks. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
yuddie 1,665 Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Aaahhh you know what? I reckon we can turn them over. I know, it's a toxic trait of mine - especially with this team. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, it's a toxic trait of mine - especially with this team. Yup, a fan on the radio last weekend described this game as an opportunity to change the narrative, which is spot on. They're not a great team, our fans make out we're utter shite yet we pushed them very close last season, and lost the cup final on poor decisions (ours and the refs!). They'll not be long in turning on Brenda, nothing surer. Gerrard took a season or so to work it out, and had them on toast after he did. We've given them it too easy for too long. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

der Berliner 3,682 Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 Butland Sterling - Souttar - Pröpper Tavernier - Diomande - Barron - Jefte Cerny - Dessers - Matondo They will try to overrun us and will probably have much possession too. We need a solid defense, a cleaner in Barron, and a creative-cleaner in Diomande. Those three at the back give Tav and Jefte the opportunity to hit on the counter, when we have possession of the ball. Lawrence will most likely play, but he's that sort of Rolls Royce in midfield that can do neat things with the ball, but in the high-intensity of an Old Firm, I doubt he gets the time and space that he requires. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
