Ryan Christie at it again by all accounts?  Surprised he hasn't set up his own shipment of Cuban cigars with the amount he's gotten through this season already.  He's far too good for the Scottish Premiership.

The goal he scored was sublime,Shaughnessy diving in like a chookie hen, beautiful left peg you should be proud.

Can't believe that no c**t has replied about having a shot with something about your maw. Pretty poor lads.

I was disappointed in the bites I got to be honest, Tam. Resorting to grammar is always pretty grim. Your fellow Saints fans have let you down big time here.

Unfortunately so but Greg Aitken was right on top of it and correctly booked him. 

The first goal last night annoyed me. McGregor had dropped deep and sprayed the ball out right, at that point Davidson clearly passed McGregor on to Swanson and told him to track him. Ten seconds later or whatever, McGregor is in acres of spade and Swanson is standing wide left like a spare part. Our organisation had been so good up until then.

I did rate him but never thought he would as pivotal to what he has become now. The extra muscle Rodgers has told him to put on has made him a far more formidable player. A lot of young Scottish players come to Celtic and lose their motivation once they get a bigger wage but he really has kicked on.  Cant see Rogic taking his place back any time soon.

Reckon we may go with Weah rather than Burke up front on Sunday, playing Burke as a lone striker for me didn't really work the other night as he spent too much time coming deep and/or with his back to goal rather than looking for a flick or one-two to go past the last defender which is more suited to Weah. 

 

But then again what do I know, there's a reason why Brendan Rodgers is paid a rumoured two million per year to pick players and set out tactics while I repair boilers and fit showers.

Clark

Foster -  Kerr - Shaughnessy - Tanser

MOH - Davidson - Goss - Craig - Kennedy 

Watt

Probably wrong, but my opinion is always that Celtic/Rangers over commit their full backs so the channels are the weak spot, especially if the full backs will be Izaguirre/Lustig.

Have Craig and Davidson clogging about, have MOH primed to break into the space and have Watt occupy the centre halves. Would probably be ripped apart if central players for Celtic start drifting wide, but it would give them something to think about in terms of defence.

I don't think we can expect to play through them, nor can we have ten men behind the ball and expect to scare them.

I'd be happy with RG's line up.  But then I was quite happy with our starting team the other night as well.

I noticed a bit of criticism on WAP, I think for the way we set up. Two solid lines of four with MOH and Swanson up the park to run with the ball/ take defenders on seemed a decent tactic beforehand to me, and was actually fairly positive in terms of playing Swanson and O'Halloran in the same team I thought.

The manager hit the nail on the head in his summary, if our players panic on the ball and get rid of it too soon, or are careless and give it straight back to them, then it doesn't matter what formation we play.

Agree regarding Weah. I really rate him but we toiled against Hamilton when he started the other week. Wasn't untill Burke came on that the game opened up more with him dragging defenders away with his off the ball running. Hopefully Eddie might be fit to start. Whilst Weah has unreal pace, great touch and finish his build up play was pretty non-existent against Hamilton.
