League Cup Celtic V the Dirty Orange Bastards Sunday November 2nd kick off 2PM premier sports 1

2-1 Celtic.

 

Vastly different in hun terms - wears a suit and brown shoes - couldn't be more different really if you ask them. He "gets it".

"It" being some sort of venereal disease that afflicts the infected with equal parts staunchness and stupidity.

 

I wanna see that wee * neckbeard Raskin getting * cleaned out.

Hes a * empty shirt against every other team in the league, but * Rodgers let him swan about our midfield like he was * peak Roy Keane.

Im far from happy about our current management issues, but I will freely admit im so * relieved i dont have to look at that gormless * standing on the touchline, pretending he's patiently waiting for his "tactics" to come alive, whilst Sevco waltz through our mid. Then to either wait too long to make subs, or make subs so * baffling that it has everyone asking what * game is he watching.

 

I think Shin would bully the * out of their defence if given the right instructions .

 

If we play like we did Wednesday night, then, I cannot see them beating us. We need to go at them and cut out the fear that we’ve shown in the last number of derbies. If we fo that I think we’ll win by a goal or maybe 2.

 

Do we start with Kenny or half fit Maeda at CF.
There's a question we didn't anticipate a year ago.

I'd go with Kenny, Maeda is barely 20% of the player we had last March.

 

Kenny on the back of 2 goals midweek should start I think. Same XI for me. Let them take that confidence on from the last game.

 

I'd go same team too..

 

You're last point is why i am interested in starting Maeda. 100% of our players where at 20% when Rodgers was here. I genuinely think that everyone will perform again like everyone did last game.

Except Hatate. IRonically that clown came on and somehow managed to be the only player still being absolutely pathetic.

 

The fact Maeda got half an hour the other night suggests to me he’ll start. Kenny played well the other night but if Maeda is ready to go he has to start.

 

This

 

Wonder if we won't try Maeda wide right, I'm pretty sure he'll start Kenny through the middle

 

It would be unfair on kenny, and will start, but Id like to see shin start, ir at least introduced later on. I think his strength would be a big asset.

For me, Maeda has chucked it. Perhaps MoN can get his head straight again, who knows. But i think he needs a bit a boot up the *, no matter if Rodgers blocked his move or not.

 

I wouldnt say hes chucked it. However, you limit your running etc if you dont feel 100% and he certainly wont want injured or he wont be going anywhere. Although that may go down as chucked it? either way start Kenny.

 

I'd start Kenny tbh, but I get the logic for Maeda. He just hasn't been at this this season though, and coming back from injury could he be even rustier? Give him 30 minutes against tiring legs.

 

Shin is muck

 

The simplistic nonsense on here that everything was Rodgers fault and everything is going to be fine now is delusional. Maeda was always a poor finisher. He improved for a spell on that because of Rodgers and because he was playing out of his skin to get a transfer. The board * the transfer window including Maeda’s move away and he’s gone back to type. If a sitter gilt edged chance came his way v the huns he’d find a way to miss it. Play Kenny. If Maeda plays he plays wide and ask him to track back and press etc. All he was any good for bar that spell that Rodgers got more out of him.

* rewriting history regarding Rodgers are only codding themselves.

 

Personally think theres a player but about 4 years away and we've not got that time.

 

Not nonsense at all. I would agree if we saw good performances from 2-3 players vs Falkirk but we are talking about the entire team. You don't get much more evidence then that.

Not that it was completely Rodgers fault as a manager/person, but that something was terribly wrong. Otherwise you dont see a full squad suddenly after 24 hours putting on a performance of the season.

The biggest change for me was putting Nygren as a nr 10 which every single person knew would be good except Rodgers.

 

I'm not sure what sway O'Neill will have come Sunday, think he was struggling to remember names of his team at the press conference the other day so i think its Maloney Mcmanus doing the heavy lifting and O'Neill just advising and pep talking players one on one with sage advice
