    Hopefully Abada and Christie back and available for this. Not sure what to expect but will give us a gauge of where we are at right now

    Real chance to do this mob. Big step up but they are in their own transitional period and already lost their first game at the weekend so we should be ahead if them match fitness wise..

    Lost some top player's..

    Need a good win to take there. Start fast and high and I think we'll do them..

    They will press our back line and it will break. We will need at least 4 goals over the two games.

    They've lost key players over the summer (GK, winger, ST).. so I think we can get a result.

    2-1 Celtic.

    After watching us against newly promoted hearts and them scoring 2 goals against us at home I'm worried about about our chances.

    Their style should really suit us. The Dutch always play attacking. We should have the edge, but they still have some great players with Koopmeiers, Karlsson and Wijndal(who would be my wet dream as a LB for us).

    It's * that we can't be really positive about getting a result against any teams due to our board failing to deliver the players we need. AZ will definitely test uor defence but, if we manage to convert a few of the chances we are creating, then who knows, we just might get through this tie

    Argument can easily be made that penalties are entirely outwith ordinary play, and that we lost the last second goal because we took our eye of the game with Wednesday in mind... Not the greatest defence, but entirely feasible.

    I think we might nip it 1-0. Especially if all our attacking options are available, as in many cases the attack is our best form of defence, if we pin them up and create fear about pushing forward

    People are definitely over thinking this tie.

    It’s not easy but it’s AZ, not PSV, not Ajax.

    Me too! It's the kind of game where a commited Eddy might win the entire round for us, with composed finishing, and if not he can be subbed off for Abada/Christie's energy - depending on which is most recovered and starts

    Wijndal is out..

    Hopefully Koopermeiners is sold..

    He was on the bench at the weekend due to his situation apparently..
