SPFL Celtic V ? Sunday September 1st kick off 12:30 PM sky sports football

If say Engels was signed, he could possibly come straight in. Or if Wijndals comes in at left back..

Wee wildcard to throw them off perhaps but you might be right..

 

I love the fact that he has meticulously capitalized us, the day and the month. It makes it really clear that not capitalising the Huns or Sky Sports is a deliberate lack of respect.

 

Has to be Kyogo for me. Idah hasn't looked match sharp yet and while Kyogo hasn't looked at his best he always seems to come good against Rangers when he gets a bit more space to run in behind their defence.

Other than that I agree- the rest of the team will be as expected. I'd be amazed if he threw in a new face on Sunday.

I'm fairly confident, but think it will be closer than most on here. 2 1 celtic.

 

Don't see any way whatsoever where we don't spank them. They are absolutely *, we are playing some great stuff. Our front 3 alone (Maeda...Kyogo...Kuhn) will rip them apart, then there's Cal and Reo in the middle who will run absolute rings round them.

Reckon this will be a 4-1 or similar, and that's even before we consider we'll be adding quality this week, Idah and Bernardo another week's training into them, big Schmeichel pinging balls about like Busquettes.

We're looking at a pure blood bath here troops, the fact the mankies are giving it the 'we're back timmy' * will make it absolutely epic!

 

I have no idea how this will go. I haven't seen the Huns play yet and I'm not even sure about whether we're stronger or weaker than last year: we're clearly playing better than last year; but we've also just lost our best player. I guess we'll learn a lot about where we are from this.

 

I can’t see it unless a Bernardo or someone pulls up in training. Ange was pretty keen to give debuts straight away but BR will give it the not ready patter I’d guess. Not as bad Lennon who wouldn’t play new players for weeks it felt.

 

So far I think we're in a better spot than most of last season. Rangers will take confidence from pumping Ross county but have laboured in their league games until then. If both teams are at their best, celtic probably win 9 times of of 10, but it's been a couple of years since we really hit top form against them. We are generally good at controlling the game though so fancy the win, just not a pumping.

 

Let Kyogo start up front with a Maeda tearing down the left, confident of a home win, hopefully we control the whole game and don’t take our foot of the gas after 60 minutes as they always seem to come into the game then. Keep that foot on their neck.

 

Schmeichel
Johnston CCV Scales Taylor
McGregor
Hatate Bernardo
Kuhn Kyogo Maeda
​

Idah and Forrest off the bench alongside our new signings. Even if we get another 4 signings, this is the team I'd go with.

As much as I want us to pump them, I'll always take any win over them. If Propper and Balogun both start for them, neither will be 100% fit.

2-0 us.

 

Even if say we brought in 4 players this week- I would still start with this team.

 

Captain disappointed will be having nightmares about Maeda already.

2-1 to us

 

This is the team, 100%. I think we'll start at 100mph and go 2/3 goals ahead. Slow down after that and maybe end up winning 3-1. I'd love us to put down a proper marker though and batter them like we used to.

 

When we brought on Kuhn and Kyogo today, I think that’s our starting lineup next week. I think we will slaughter them. Early goal and I think we could really run riot. They are a shambles defensively. A gubbing next week would be the beginning of the end for Clement I reckon.

 

I would say there is a very good chance that will be next weekends starting line up.

 

Love the title of the name orange * just straight to the point

 

Have to say while clearly we are in a good place and fully deserve to be confident a heading into next weekend I think some of us are getting ahead of themselves with the idea that we will smack them. They still are the second best team in the league until proven otherwise and I remember this time last season when we went to the debt star with an injury ravaged team and they all assumed they would not just win but destroy us. So I think we need to be very focused heading into next weekend as this I am assuming will be a really tough game.

 

Just use this game as prep for the CL, and give our new defenders a chance to play together. We'll still do them:

Schmeichel
AJ - CCV - New CB - Valle
CalMac
Bernardo - Hatate
Kuhn - Kyogo - Daizen​

 

Has to be Kyogo for me.

I think we’re going to give them a proper doing. 3-0.

 

Think Propper and indeed Balogun are injured.
