Match Thread Celtic v Aberdeen (5 - 2)

[muttonhumper]

Considine and Low out for season?

 

Considine definitely onywie.

 

 

Tyrone Smith ‏@TyroneSTV 30m

Aberdeen defender Andrew Considine has been ruled out for the rest of the season through injury

[StandFree1982]

Well with Considine out the back four should be:

 

LB - Logan

CB - Reynolds

CB - Anderson

RB - Jack

 

There is no way Robertson should be playing against Celtic. He may have just been rusty in the last game, but he shouldn't be near the back 4 in the next 3 games.

[Stoneybloke]

At least Celtic won't play defensively like other teams we've played against recently. Whether that's a good thing remains to be seen. Don't see us scoring against them with one up front though.

[fine-n-dandy]

We will win & it will be sweet as fuck to beat them again & also stop the cunts breaking the 100 points

In the SC 5th round game - away to Celtic - it suited us to play on the counter-attack. It was the only game I have seen this year where we had regular man-for-man breaks and space to exploit. Hayes payed at his best that day as did Pawlett, Robson and Flood. We showed the character to come from a goal down, and our finishing that day was ruthless. If we play like that again we can definitely take something!

 

COYR!

Got a bad feeling about this one.

We havent really played well since the cup game at Parkhead.

 

They are scoring goals again & will be right up for revenge for the last 2 defeats.

 

Hope i'm wrong.

Fuck me, the end is nigh.

 

The Dons should go there with no fear and get stuck right in about them. Fuck them and their popcorn teethed minky twat of a ginger manager.

[alscotoz]

2 goal loss but we'll score at least one. Our defenders are knackered.

Why?

[StandFree1982]

Not sure why the old "players are tired" line comes from! We've played maybe 1 or 2 games more than most teams...that's it. We have players who've just come back from injury who look a bit leggy and a couple of old guys playing who look like they may need a rest, but we're fine. Just need a kick up the arse and attack the box far more.

 

Edit - Attacking the box wasn't a euphemism, although it's been known for our players to be attacking other players wives boxes.

[RTYD]

I fear a tired 3-0 defeat, with the clown dropping at least one of them.

[Tord31]

we havent lost by three goals (or conceeded more than 3) under McInnes so hopefully that aint changing

[StandFree1982]

Well that's us fucked then!

[Jay]

They have upped their game on every occasion against them and if the Samaras dive hadn't been turned into a red penalty we might have beat them three times already.

I think win number three is on the cards.

A draw should be the worst outcome.

I think you may need to watch the footage again.

[Jay]

I think you may need to watch the footage again.

Watched it plenty and still have it on my sky box.

You have your opinion and I have mine.

[ollie1903]

[toomothered]

Prediction for today 3-1 to us, we need the win, they don't

[a don in oz]

Surprisingly not on RedTV. I'd imagine there surely will be a stream somewhere given Celtic's inhouse online TV should be having it?

Never heard of cricfree. Genuine or virus laden advert link?

Deary me...Lennon on Sportsound. What a prick!

[Jay]

Aberdeen starting XI v Celtic: Langfield, Logan, Reynolds, Anderson, Robson, Pawlett, Flood, Jack, Hayes, McGinn, Rooney

[ScottishJohn]

I've never used it before either. Got it from Wiziwig. Just a typical flash based streaming site.

I'd sooner keep Logan at RB and bring Hayes to LB. Logan has no left peg and Jack more effective in midfield. Hayes at LB, with pawlett and mcginn giving us the width.

[Byrne Baby Byrne]

Ryan Jack just took the worst corner I've ever seen haha. Almost resulted in a Celtic goal... Bailed out by Logan

[a don in oz]

Stream gone. :\

[MightyDons]

Jack has been awful so far.

[sanuk]

Caley one up against Jutes...

[MightyDons]

Goal for Celtic - Brown (25min)
