    Would have Nygren right wing and bring engels into the midfield.

    Last chance saloon for Idah.

    My point exactly. He hasn't scored in 180+ minutes of domestic football. Can we realy be confident that he can score in a similar amount of CL football, even if it is only the play off stage?

    Doubling down on your ridiculous post. He didn't play anywhere near 180 minutes of those 2 games by the way, not that it would strengthen your argument very much if it was true.

    Watched them in the previous round. We're a far better team.

    He didn't play all of the available minutes, because he's not good enough to start.

    His best chance of scoring is to come off the bench, which is a bit ironic as by the the time where he's most likely to be effective, he's on the bench

    Celtic's Champions League Play-Off opponents Kairat suffered a rare league defeat on Saturday in preparation for their mammoth trip to Glasgow.


    Despite the home side rushing to a two-goal lead against Yelimay Semey on Saturday afternoon, their visitors surged back with three goals to win 3-2 and inflict Kairat's first domestic defeat since May and just their third in 20 top-flight matches this term.

    Head coach Rafael Urazbakhtin made five changes to the team that travelled to Slovakia for a gruelling penalty shoot-out win away to Slovan Bratislava midweek, with teenage star Dastan Satpaev only used as a second-half substitute.

    Brazilian summer signing Edmilson scored both of Kairat's goals in the encounter, his third in four league games since making the switch from Slovenian side Celje.

    Think we’ll win both legs by a couple of goals. People have too much expectation on us going to Kazakhstan and no having no idea how to kick the baw.

    If we take a 2-0 lead over there I won’t be nervy about it. Would take a total calamity for us to * it up from there. And whilst yes we’ve seen that before, let’s not pretend we should expect it

    Looking forward to this. Yang and Forrest both to score, and assist each other's goals. Bank it.

    I’ll take that as gospel that.

    Need to show up and prove it. I want us starting at a blistering speed. We talk about it’s a * travelling to Kazakhstan, should be worse them coming here, at Parkhead, want the fans right up for it and the team to feed that buzz don’t let them settle.
