This is 67 Hail Hail's starting XI for Falkirk. What changes would you make? 🍀🤔

Bryce Carroll , Nygren is our leading goalscorer and you would not have him near the team ? He has scored goals for us at vital moments during the season, but you cannot see this ! You need therapy .

Your comments on Nygrens, Yang, McCowan and Tonekti are all valid, but it’s more than that. The midfield is powder puff, Bauer is a clone of McGregor, pit pat, close passing, no creativity. But, bad as that is, the central defence is just awful, slow as treacle and completely inept at dealing high balls (how long has THAT been an issue!!)

Where has that version of maeda been all season ???
mick67hail160d ago
He's weighing up his options

Defence will have to be better against hibs and motherwell scales is a weakness mcgregger and KT are shells of the players they were few seasons ago if board had done a decent job we would have retained league ages ago and prob had another treble

Not another single point will be dropped by the boys in fact that goes for goals too , clean sheets all the way !
paulkelliher888160d ago
I really do admire your optimism. Clean sheets ....one would be nice ....can you honestly see us keeping them in ANY of the remaining games or the final for that matter . Canny even shut out Falkirk at home . Scales and trusty are poor .
Don't forget our 12th man,that crowd was fantasTIC today well BHOYS/GHIRLS

Was that Daizen Maeda's best performance of the season?
michael_clark18160d ago
Celtic will have to take their chances when they come because clean sheets are few and far beteween these days. Not only that we are 6 goals adrift of Hearts and this could desided on goal difference
sean70160d ago
Just in time to get his dream move? Better late than never I suppose.

mick67hail160d ago
He can dance with a ball


Who was your star player against Falkirk?
awilson1888160d ago
Daizen
alanbhoy73161d ago
Maeda
roncophotography161d ago
Daizen without doubt, but we had strong performances from most of the players.I've never been Engels' biggest fan,but he put in a powerful performance,so maybe we'll done to him.

Three points in the Saturday night sun... what are we saying about that?
cochranethomas8160d ago
I'm just glad to get the points truthfully I did think we'd do it though it's strange that in these situations I always enjoy the game.........after a victory.
tonymac44162d ago
3 points in the bag, hopefully we will see the real Celtic till the end of the season. Hail Hail

How would you sum up that first half display in one word?
tonymac44162d ago
Too many players making mistakes, but can't fault the effort. Big shout out to the fans, right behind the team now.

What did you make of the pre-match scenes before the Falkirk game?

When der hun start their bigoted songs i hope the GB and Celtic Bhoys drown them out whilst encouraging singing throughout the ground.

Thoughts on the Celtic XI to play Falkirk?
scorc3529162d ago
One thing I noticed is that not one of the January loanees even made the squad. At this crucial point in the season they are nowhere to be seen and MON is going for the players who have been over C+D. If that’s not sending a message to the board then nothing will.

mikeybhoy1953162d ago
To the tune of... 'my Larsen, my Henrik Larsson..' 'You are Maeda We really need ya You make us happy When sky's are grey...... etc, etc... Do they scum....

Will Calum Osmand have a cameo appearance tomorrow?
pauldshapero163d ago
I hope so, electric pace and he knows where the net is. Even 10 minutes!

We have named our Celtic XI to face Falkirk - what does yours look like?
alanbhoy73161d ago
I personally think kt should be rested and scales dropped trust should be on the left centre scales makes too many mistakes his possitioning and reading of game isnt good hopefully AJ is back soon aswell ccv and jota huge losses this season
ftgb1887163d ago
. Maeda Iheanacho Yang Nygren Engels McGregor Tierney Scales Trusty Ralston Sinisalo What I think O'Neill will go with

How confident are you that Celtic will beat Falkirk
alexander.j.snare163d ago
Unfortunately, the performances this season do not inspire confidence but, if they can build on that extra-time performance vs St. Mirren, then all should come good.

Araujo.
skevd63163d ago
Araujo loan is finished due to his injury he won't be back unfortunately

Tomas Cvancara and Benjamin Nygren scored, but who was your Celtic man of the match against Falkirk?
tonymac44245d ago
Nygren offers a better goal return than our other midfielders, I can't understand the criticism he gets .
michaelgeoghegan20245d ago
What a top player and adds goals Ben Nygren has become for us the Lad is so up for it and always gives 110%, he gives it all for say the cause, being CHAMPIONS. He gets a bit stick but seriously Guys I bet there loads of English Premiership teams would love to have him. Then there's Tom Cvancara just can't fault him and I believe he can only get better.
johntinney55245d ago
Araujo for me.

Has Martin O'Neill done the right thing by picking Dane Murray over Stephen Welsh?
Which player would you have picked?
callum_boyle245d ago
I'd have gone for Stephen Welsh. What is the point in bringing him back if he isn't going to play? Way better than Murray too

Do you agree with Paddy's Celtic predicted starting XI to face Falkirk?

Why did we let Mawrowski go and while im at it who let Gordon go
ftgb1887163d ago
Who's Mawrowski?
Still off and on performances maeda has to b dropped and hatate both getting ball taken off them too easily ,look dissinteresred
callum_boyle263d ago
That Maeda performance is the perfect evidence that we need a striker

Would Celtic have won that game under Wilfried Nancy?
roncophotography163d ago
You wouldn't win a raffle under that waste of space.
smuddger1952262d ago
Haha! Wined up
fenian.pinguin263d ago
Not in his life time. Plus don't have to listen to the merde he comes out with.hh

Who deserves the man of the match from that win?
smuddger1952262d ago
At the wined up again !🤣
callum_boyle263d ago
I was impressed with Scales. Looked back to his best
jonathan.gorrie263d ago
Liked what I saw from Scales
Name one thing Celtic could do better this second half..

Rate the starting XI out of 10...
taylorc11263d ago
Again KS is terrible, he made saves that were directed straight at him. Several times he should have been taking crosses and alleviating the pressure
for Sinasolo should be in before Schmeichel and CalMac should always be in the middle. Strangely Hatate has been a bit off the pace but saying that Celtic always seem to play better when he is in the team. I’d like to try out swapping Maeda and Tounwkti over for a bit! Yang has come on to a game and I would most certainly hope he is given more game time.

Do you agree with Callum's predicted XI for the Falkirk game?
patcavanagh88263d ago
Engles dose not play center midfield

shillyshallyricardo4263d ago
Hatate is not up for it just now and maeda needs to pull hus socks up as well but usual suspects again
lynnfin123264d ago
Why not give sinisalo a go

Should Martin O'Neill start Stephen Welsh against Falkirk?
smuddger1952262d ago
Why not the guy would be better than trusty n scales phew! How long before the real defenders are back Falkirk should have horsed us
taylorc11263d ago
He would be an improvement on Trusty. Yet again we managed to survive his mistakes. He is not strong or decisive enough.
gordoh010860263d ago
Yes definitely I would never have sent him out on loan in the first place, same goes for Maik Nawrowski
I think the score against Falkirk will be...
