So obviously it will be an easy win for Timmy.
McInnes will go on Anchor Man mode as usual against Celtic and bottle it. If you are thinking we will change our approach to playing them then you are kidding yourself on. He’s already telling them he fears them by going on about them being a wounded animal. Ffs....what a sh!tebag!

DM will do his usual timid, cautious pish. Ajer, despite being a massive fanny dancer, will get freedom to roam all over the place, & we’ll lose 2-0 or 2-1.
Rinse & repeat at Hampden.
Hope I’m wrong, but I doubt it...
I’ve not seen Celtic play this year but doubt they’ll ply 4 at the back.Quote:

They’re back three will be asked to stretch wide (probably Ajet and A.n.other, leaving Duffy in the middle). I’d agree with other comments that we want to invite Duffy to step out of the centre and when we nick the ball, counter fast and direct through the centre.
Duffy is a big capable unit, but suspect when players with pace ran at / past him.
I hope they stick with a 3 as that gives us a chance of a win.Quote:

Tims have really struggled with 3 at the back against two teams who pressed them high and harassed the wide players.
If they went 3 at the back m, & we did that, I’d fancy us getting a result.
Issues are:
They played far better with 4 at the back & Christie in midfield second half vs Milan - so I think they might well stick with that.
We never press like Sevco & Milan did - which means Lemmon might stick with a 3. If they do & we sit off, we’ll get pumped...
They’ll play a back 4.Quote:

It’ll be 4-2-3-1
Barkas
Frimpong Duffy Ajer Laxalt
Brown McGregor
Christie Rogic Elyounoussi
Edouard or Ajeti
That looks a pretty strong side , I thought they had loads of players out just now or is that particular crisis over just in time to meet us?Quote:

Surely would suit our 3-4-2-1 system. It’ll end up a battle of the midfields. With our 6 versus their 5Quote:
