[Matchday] Scottish Cup Huns away Sunday 18 April 3pm Premier Sports

Eddys been * imo.HH

 

I was giving the big moody * the benefit of the doubt but, yeh, * is an apt term to describe his performances this season

 

First big meaningful Celtic game to get excited about for a while. Can’t wait!!

 

No question the defence has been a shambles this season. But to be fair to Kennedy we have looked much better defensively over the past 5 games including on set pieces so hopefully that will carry into Sundays game as I think if we defend set pieces in particular well we have a good shot at winning.

 

Don't think Forrest will make it, my team prediction is

Bain
Kenny Welsh Ajer Taylor
Brown
Christie CalMac
Turnbull
Eddy Elyounoussi
​

Team I'd pick

Bain
Kenny Welsh Ajer Laxalt
Soro
Turnbull CalMac
Rogic
Eddy Elyounoussi
​

Having Brown & Christie in MF against them doesn't fill me with confidence, due to Brown not having the legs anymore (I know Brown played well last game against them but that game wasn't played at 100% pace imo) and Christie never having a good game against Sevco since he signed. Holding out hope that Eddy & Elyounoussi with Turnbull behind them can get the job done between them but as I said not confident in our central midfield to dominate & control the match.

 

Those three on their day would rip the Huns a new *. But. All it takes is one of them to be off their game and tbh there’s more chance of eddy being off his game than running riot against them.

 

Think we need to win this game in ninety minutes as alot of the players fitness is pish and fear if it goes to extra time our fitness will be our undoing .

 

Gonna hump them.

 

Shouldn’t 5 substitutions (if you actually use them?!?) help in respect of fitness?

It’s the Huns 12th man and his decisions that I fear.... they’re getting away with murder in the Huns favour and as we’ve already seen this season .. a single booking can dictate the whole game. That and the fact that the Huns aren’t allowed to concede penalties or get red cards any more.

 

Your right about the ref and that is also concerning but still think our fitness is poor and you know how Kennedy doesn't makes subs till 15 mins to go and that's my fear .

 

Still not up for this yet

My TC log in still works though, weird

 

That's only cause you're running BOTB they've made an exception

 

First 50p into the jukebox...

 

I normally use live TV.net app.
It's free but can be a bit shaky at times

 

Bain
Kenny Welsh Ajer Taylor
Brown
Christie McGregor
Turnbull
Edouard Elyounoussi

I'd pick that, maybe Laxalt who has played well against them but Taylor gives us better final ball and better runs I think - dont think Taylors played against the huns for us so worth a try if not Laxalt can come on.

 

You wouldn't try to get Soro & Rogic into the team?

 

Come on Celtic * hump thum

 

On premier the now beating them in league cup final ET
