    The keeper must change, Schmeichel is a liability in every department.

    Daizen ruled out tomorrow stiffness in his lower back and his hamstrings


    Johnston Should be available

    Good that Johnston is ready to get some minutes hopefully him being back on the pitch can give us a lift because we certainly need it. Makes sense not to risk Maeda given how little we have up front at the moment.

    If he sticks to the same system and players especially in the midfield I'll definitely find something else to do...I honestly can't watch this same * every game.

    Not sure how this will pan out. I'm going in with low expectations after the last 2 games. Hopefully this is the game we click into gear. Wishful thinking.

    Absolutely dreading this game - but it's also a free hit and big opportunity to change the momentum.
    Mon the hoops!

    Looking forward to it and hoping my enthusiasm won't be quickly extinguished by another poor performance.

    One day to go and I still can't get up for this. I'm now resigned to accepting that Rodgers won't change his tactics no matter what and that we will once again see the mind numbing slow build up, sideways passing and struggle to find the back of the net. Hopefully I'm totally wrong but i doubt it

    Lose tonight and lose on Sunday Rodgers will be gone and i genuinely believe it’s for the best, this has gone beyond stale.

    After the game tomorrow Rodgers will say Sturm Graz are a Bugatti and we a shopping trolly.

    Hes used the shambolic window as excuse long enough. Its his job to adapt and overcome squad challenges, something hes clearly incapable of doing, here, at Leicester, and spectacularly at Liverpool, once he lost his talisman.

    If he doesnt change his tactics the season is over, and his career as a top tier manager is done.

    If he were to be sacked by Celtic he'll never see another epl club in his life again.

    How he cannot see the writing on the wall is just absolutely * baffling to me.

    At this point is actually looks like sabotage, not incompetence. That's how obvious the absurdity of his tactics are.

    Last night I had a dream that in a dire situation, Lennon took over from Rodgers and we beat AC Milan 6-3.

    Can only hope. Cant keep maintaining this impotent formation. 4231 seems the most sensible approach given the personnel we have and we have looked better for it when we jave changed it up

    Rodgers can be forgiven for pretty much any formation or team selection tonight providing it's not the same old same old. We're doing nothing in this competition anyway so use it to find a way to get us going again. Kasper in goal, Cal holding, Nygren cm, Reo anywhere....the tip of the iceberg but please don't keep flogging a dead horse.

    Honestly? Still look forward to every Celtic game regardless of how * we're playing.

    Probably something to do with working in a warehouse every day and using Celtic as something to break up my week!

    But even so, looking forward to this and hopefully we get some form of reaction. Need to win this to have any realistic chance of reaching the playoff round.

    I couldny be paid to watch it. The slow paced * of the Europa League, stadium dead, wee pishy tune before the game, horrendous.

    Should be playing a B team in it to give us any interest.
