Salzburg got back to winning ways on Sunday after losing 4-1 away to third-placed Rheindorf Altach immediately before the international break. The stats from that game are interesting. Salzburg enjoyed 60% possession but Rheindorf forced 66% more chances by playing on the break, scoring twice in the closing 10 minutes as Salzburg pushed for an equaliser.
A point on Thursday would be an acceptable result for Salzburg so they could be caught between trying to defend and playing their normal game. Either way it’s likely they will hold possession for long periods.
No team is completely dependent on one player but this truism is probably tested more by Salzburg and their talismanic striker, Jonathan Soriano, who has scored 26 times in 27 outings this season. Consider for a moment if we had such a prodigious striker………..
Salzburg coach Adolf Hutter must decide how far tp change his usual game plan. Salzburg’s entire strategy is to attack. They have scored 50 league goals already this season, twice as many as any other team, while their goals against record is within a handful of the majority of teams in the league.
My preference would be to tempt them out, have them fall between the two stools of playing their natural offensive game and the more cautious approach they may be tempted to play away in Europe. One note of caution, the Ajax team who beat Celtic comfortably in Amsterdam last season were shredded 0-3 by a counter-attacking Salzburg in the same venue a few months later.
Ajax failed to box clever, we can be smarter. Stop Soriano, closed-down space at the back and play on the counter.

I have an android box. Brilliant piece of kit. Great for movies. Any questions fire away.

Looking at getting one. How is the football streams?
Kojo,
I know that your motivation is that we should all just look after ourselves, & to Hell with those who struggle, or actually care for our less fortunate brothers & sisters.
It suits you well.
THAT is who & WHAT you are.
Kris Commons is a guy on an entirely different plane from your sad & pitiable existence.
Is it not in you to just accept that this guy is a normal, decent human being,.. as well as being a much valued & talented Celtic man ?
Don’t continuously show yourself up.
Googybhoy tempted out of lurking mode..

I have a very basic one but I believe it you are clued up you can. The Amazon one certainly lets you. I have an XMBC box. Can watch lots of films on the apps like ice films and cartoon HD. Can also watch live TV like the sky channels and the fitba from all over the world. Pays for itself to be fair.

Oops, missed out sixtaeseven’s nom de plume in my cut and paste! Sorry!

Guys,
Regan:

I watched the STV interview with Stewart Regan. He said no such thing.
Whit a day! Two hour delay in Glasgow. Missed my connection to Bangkok. Transferred to Thai Airways from BA, six hour wait for my next flight.
Watching Chelski whilst sipping Champagne life’s no so bad!

Tom,

I watched the STV interview with Stewart Regan. He said no such thing.
I bet he thought it though! ;-)
Switched to Man City game

Football streams can be hit and miss just like the PC but the advantage is that it is on your TV so better quality.
The box can be used via wifi but I have it connected to my router via a cable.
I watched a celtic game on Benin sports which I believe is a Qatar sports channel a few months ago. Totally perfect. You can also watch celtic matches via Celtic TV through the sports devil app but patience is required to scan through to look for them.
The films are superb though. We can watch films in HD quality on the box and it’s great for the wee man because he can watch all the animated films and we never have to buy a DVD. Box paid for itself within weeks and I could cancel Sky Sports. Navix-X is the live TV app and there are plenty of links for all the channels. If you have the patience and are prepared for it to go down occasionally it’s a no brainer.

Bayern bring on Dante who peaked at least two seasons ago
Turned over to Apoel v Barca, can’t listen to,Tyldesley & Townsend anymore

” In an interview on the STV website Regan described how the financial situation is “concerning for the Scottish game” and that he has been in contact with Ashley’s lawyers to seek clarity over ‘some concerns we have got’. ”

OK, it’s from the DR… take it or leave it.
Suarez first goal for Barca, what a goal. 1-0 Barca
Testing!!!
Weefra HH praying to Wee Oscar.
Just read Regan’s comments ……. I feel he is only seeking to ascertain Ashley’s plans for sevco, and is concerned that Ashly may have breached the rules …… we need to watch this situation as it develops, so does every Club in Scotland …
Regan’s anxiety will be stemming from sevco’ inability to fulfil their match commitments, AND FFP…i.e. Spending money they don’t have within their own financial means ….. TICK, TOCK

Cheers I can get fully loaded with UK channels for about £100.
Will order this week.
Better than £67 per month to Sky.

Are you in the investor lounge on Thursday, if so it would be nice to meet you, mind you if you’re with old Tim, you might not remember
Weefra
Aye the ITV commentary is very testing..
….. and their inability to provide audited accounts / hold an AGM ….this new club is going down the same road as another club, recently liquidated in line with ‘the law of the land’
