The only real option Lenny had was to play Wanyama in midfield in place of Hooper and put young Marcus Foster in at centre half. That’s probably the team I would have selected, but what do I know?
CH’s: Charlie Mulgrew, Kelvin Wilson, Thomas Rogne, Glenn Loovens

mncelt standing up for Neil Lennon on
Strange line up from Lenny once again. 3 forwards for a game that is bound to be in the typical SPL hammer thrower vein. We look weak through the middle especially if Ledley is playing out left.

Why has Terry Butcher been inducted to the SFA hall of fame?

Wits,
thank you for getting back, now watch the odds plummet :oD
Subs: Zaluska, Commons, Ki, McCourt, Fraser, McGeouch, F. Twardzik
Gordon_J (11:58), indeed. But let’s make sure it’s at the right end of the pitch!
MadMitch (11:59)…
CDR has a hamstring injury, and as such we only have two fit full-backs… El Kaddouri (who is a left back) playing at left back, and Matthews (who can play either side) at right back. The only other central defensive option is a 17 year old, so Wanyama will drop into a position that he has played in before. Anthony Stokes is our most potent goalscoring threat and the on form striker.
I’m glad you are not picking the team my friend!
With the resources available I would probably have come up with the same line-up as Lenny, with the optionto bring on Commons for Sammi and/or Paddy for Forrest later in the game.
Never ever understood the visceral reaction to Gordon Strachan from a lot of Celtic fans, including my mate who sits next to me at Celtic Park. He never could quite explain it to me in a way I understood.
Everything that Strachan has said about Celtic since he left leaves me just as confused by those who can’t seem to like him never mind love him.
Respect to the wee man from this Hoop.

He has impeccable hun credentials.
Snake Plissken on
Given the lack of numbers this is about the best team Neil could have picked.
there are players on the bench who can make a difference and we need to play to our strengths not theirs.

Mon the Hoops !!!
first
AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
Now i look like a plum,,,,,,,its no fair!!!
:D
Hail hail
Give us an early goal, Celts.
4th ?
Another NL special when it comes to team selection.
Will he ever learn?
We need a CH to do a CH’s job.
Not stick in a CM that we hope can do the job.
Far too attack minded.
JF / GS / AS / GH for an away game.
The last time we were set up like this BTM got sacked.
Should have had CDR at RB.
AM at LB.
U19 at CH.
VW at CM / DM.
AS on the bench.
At least I can watch the game from behind the couch.

Just give us one goal more than them
Top10
ESPN shows 3 ICT goals in the opening sequence. None for us of course
just looked on the official club site at the first team pool
have a look at the line up of players who are out on loan.
this lot would win against most of the team in spl!!!!
hail hail
Team news please?
Skysports Take it Like a Fan at the Aviva stadium
Hately and WGS in the ESPN studio today
CDR is injured. Therefore Matthews has to play right back. The rest of the selection is pretty obvious based on lack of choice
Wee Gordon in the studio – should be good!
Jobo
Hately v’s WGS – no contest!
Hail hail to Wee Gordon Strachan on ESPN, making Hateley look like the big lump of wid that he is.
The only real option Lenny had was to play Wanyama in midfield in place of Hooper and put young Marcus Foster in at centre half. That’s probably the team I would have selected, but what do I know?

>> We need a CH to do a CH’s job.
>> Not stick in a CM that we hope can do the job.
Agree with everything you said BUT do we still not need 3xU21 on the bench? That might have steered the choice of who to start.
Line up for today
Forster
Matthews
Wanyama
Majstorovic
El Kaddouri
Forrest
Kayal
Ledley
Samaras
Stokes
Hooper
Let’s take the chances we create today Celtic.
Celtic have 2RB’s, 1LB and 4CH’s injured.
Any victory today will be tremendous.
Come on Celtic.
SwanseaBhoy
C’Mon The HOOPS!
NBT,
long time, good to see you.
hail hail
Wee Gordon already laying down his marker on espn… As he mentions “them” not ran*ers but “them”
Love it wee man
Canamalar if you are still there
Sorry was away for a few minutes
Dan Breen is indeed a “bit of a whisper”
I too, would have expected a 4-2-3-1 the way we started at Motherwell.
But after all it wasn’t the way we won that game, and it was substitutions that did.
NL has gone for broke, again, I really hope it comes off for him as I’ve never seen a very
good Celtic performance in that stadium.
RB’s: Mark Wilson, Cha Du Ri
LB: Emilio Izaguirre
CH’s: Charlie Mulgrew, Kelvin Wilson, Thomas Rogne, Glenn Loovens

MadMitch.
You should phone Neil.
I’m sure he’d appreciate those pearls of wisdom.
