northstbuddie Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 28 minutes ago, TPAFKA Jersey 2 said: Easy answer. Erhahon. Not so easy for others to decide - including JG. We are lucky to have this wealth of talent in the midfield. I agree however, that Doyle Hayes offers more bight in the midfield. One of Ethan's weaknesses is his indecision in the tackle, but Erhahon is a classy work in progress. And we haven't even mentioned McGrath yet - one of the most improved players in the SPFL.

Saint@Johnstone Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 Jamie McGrath is a real find, so good that he very likely won’t be with us for too long, but great whilst he is here. Hope we at least make Celtic work for anything they get today. Coys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayrshire Saints Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 WTF is Goodwin doing. Can anyone see what formation that is ? Tait on the bench ??? Presumably Flynn is knackered after Wednesday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayrshire Saints Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 It looks like 3-5-1-1 with a central midfield of Erharon Macpherson and McAllister plus 2 wingers and 3 at the back. Presumably McGrath behind Dennis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northstbuddie Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 Like last Sunday, another example of JG selecting the wrong formation. It's anyone's guess how we line up (and perform). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably Flynn is knackered after Wednesday The only logical conclusion that I can come to is that this is looked upon as a free hit, so we're resting players for the forthcoming packed schedule. The green bigots have struggled to defend high balls. Must be relying on McCarthy and Shaughnessy at set pieces to exploit this. I wonder what formation we're playing.

turrabuddie Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 After watching how utterly honking Dundee United were on Wednesday Hibs have to be a sure thing for tomorrow. Livingston to carry on their tremendous run of form and I fancy St Johnstone to beat a Killie side who have lost their last 2 games. When you click on our fixture on BBC the page has the table as at 31st October, after 13 games.We are in 11th place, level with Accies on 7 points.9 behind United7 behind Killie and Well5 behind CountyNot a bad turnaround since then.Fingers crossed for today. Hope we have a real go at them. Absolutely nothing to lose.COYS !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same team as midweek possibly with maybe Dennis starting for obika would of been my choice. We have a much stronger 11 than what we’re starting today, and with the season Celtic are having; we should be capitalising on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, why drop Tait who was one of our players on Wednesday?Looks like a 3511 to me.WTF?A centre mid of McGrath, MacPherson and Erhahon? This looks like a possible suicide mission!

Bud the Baker Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 (edited) Baffling choice if we're considering this as three points already lost. Celtic aren't in particularly great form, have a lame duck manager who has yet to make a signing this window AFAIK, are fragile with set pieces which accounted for our first two goals midweek - I know OK did it a coupla seasons ago but we were in the 💩 then. Oh well as ever COYS! Edited January 30, 2021 by Bud the Baker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPAFKA Jersey 2 Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 Ahead of Wednesday night’s game I stated that I was very happy with the team selection. I am hereby stating ahead of this game that today’s selection is a mind boggling shit show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonny Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 With 9 games over the next 4 weeks it is no surprise Jim has rotated the squad as that is one hell of a fixture list. Reckon we are playing a 3 - 5 - 1 - 1 . Hope Connolly is playing through the middle with Dennis as his speed could cause the Celtic centre half's a lot of problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After seeing the line up the only likely part of the above being right is St Mirren nil. Going to be a whoop de doo 90 mins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
