**** Weasels FC and their desperate attempts to stay alive by screwing every other ****. We've got a massive game on Sunday. Thankfully, we have all our players back now from international duty and they'll be well rested. Dundee Utd will be no pushovers having humped the ****e at their midden in the last round. No team news as yet because we've had to cancel our press conference as a result of the penniless tramps and their ongoing attempts to drag Scottish football through the sewer but I'd expect see some or all of Matthews, Cha, Izzaguirre, Brown and Sammy back in the team. We have an excellent record against Dundee United under Neil Lennon and hopefully this will continue on Sunday.
I said yesterday that I reckon this could be the biggest hurdle to vault in order for us to get the treble. I just hope that events at Ra Big Midden don't mean our bhoys become complacent - I'm pretty sure Lennon, for one, isn't complacent. Back to a more recognisable set of full backs on Sunday. United are a cracking side and they're in-form - it's on their patch anaw. It's going to be a tough game and it could be the best game of the whole season
Really looking forward to the game on Sunday. Shall be nursing an almighty hangover from getting pished watching the Irish hump us in the 6 nations the morra, but reckon a good atmosphere and a 2-1 win for the celts will soon sort me out!
To be honest i'm happy that we are away to Utd as we seem to save our best performances for away games, it'll be tough but we should be good enough to beat them with a full strength side. I doubt Lenny will take any risks and I expect to see Matthews, Victor and Izzy in the starting line up. I suspect Sammy may start too.
Not sure about Izzy starting in such an important game. Still doesn't look fully fit. A few bounce games against the diddies like Hearts, St Johnstone and Rangers at the end of the season and a good summer under his belt and he'll hopefully be back to his best for next season.
Agree, am a bit dubious as he hasn't looked anywhere near big match fitness yet and this game could be a tough one. In recent games Dundee Utd have got 'stuck in' to us and I worry about injuries if they're allowed to get away with too many fouls as has happened before. We should have enough to beat them though as long as all the players are 'up for it'. Looking forward to it!
It will be a major surprise if Izzy plays. I hope he reverts to three from the following 4 or maybe 5 if I include Commons. Forest, Sammy, Hooper and Stokes. Brown Victor and Ledley in midfield.
game is nearly a sell out , nice kick off time for a few pints in Lochee before the game , who needs Rangers in Scottish football !!!
Old days Aberdeen was best away trip , now it's bus there bus home no stops . Dundee is a far better trip and Celtic have a great record there
If all are fit, the team picks itself tomorrow : Forster, Matthews, Rogne, Wilson, Muldini, Forest, Brown, Wanyama, Ledley and any two of Sammy, Stokes and Hooper. Get on the front foot immediately and bury them - Hail Hail.
Strange line up today to me... Foster, Matthews, Mulgrew, Rogne, Ledley, Forrest, Wanyama, Brown, Samaras, Stokes, Hooper. Must mean Joe at left back again with sammy wide left. That's a pretty attacking line up for Tannadice is it not?
Zaluska, Cha, K Wilson, Commons & McCourt. That is alright to me. Very flexible. I love Ledley in the middle of the park, but I am glad that room can be made for him. Izzy is a worry for me, but if he ain't at the races, then perhaps the league is the place to get him up to speed.
Anyone listening to the Lennon interview? Getting stuck right into the 'hacks' in the media like Traynor and saying that the club is taking legal action.
Beat me to it Pud, heres another just in case. http://www.vipbox.tv/watch/39878/1/dundee-united-vs-celtic-live-stream-online.html
