RossBFaeDundee Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Do we have anything to worry about regarding Nir Bitton testing positive for COVID 2 days after playing against us? Could do without a Czech Republic scenario tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure, I’m sure all involved in the squad, players, manager, all the rest of the staff are tested often, so you’d think if anything was awry, it would’ve shown up by now? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. I'm pretty certain that opposition players on the pitch don't count as contacts, and since changing facilities are seperate, none of our squad would qualify as a close contact of him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Dykes noticeably won quite a few balls to knock down to someone the other night. If we're going two upfront I'd rather Shankland be on the end of said knockdowns that McBurnie. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the end of last season Celtic went to 3-5-2 with Griffith’s and Edouard up front and they played some nice stuff together, really nice 1-2’s etc. Not saying Dykes is in the same class as Edouard but it would be good to see how they played together. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty certain Griffiths won't be playing tomorrow. He isn't in the squad for one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charger29 Posted October 10, 2020 Author Share Posted October 10, 2020 After the Israel vs Czech Rep. game tomorrow the Czech players will be going back to Prague before they come to Scotland. They'll get tested there first and if there's any issues then we'll be playing a similar team to last month again. They've been preparing a 2nd team for our game since this morning. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wouldn't notice cause you're an idiot, but Shankland showed a couple of things that indicated he was miles out of his depth the other night. One in particular, right after he came on, we had a throw in about 20 yards from their goal on the left hand side. Thrower only had two options, of them Shankland, he just stood there for fucking ages not moving at all staring at the thrower giving him no option at all. The other guy put loads of effort in to make up for Shankland doing nothing, made a run behind him, got the ball, moved it on, then on camera you saw him turn and give Shankland fuckin dogs abuse. Would be worth watching again. He's not an international footballer. It might have been McGinn can't remember. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If players are not International footballers due to lack of positional awareness or movement. f**k me we're dropping our captain and the whole midfield must never play again. Also thank f**k we have the lowest paid player in the squad marshaling our defence as Cooper and McTominay have questionable positional awareness too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to actually move to give an option, he didn't seem to understand that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antiochas III Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 (edited) I said positional awareness or movement. Yes, and you need to move to be available for a throw-in. You know when else you need to make movement to make yourself available, when your defenders have the ball and are looking for a pass. Get f**k all of that from our midfield.

Scary Bear Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Good to know that Shankland just has to move about a bit when we have a throw in and he’s nailed International football. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macclyde+ Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Since I don't have Sky and can't watch it in the pub, any ideas for the best streaming site (legal of course ). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshmallo Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Head in my hands at folk wanting to change 7 players cause they're bored. We need to get our strongest XI on the park and win this game. If we finish top of this group we are set up for years, both in terms of seeding and future playoffs. Get Considine to f**k, and let's not give a goalkeeper "a rest". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
