    Griff will start as he is the only one of our players that can take a corner. As much as it annoys me our striker is not in the box for set pieces.

    Easy. Griffiths, he's on fire.

    Then Dembele from the bench to, hopefully, hold ball up and close game out.

    Griff for me.


    Paddy or Forrest?

    McGregor, Armstrong or Rogic? (assuming Brown-Ntcham are gonna start)


    For what it's worth, I would start Paddy and McGregor.

    .................Gordon.....................
    Lustig.....Jozo.....Boyata.....Tierney
    ..........Brown........Ntcham............
    Paddy.........McGregor.........Sinclair
    ...................Griff........................

    Went Dembele but he's probably not ready yet and the form Griffiths is in and how dangerous he is from set pieces he's probably the more realistic choice for Wednesday. All things being equal I'd go with Dembele for these types of games though

    If Moussa is 100% fit he is better.

    Thing is without Griff our dead ball is a joke. When Armstrong takes the corners we might as well just return the ball to the opposition.

    We really need to find a system that can accommodate both

    Dembele for me... Anderlecht are a physically imposing team through the middle and I think we will need to utilise Moussa’s ability to hold the ball up to maximise our chances.

    Have a feeling that Roberts could make way for Forrest in the starting XI for this one so that we have pace on the right to help Lustig when needed. Need as much pace and power in the team as possible to have a chance of getting a result.

    Griff, I think he’ll get an hour context of the game dependant.

    Griffiths for me. He is absolutely on fire at the moment. Dembele is probably not fully 100% match fit yet due to lack of game play so might not be as sharp as he needs to be for a game like this. I agree with others in here that he will probably get on for Griffiths at some point in the 2nd half for fresh legs going at a tired defence.

    Leigh. In form and confident, I would go with him.

    Dembele is on the comeback trail but looked slightly rusty in his short appearance at Ibrox. It is difficult though, Griffiths is slightly more versatile and is probably the guy you would want coming of the bench if things weren't going our way.

    I always believe in going with the man in form and Griff is in form,Dembele just coming back from injury as well.
    Bring on Dembele if Griff is having an off night.
