    Gordon

    Gamboa Toure Erik Tierney

    Brown Bitton

    Forrest Christie Sinclair

    Griffiths
    Give Rogic a rest, travelled a lot this week. We'll need him for the games coming up in the next couple of weeks.

    Same team to start but maybe Izzy for Tierney. I'd give Toure 45 minutes because doubt he'll be comfortable with 3 matches in 8 days. And we need him for the two after this.

    Just about sold out according to the website (on the assumption that every ST holder turns up which I don't think will happen).

    Is De Vries fit? If he is it's going to be interesting who gets the nod.

    Lustig has a problem with his knee so he may miss out.


    other than that everyone should be ready to go.

    Looking at the fixture list I'd say this would be the pick of the games to give Toure and Lustig a rest, I'd absolutely start Tierney but have Izzy on the bench and depending how things are at ht/60 minutes in I'd get Tierney off and Izzy on. Moussa is still the number 1 striker as things stand, he's done nothing to lose that. Rogic can barely last an hour as it is so I'd rest him for this. So only really the back 4 that should look any different and probably Christie or Armstrong in for Rogic.

    I had Griffiths because Moussa has played a lot for us and internationals lately, Griffiths hasn't. And we've got a * of a run of games coming up.

    I'd give Tierney, Rogic, Toure a rest and stick Rogic on the bench. We have more than enough to beat these and I'd really like to see Brendan completely baffle them and change our formation, as he does during. 3-5-2..

    Gordon

    O'Connell
    Sviatchenko
    Simunovic

    Gamboa or Shooders
    Broony
    Bitton
    McGregor
    Sinclair

    Dembele
    Griffiths..

    Roberts to come from the bench, possibly give Rogic a cameo and Christie..

    Loads of option's and let the guy's that need it, get plenty in the tank for Gladbach..

    Yeah that's fair enough, I just think he's young enough and fit enough to deal with it. I also reckon it cause a bit of an awkward situation if Griff comes in and scores a hat-trick or something. You drop Moussa for a rest and then he can't get his place back despite deserving to be in the starting XI. I know it's not necessarily a bad dilemma to have but while Moussa's confidence is high I'd keep him playing wherever possible.

    Yeah, this is probably the ideal game to give Christie a run out and see how he goes.
