Drop kranjcar and play holt in that position, waghorn out now for a few months, Forrester out right, O'halloran through the middle! Easy, we r one dimensionally as usual without a plan B, thought we would challenge for the league this year, NO CHANCE of that after watching us on Saturday, no passion, no urgency, no penetration, the stage was set, the fans turned out in their numbers, first game live on skysports, DAMP SQUIB. if we had the right team on from the start, and our manager even said to players to try score a goal, we'd a won, it's that simple. Clint hill was terrible, he'll b good if we're holding on to a lead and we have to defend set plays, he's got height, normal play, he shouldn't even b considered, I'd rather have Ali Crawford than kranjcar, thought he'd s strolled it up here, am right in a sense, cause he was strolling about the oark DOING NOTHING, but not that type of stroll, weak, too slow, not interested, shame as well, cause he was a player! We won't finish first, that's for sure NOW, but top 3 should b realistic.

O Halloran isn't a striker why play him through the middle?

08 Aug 2016 07:50:44
I hope the players are not as defeatist as you Colin or we are in trouble 😱.

O'halloran played through the middle when he ripped us up, plus his pace and goal threat means he is a striker or can easily play as a striker, well if uz watched that the other day and thought for one second it was good enough, u r deluded, the usual, plenty of the ball, 20 shots at goal, and score 1? It doesn't add up, and our usual at the back, conceding a goal as per! Wake up, wrong team selection from the start, y where 2 players aloud to b on McKay the WHOLE game? Without MW changing him over, or changing the way we where set up! Don't have the blue tinted glasses on lads/ girls, everybody saw it on Saturday and it ain't good enough!

It was the first game of the season. The only "top 4" team that played well was Hearts, and they got beat. Aberdeen could have lost. Celtic could have lost aswell, we should have won. it's not the end of the world mate. still plenty more games to go.

08 Aug 2016 08:38:13
Aye but we are not throwing in the towel after 1 game for goodness sake. We are putting a good team together, the fans are excited that's why 50000 at the game and 30000 for midweek cup games, as you say we have had w9veffirts on goal so we can't be that far off, early days might need a bit tweaking but the goals will start to go in.
We have to realise uncomfortable as it is that Celtic have resources we don't at the moment but it's our teamwork and sticking together that can get us there. We can win the league but we might not. We just have to keep improving and we will get there.

You make some good points Colin but as I said in my other post perhaps we were a bit gung-ho on our return to the SPL. We are a work in progress with limited funds, certainly compared to Celtic. Celtic were lucky to beat Hearts who were the better team in the second half yesterday. Sometimes you need a break too. Celtic might have already used their allocation against Astana and Hearts! Let's see the new signings all playing against Dundee next weekend.

O Halloran's goal threat? I take it your not aware of the goal scoring record then? He has never been prolific in this career so far.

08 Aug 2016 12:40:05
Ali Crawford all round play was excellent. He caused us lots of problems with his sharpness and direct running. He would be a great addition to the squad.

08 Aug 2016 13:08:24
Ali Crawford? The same guy who was in the away end at Tynecastle yesterday. Jesus wept.

08 Aug 2016 14:17:58
please shut up guys the boy Crawford is okay and had a good game against a terrible rangers team yesterday but I wouldn't sign him he would ever make my bench!

I know its just the first game but I hope we dramatically change as we will be struggling to even put up a fight this season as we where no where near good enough on Saturday.

I hope barton and niko can contribute this season they where way off the boil. even use the sparingly as subs until they get up to speed.

The first two names on the team sheet for me should be Barton and Rossiter and if we are looking to the future then we should be building our team round Rossiter.
In the absence of a proven goalscorer I would start with young Dodoo and give him the opportunity to excel and I would expect the non performers like Krancjer, Halliday and McKay from Saturday's game to up their performance significantly or they would not be playing on Saturday. In fact I would rather see Holt deployed alongside Barton and Rossiter in midfield than Halliday and I would have MOH and Forrester on the flanks with McKay on the bench with Krancjer. When Crooks is fit I guess he has to be deployed at centre back, which might be a waste of a good talent but a blind man can see that our current centre backs are out of their depth! Until then I would be tempted to try Wallace at centre back since we have a more than able replacement at full back with Hodson.

Id like the gaffer to show some balls and bench niko, and halliday for 2moro&sat. i'd persevere with miller as i only think he was starved of decent service on sat hence the reason he didn't have a great game.
