We might begin looking like a team on Saturday

I’m sure Ronny Deila has used the international break to take in as many scouting games as possible, but he’ll be keen to see his players return to Lennoxtown, fit and available for selection.

Adam Matthews spoke to Celtic media on possibly returning for Saturday’s game against Ross County.  Having not played since August he’ll be well short of match fitness but his presence is badly needed.  We have a must-win Europa League game against Astra next week, with the shape of the team looking so haphazard at the moment it’s crucial we get a benefit of a recognised right back.  Adam needs an hour on Saturday.

Now that central mid is looking solid with Brown and Johansen, the addition of Matthews and McGregor will benefit the right, while allowing Mubarak to fit into his more natural position on the left.  We might begin looking like a team.  Adam also has the engine to play the football Ronny is keen on.

The only question remains how to get our Europa League-eligible strikers looking the part – and that’s not a suggestion to drop John Guidetti on Saturday!

    Griffiths’ well-taken free kick goes low past Currie and Celtic take the lead.

  3. Keeping The Faith on

    Been a long time since I thought I’d swap the Scotland team for the Celtic team , but I’d certainly need to think about it..at least.

    I have picked a 4, 4, 2 (or 1-1) depending on how you look at it

     

    My view, it would get the team playing to a system Ronnie wants, and would also better suit the players we have ? As other managers have done (those you mention)

     

    Get winning games, build confidence, and slowly introduce change to a 4,3,3 or 4,2,3,1 :-)

     

     

    Hail Hail

  5. Get SM back in the hoops… I loved him just as I loved Sammi.. They were under rated for some reason. 2 of the most talented players to wear the hoops in the last 15 years imo

  6. Oh, and we would need to accept some inconsistency from young Henderson, he is only 18, but Broonie could guide him.

     

    I would also like to see McMullan given a chance in front of Tonev, Berget or Boerigter.
