Tonight can’t be over quick enough and then we can focus on Perth on Saturday, which in reality is a much bigger game for us than this one.

MJC Posted November 9, 2022 Report Share Posted November 9, 2022 Team announced, SO’D in for McGinn as expected and Mugabi starts in place of Sol who’s benched. Shields drops to the bench too with Cornelius in. Moult remains on the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yodo Posted November 9, 2022 Report Share Posted November 9, 2022 So with that team SH has picked this could be a real hammering . Celtics strength is playing at a high tempo yet he’s picked the slowest midfield in the league sorry Stevie but u need to up yer game and the fitness of the squad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC Posted November 9, 2022 Report Share Posted November 9, 2022 Mugabi at the back against their rapid front line is a terrifying thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grizzlyg Posted November 9, 2022 Report Share Posted November 9, 2022 Deano for shields defo right move. I ain't a Sol fan but bringing Bevis in not exactly an upgrade. Anyway let's see what happens, majority of us going tonight with no expectations so hopefully we are all in for a major cheery surprise.....COYW 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Bevis but against this lot I can see a PK in their future. Having said that sometime he just plays a blinder. C’mon big man. You can do it!! No pk’s and couple of headed goals at other end.

I don’t understand the Mugabi for Sol change though, unless Sol is carrying a knock? By the looks of their line up they are going with a front three of Jota, Kyogo and Abada so if they are on their game they will do some serious damage tonight.

They along with Spittal are the problems in the team , Celtic will play round them and we will take another scudding They along with Spittal are the only footballers in our midfield. Without them we have Maguire and Cornelius. Celtic would play around them just as easily and would have more opportunity to do so as we wouldnt be able to keep the ball.

So we both agree our midfield are shite If the three stooges are not on the ball then they offer nothing for professional footballers their fitness is sadly lacking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Maguire can tackle and you have already said his distribution isnt good. Thankfully Stevie Hammell is the manager if thats the best you can do.

Alan Campbell is the quality of player we can't afford to bring in. Even more so for a Turnbull. To lose both of them in a relatively short period of time was always going to be a huge hole to fill.

We pretty quickly went from bringing through Scott, Turnbull, Hastie, and already having Campbell and things looking very rosy to losing them all.

Re the Academy, we have to remember there were 2 years of Covid where our youths didnt play football. That interrupted their development right at the time we needed to be bringing through the next group. Its no surprise that we have hit a gap in the production line.

joewarkfanclub Posted November 9, 2022 Report Share Posted November 9, 2022 Re team selection. Im not sure its the right one and doesnt sit well with me, but we dont know if Sol has an injury which has required Mugabi to play instead of Sol rather than alongside in a 3. Maybe he just thinks Bevis is more mobile, which he is, and he wants to stick to our usual formation but changing personnel for the specific threats Celtic pose. Anyway, he has made his decision and we will just need to see if it works out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfc Posted November 9, 2022 Report Share Posted November 9, 2022 I think sol has been decent this season,it would be a bit shit if he's been dropped for the handball on sunday,mugabi being brought in who's hardly kicked a ball this season is giving me the fear.

MJC Posted November 9, 2022 Report Share Posted November 9, 2022 To be fair Sol has been poor of late getting caught out by Duk for Aberdeen’s winner the other week though Lamie was equally culpable for that one, and then Sunday’s handball for the penalty. Bevis is probably a bit more mobile but I’d say he’s even more likely to have an absolute brainstorm and I definitely don’t think this is the type of game for him. Time will tell though.
