    Tough game after the effort we put in tonight. They’re well rested and will look to deploy the same tactics Livi did.

    Forster
    Frimpong Ajer Jullien Bolingoli
    Brown McGregor
    Forrest Rogic Elyounoussi
    Edouard​

    Elhamed likely a doubt after going off tonight and Christie is suspended. Frimpong and Rogic come in for me.

    2-0 Celtic.

    If this was anybody else we were facing in the league i'd be slightly worried, moreso because of the shift we've just put in, but aberdeen completely * it against us at Pittodrie, i might have even been more worried if it was at home. 3-0 us.

    Really tough game as @Keano88 says..

    Put some effort in to that and had some bodies breaking down like Boli and Elhamed. Christie out is another blow..

    Forster

    Frimpong (self explanatory)
    Jullien
    Ajer
    Taylor (time for his debut)

    Broony
    McGregor

    Shved (want to see him get a chance)
    Elyounoussi (would try him in the 10)
    Forrest (let him roast Logan on the left)

    Eddy..

    If we get a win here it'll be some week..

    Would then rest a few midweek for St Mirren all gearing up for Hibs next week..

    Tough game ahead, best team we can get out although I'd be checking on Boli and El Hamed who both looked jaded at end.

    Christie will be a huge miss. Frustrating that we can't get a consistent run of games from Elhamed.

    I think we will win but I think it's going to a be a slog.

    If we go with Frimpong at RB then McInnes will absolutely target him with diagonals and with Beaton on the whistle, they'll be allowed to put it about without any repercussions.

    This is our most difficult league game for arguably the next 2 months. Win this and 4 out of our next 5 league games are at home, we should be gathering momentum and opening up a gap, if we take care of business.

    We could stick Bitton at the back and Ajer right back or right of a back 3..

    Forrest and Taylor/Boli wing backs..

    Think lenny will go with bauer over frimpong, assuming elhamed can't play of course which you'd say looks unlikely.

    Other than that I can't see much changes, rogic in for Christie. Might bring Hayes (hopefully Taylor) in for Boli

    On paper it looks like it would work but any time we've played 3 at the back in the last couple of years I've never been convinced.

    Much prefer us playing 4-2-3-1 with the overlap but it's a case of do we have the personnel to win with that formation.

    I'd rest everyone that played tonight and play Jonny Hayes in their place.

    Will be Bauer in for Elhamed I think which should be fine as long as Forrest has a good game and allows Bauer to get forward.

    Aye it's no ideal but I reckon we have enough about us to get the win up there..

    We've got options to go a 3. 4 if Frimpong or Bauer come in..

    Taylor or Hayes if Boli is out..

    We've got enough depth. Last year after a game like tonight and some player's likely missing...this would've been a harder game..

    Still be tough but we win this and make a end the week with a real statement on all fronts..

    Tonight was * brilliant, but for me onto the more important game of the week now, any win will do. 3-1 Celtic.

    Me too, but I’m mot sure that’s the way he’ll go..

    Think Frimpong will be bled in slowly, Aberdeen away may not be a game for him.

    Hope I’m wrong tho.

    Forster
    Bauer, Julien, Ajer, Taylor
    Brown, McGregor
    Forrest, Elyounoussi, Hayes
    Edouard

    Subs
    Gordon
    Bitton
    Frimpong
    Ntcham
    Rogic
    Sinclair
    Bayo
    Maybe go Rogic over Elyounoussi. Hayes in to cover for Taylor as it would be his debut boy could struggle.

    Will never be this many changes and not even sure on the status of shved but time to utilise the squad and avoid fatigue, that team should have plenty about it to win this
