    Really not overly concerned about the cup final now, obviously they were all over us for periods of that game but it still took a wonder goal for them to score against us.

    Well, we've just seen that, at our absolute worst, we can beat anyone in Scotland, so I have no worries about this game now (beyond a dodgy ref giving dodgy decisions).

    I hope we are cruising (obv) and near the end big Jozo absolutely smashes that wee * Logan. I hate his * guts. He is a snake.

    After friday's game I'm not concerned at all that we will dominate Aberdeen and therefore win.
    Of course, it's a final and everything can happen - but not this season. Just perfect so far.

    Must control the game better, if we do go ahead, as we let them back in it on Friday, luckily the damage was already done.

    If we go 1-0 up, press them, attack them and hit them with our lethal Trio of attacking options and get another. Then, we just need to keep the ball and control the game at our own pace.

    Confidence is absolutely booming throughout the team, let's get this Treble!

    3-0 Celtic!

    The sheep are going to be happy about the fact that they are now into the 2nd qualifying round of Europa next season because Feyenoords title win means that Aberdeen got a 1st round bye.

    He's a snidey wee *. I still believe to this day he made up the Tonev incident..

    He regularly act's a * to our support at Pittodrie when taking throw ins from his right and should've been off on Friday as throwing the ball at Griff's head is at least a yellow..

    The guy's * as well. Regularly tortured by us. Nice assist for Armstrong Friday though..

    Someone will snap him when we're up. I'm sure of it..

    The sheep will give it everything, no doubt about that, but they don't have the quality that we do, i think we will win it by at least a couple of goals. :ynwacelti

    Lambs to the slaughter. We'll just keep ram-ming them. It'll be very baa-d for them.

    Absolutely it will. As it already has done this season..

    I'm glad McInnes is pretending they've got some confidence from somewhere but all I saw was a gaping defence of big diddies getting exposed anytime we wanted. Reynolds getting pegged or flicks over the head from Rogic. That donkey Ash Taylor getting beat at corners, turned by Griff for his goal. Considine another big dud no knowing where Paddy was before our first. Logan literally running away from Sinclair as he's baring down on goal and * it passing straight to Armstrong for our second..

    I saw plenty to be confident about. We'll steam roller them massively. Brendan always has a little trick up his sleeve when playing a same side soon after..

    Captain fantastic back fit and firing as well..

    I'm buzzing for this already..

    Yeah, other than the long punt up the park they don't have much else against us.

    One thing we have to make sure of is closing down the space in wide areas. I felt we gave both McGinn and Hayes far too much time to pick out crosses.

    They stretch the game very well, caused us problems last week. Hayes is a real danger when on his game, McGinn too.

    Stockley isn't great but he has qualities that can cause problems, Jozo needs to dominate him this time, didn't think he won that battle last time around.

    The biggest strength of them is in the air from out wide and set piece's... Brendan was spot on, but I feel we're much stronger than them in that department as a threat with Boyata alone. They've guy's at 6'5 who couldn't get near him and our centre back was unlucky not to score a hattrick with his nut..

    McGinn is ok but I don't overly rate him. It's Hayes and Hayes only for me. He's the one bursting a gut for last ditch tackles, he's the man with pace, he's the man that can score a goal from long range or in behind, and good with crosses..

    Stop him, which I'm confident we will, and they are pretty toothless as a team. Back to crosses again but Rooney is slow, * touch, no skill but can be a threat from a cross ball..

    Our pace, movement and ability to adapt if need be will kill them on this pitch again which should be perfect as no game time on it for week's. The latter only suit's one team. Conditions looked mad Friday at our hardest venue and we won the game, 'blowing' them away inside 10 minute's..

    Shinnie is a bit of a * as well but having Brown back will aid us in battling with him and McLean. Think Armstrong and McGregor struggled until Biton came on.
