St Mirren v Celtic - Scottish Premiership, Wed 3 April

[Maria]

Surely this is the type of game where we start with both Eddy & Weah up front? Got bring Eddy on at half-time for Burke who just isn't in the game tonight at all (though no doubt it will probably be Sincy brought on again instead).

Its sincy that was running the byline earlier.

Conditions i.e not suitable with our high press and their parked bus for burke to shine tonight i think

Je pense qu'il est temps pour Odsonne Edouard.

Good of him to try out Frankenstein’s boots. Give them a chance. Pretty frustrating. All of the ball but last pass, poor finishing and sloppy touch around the box makes it a hard watch.

No as hard as wearing Frankenstein’s boots mind, but hard.

Sadly so far, not just a funny image.

Burke is a winger, Agathe type, so the set up if he is selected should be Forrest free role, Burke on the wing, he's looked a positive threat when ever put there.

Je pense que nous sommes tout d'accord, Larry.

Not taking the chances is a worry as it's becoming all too regular away from home

Frustrating 1st half. Ntcham and izzy poor IMO....and hopefully someone reminds burke that hes a football player at half time.

Aye you're right Maria. Burke more suited to Sunday against Sevco where the game is more stretched so he can use his pace from wide. He struggles in these type packed defences who are parking the bus.

It hasn't turned into a dogfight brawl so maybe Sinclair will be fine (I think he is too easily rattled these days when the boots are flying in). I'd still like to see Timo & Eddy play together more. Lets hope we finish them off quickly in this 2nd half.

Always frustrating against the bus parking teams Lubes

What is wrong with our penalty takers ,hh

Hate the 'stutter step'
Short run up, pick your spot and GOAL !!
Too many trying to be clever with spot kicks
Alex Rae, absolute fanny
Oli Burke, has 3 men on him but his first touch, is awful at times
Better off with him outside, to utilize his pace
Few changes in the second half, maybe Hayes on for Izzy & anyone on for Ncham

 

[Greenghirl]

Aye I thought he wasn’t too bad so far ?

 

[JimMc]

Get the Shved and Perez on.

Good to think of those two already for next season.

 

[Lubos left peg]

It will finish 4 or 5-0 if lenny brings eddy on....but going by lennys previous subs we are more than likely to see benkovic on for McGregor and toljan on for Weah...so I'll take the 1-0

Burke is a winger, Agathe type, so the set up if he is selected should be Forrest free role, Burke on the wing, he's looked a positive threat when ever put there.

The boy is not a striker. He needs his speed on the wing to catch up with his first touch. Not enough space in the box.

Or the whole pitch sometimes, to be fair.

He’s back on. Hopefully at least he put the boots on the correct feet this half.

Floated a couple of belters in none as good as calmac but yeah agree izzy not bad work rate too. In he did clip the cnut that took wee jamesy out in opening minutes ??

 

[Mod]

Ok here we go second half ?

Defo take eddy n weah all day long. Sincy too much of a pussy in these games

Izzy has been a great servant, but looks a wee bit gassed, late into tackles, stuggles to get back to defend, when they try to break
Possibly lack of game time and isn't back to 100% yet

[Mod]

Great save. Bainnnnnnnn ?
