    Great news. Exactly what the two of them need. Any idea if Rogic played?

    Not sure mate, couldn’t say as it’s not a name that got Mentioned, the names that notorious has posted is fairly accurate and it’s the same names I heard along with a few Fringe/Youth. Add wee Dembele into that as he got a run out but aye as you say it’s definitely ideal it can do no harm getting them out kicking a ball during the break, Ideal tbf.

    Hopefully this all has Griffiths ready for Saturday. At this point it looks like he will be starting. Probably can't last 90 minutes yet but hopefully fitness and match sharpness wise he is good now for 60 minutes at least.

    I would love it if he starts. Hows Ajetis fitness? Is he close to being ready?

    The way things are looking he has to start for me, if he cannot last the 90 fair enough. Him and Klimala to start with Ajeti to come on and possibly Eddy depending on his situation.

    I don’t think I can take us trying a midfielder upfront with half fit strikers on the bench.

    How long did he play in that bounce game?

    Edit: Just seen above he got the 90 with Laxalt..

    Interesting..

    Wouldn't have been pushed for the full 90 unless he was getting a fair amount of game time on Saturday. Same with Laxalt who I think is guaranteed to start..

    Between the 4 strikers that are,not match fit,nearly match fit,somewhere close to match fit,no longer fit due to infection,maybe match fit after injury.We should be able to cover the 90mins.

    Lets hope we get to see it. But Duffy has to survive 2 more days of this international * show window injury and virus free yet.

    I think your right at this point I would be surprised if both Griffiths and Laxalt both did no start this weekend. Obviously we have not seen Laxalt in a Celtic shirt so lets hope he has a good debut but I must admit I am excited and hopeful about what Griffiths might do.

    A calm and focused Griffiths can hurt the scum and don’t let the * bait him .

    Ive been very impressed with Ajeti but there are a lot of positives to be had if Griffiths starts especially if Eddy is fit to partner him up front. They are two completely different personalities but they gel together brilliantly, as the second half of last season proved. If its Eddy and a.n.other then its a close call but I would go with Griff.

    I keep thinking he's due a hat trick against the huns. A full hunskelping.

    I think he will start. What a story it would be if he could score and I could easily see it happening. Griffiths knows where the back of the net is and if indeed he does start he knows what a big opportunity this would be especially considering where he was in the pecking order at the start of the season.
