[Matchday] Livingston v Celtic: Wednesday 4th March 7.45pm k/o - BT Sport 1

It will be a battle, their pitch is far worse than Kilmarnocks for me, Kilmarnocks seems fast and hard with high bounce and quick rolling its like a basketball court. Livingstons seems rough, soft and uneven where the ball doesnt bounce or roll well, always gets stuck under players and catches guys out.

Doesn't really suit short passing or the long ball since both don't work as normal. Think thats why they are so successful there, they read the roll and bounce of the ball well from playing on it all the time where as it's a mystery to other *.

Just get the job done.

 

I think we’ll get the 3 points tonight.

If Christie hadn’t been sent off we would’ve probably done a lot better last time around.

We shouldn’t be entertaining any notion of dropping points tonight as though we have a cushion. The pressure will seriously mount if that gap starts to close. You don’t want to give them any hope at all.

 

Anything is possible in football, I know.

I think every point has been covered to death now.

Hopefully we can all enjoy a good performance and 3 points tonight

William, Graeme, Stuart and Colin - hunnish names if ever there was lol

 

Marty they have only lost 6 goals at home all season but love your optimism

 

And we have scored 16 in our last 4 league away games

I'm done with this now mate

 

Would be interesting. Bayo really has to start showing he has something, or is he just going to keep hanging around the fringes of the first team before sloping off in a cut price £750,000 deal back to Slovakia. From what Ive seen so far the latter is more probable. He appears to have a clumsy first touch and seems unsure when he has time to score. Looks to be an instinctive finisher, if the ball comes at him and he has no time to think he will score, but he will have to posses a lot more than just that quality if he is to become a permanent fixture in the Celtic starting 11. I have my doubts but will gladly be proven wrong.

 

Has he even played 70+ minutes of a game for us yet? The guy needs a chance. I think he's looked promising in snippets.

 

First touch like an elephant trapping a ping pong ball though!

 

Yes you're right he hasnt had much time Im just going by what Ive seen of him so far. If he was a quality striker or had bags of potential surely he would have been involved more. For me the fact he is very rarely played speaks volumes. The signs arent good but we will see.

This enables us to go with front two without having to play 3 at the back as per say.
Christie will move in off the right to create space for Frimpong to overlap. Thats why james and Frimpong dont work as well on the right.
Taylor wont need to attack too as much as frimpong, because its not his strength as we have seen over last few weeks. So forrest over there will give us threats down both wings plus enabling taylor to concentate on the defensive side of his game and playing closer to jullien and Bitton.
Christie coming in off the wing gives us more of a midfield 3 at times moving into a 3-1-4-2 when attacking

2 up front with oh my days back in the side.....1-3 celtic.

 

Should win this one as long as Christie doesn't get red carded.
