Would that be regarded as a big two up top then, Shammy?

leaked team
unfit on wednesday but fit today

THREE FIVE TWO it’s quite simple, play a formation that we ran riot using and not a formation that doesn’t work!!

 

[Ally]

Another game another 3 points,? You'd like to think so but the way we are playing not so easy. Need the win before the intl break. Time the Bhoys got the working clothes on and got stuck in.

Afolabe, O Connor, Karamoko, Soro, Oko Flex are just some of the names I'd like to start seeing on teamsheets.

I just read on Facebook someone saying their son forwarded what is supposed to be today's lineup at 8:45. Fortunately this guy is as angry about the leaked teamsheets as most of us so he refused to post it.

But if it is doing the rounds then we know that some clickbait blogger desperate for website hits will posr it in the next couple of hours, which will give our opponents a chance to prepare contingency tactics to counteract this line up.

This is looking very much like a disgruntled player trying to undermine our club.

Easy sorted mate:

 

[boab1916]

Sportsound don't know the team so it's all guesswork.

 

[Spherical Planet]

Can we all safely assume that every manager in this league has a fair-to-decent idea of how we start and how we line up?

This is the time to show our versatility and depth by putting out a starting XI and formation that they have NOT accounted for. If it doesn't pay dividends, then there are 5 options on the bench to turn it around, but I stand by the principles that genuinely good players can adapt to any circumstance, so let's see how good these boys are?

Me, personally.........I'd go good old-fashioned 4-4-2. No hiding place. No excuses. Just go out and do your job.

 

[Spherical Planet]

Just don't see what everyone else see's in ajeti ,between him and klimala (an unknown talent ) klimala offers more movement good running off the ball and quick on the break , from the little i've seen of ajeti he's more a penaly box striker feeds on the scraps and stagnent in his movement

Maybe they will prove me wrong or maybe they'll come off the bench with 3 mins to go and score

Ajeti definitely looks like he needs to have someone up there alongside him. He looks a decent enough target, but he still needs someone to play off him

 

[Bridie Bhoy]

No striker again.

Not the same as the leaked team!

 

[Spherical Planet]

All I ask for are players and a team that play without fear.

We will whinge and whine when a pass goes astray, when a shot blooters over the bar, when the keeper throws one in. It's in our nature and is what it is.

What I can't forgive is cowardice and slinking away back into the shadows.

Jim Craig could have fell to pieces in 67. The man picked himself up and never hid. Never feared the next mistake. Never relinquished his responsibility.

We all fuck up (some of us much more than others), it's not the fuck up I focus on, it's the recovery.

Any team opposing Celtic in Paradise should be shitting their jockeys at the prospect. Just be fearless, brave and give your all to the cause and we will venerate you!

But we’re paying millions and NOT playing them

 

[dmac]

Stubborn from the manager I'm right your all wrong today it might work but if it doesn't then he could be heading for the exit

 

[Steviebhoy67]

The team " leaked is minus Ajer and Ntcham. Paddy up front.

Well Lennon had better have these misfiring bastards fired up today so they prove they still give a damn about the club. With this team selection, he is taking a gamble that they will all step up to the plate today - anything less than a win and he could well be out on his arse!

 

[Andy H]

Lennon will likely stick with his "levien" formation, simply as a big to anyone who dares criticise him.

Spot on lubo

Stevie - the team I posted is the line up fron the official club site.

 

[Lubos left peg]

No striker again???

 

[Richie745]

The official team supposedly in Celtic sources has no strikers.
Both on the bench
Lenny will be keeping them back for an 89 minute tactic change when we're 2-0 down.
