No doubt Butcher will send out his players threatening them that their lives are at stake if they lose but we really must be up for the battle tomorrow. The bad news is we only have one fit centre back. The really bad news is that it's Daniel Majstorovic. It will probably mean moving Wanyama back in beside him which is a shame because he's played really well in the midfield holding berth the past few weeks. I suspect we'll continue with a front two of Sammy and Stokes. I'm sure superhoops will be delighted when I say this but Sammy has done okay the past couple of games. Plus we'll need him for his height at set-pieces. Another ridiculous kick off time but we really need to keep this run going and not drop any more silly points until the next OF game.
Cha out , Rogne doubtful meaning again every league game this season we've had to change the back 4 . Matthews will go to rb Kaddouri lb , evening times suggesting Victor dropping back to play with Danny . Personally I would play young Fraser (big ask at Inverness ) go with three tackler in the midfield , victor ,Kayal , ledley with Forrest out wide , stokes and Sammy ( need his height) upfront
Cha and Ki come back from Korean duty injured again! International friendlies need banning. Waste of ****ing time
South Korea games were world cup qualifers , but Cha had a tight hamstring after the first game and then played another 90 mins , he missed 5 weeks earlier in the season same injury picked up on international duty
I didn't realise they were qualifiers. Still like you say; not the first time it's happened. It was the same with Nakamura, he generally played pish after coming back from Japan games.
One of the latest Scottish Hall of Fame entrants Butcher will be trying to kick ( or at least his players will be sent out to) Mc Call's hopes of getting the Rangers job into touch. Very difficult game in which I think I might start with Commons and Hooper in forward positions. I think both players coming back in, would be top of their form. That might mean no room for Sammy who seems to be playing very well at the moment. Defensively we will have a massive problem if we don't have a partner for big Dan. I was hoping our injury list would shorten but that doesn't seem likely
I will be fair to Butcher at Inverness his team appear to try against both old firm teams , pity the same couldn't be said about Hearts ,Motherwell and Kilmarnock . My objection with Butcher goes back to his Motherwell days 2005 , the second last day of the season and he admitted his team were on holiday at Ibrox but would be fired up for last day of the season against Celtic
Tom cat The forum idiot, I never claimed I was picking the team and I certainly would not have the responsibility of doing so. Having said that Tom cat I thought it was ok when other people give their opinion on who could possibly play I thought it would be ok for me to do the same. Obviously I was wrong and you cat cannot bear me posting anything. Can I make a suggestion cat, why don;t you read my name on the left hand side of the post and when you see my name "superhoops" at the top I think for the good of your health just ignore my post. I would hate to cause you stress and strain and hence a heart attack. Stereo typist I am afraid to comment on your choice of Sammy as I am afraid of the old Tom. Did you notice the leader of the opposition in Greece is a Mr Samaras, probably not our Sammy's father hasn't got long hair.
Butcher will have them fired up - so its going to be a battle. Need some physicality in the tean. Pity about lack of cbs as could have done with victor in at dcm Tokes n hooper for my feont twos
Hopefully the rest will have sorted out Hooper. He has been playing injured for a while and it shows. I haven't a clue who is ready for action. Muldini? JLed?
Maloneyitis = never played once the clocks went back until they went forward , you might be right Rogne the clocks went back last week!!'n
Team: Forster; Matthews, Wanyama, Majstorovic, El Kaddouri; Forrest, Kayal, Ledley, Samaras; Hooper, Stokes Subs: Zaluska, Commons, Ki, McCourt, Fraser, McGeouch, F. Twardzik Wanyama partnering Maj. Sammy, Hooper and Stokes all starting. Ledley back from injury.
