Celtic (A) - Pre-Match Thread....

[Andouble]

Pep stated the importance of this game and I think he puts it higher than the spurs game. I expect his best eleven.

As he should.

If we win and assuming Barca wins we've already a six point buffer in qualifying

Some of the arrogant shite written on here beggars belief. "They're a championship team, at best, 0-4 written all over it, we will annihilate them."
It's a one-off game of football and all things are possible, especially where Celtic playing an English team are concerned, and the potential for a very difficult game should not be underestimated.

This will not be a 'walk in the park' - as one poster put it.
The Light Was Yellow Sir said(posted above) - has a point.
Celtic will be boosted by the KdB news.
They -Scottish/Irish - are playing an English team.
They will be aggressive - Hope Merlin has his ankle protectors on.
They could have 3 ex-City players playing (Toure , Sinclair , Roberts-on loan)..
and I hope that Stone's isn't our weak link - He has been giving the ball away cheaply the last 2 games.
Definitely "Not a Walk in the Park"........
Pep could even play Kolorov and Clichy together,
Pick starting eleven from 12 -
Bravo,zabba , Otto , Stones ,Kolorov , Clichy
Sterling , Gundog , Fernydhino , Silva , Nolito
Aguero.

PS. Celtic could have made it 1-1 at the Nou Camp - but missed the penalty.

We could play the women's team against Celtic and get at least a draw :-)

That's a pretty bleak way of looking at it - my way, is they have Toure and Sinclair who are shite!

They are a Championship standard team, but just as if we played Newcastle away, they be in with a shout. We should win, probably will but might not

Their defenders don't come up against anyone of Ianacheo's standard every week, never mind Aguero! A good start and we can have this won by half-time

Been to a Celtic game courtesy of my old job. Very very hostile ground and it won't be any different, and I mean hostile, it is on another level. Was at a Celtic v Hibs game and couldn't believe some of the abuse coming out of what I thought was adults but turned out to be young girls

I'm sure Aguero, John Stones etc will be bricking it about getting abuse from young girls.

I agree - sometimes Shite players put one over there previous clubs. I am obviously hoping for a good win. We can win,lose or draw.

Bookings every game then.

Bookings every game then.

That's standard. 3 times the card per foul ratio as the teams we play.
