    I know this seems like a helluva ask, but thw one I'd genuinely bw looking to on the bench for some sort of impact in the attacking impotus is young Johnstone, apart from Moussa obviously.

    Not looking good tbh

    As much as I like Thumb, he's not suited to this type of game.

    He'll get no room to run in behind.

    Eddy has more about him in breaking down defences.

    *. Eddie is out.

    I love Griff but away from home in Europe we could really have done with Moussa or Eddie.

    Big moussa on the bench is good news though, hopefully we don't need to risk him but he's a definite game changer.

    Biggest chance for Griffiths since Rodgers came to the club. Now or never to show he can be as good as Dembele.

    griff usually turns up in these big games when called upon. Got a great feeling about tonight, we’ll win and all the misery of last week will all be forgot about. :celt_2:

    Desperately going to need support - can't expect anything from him if it's long balls up the park.

    Griff must be gagging for this now.

    if he batters in a brace here given the sheer pressure on him and the team to qualify and they do, then he deserves an extended run in the team.

    Thumb is love, thumb is life.

    Depends why he's there though, good chance he has only been training/traveling/benched just to give AEK extra planning to do incase he played. Same as why it was denied that Edouard was injured, we don't want to give away our plans so they have time to prepare.

    Is he actually gonny get a game? i'd doubt it.
