it's a tough one for me to pick hence why I put the 2That’s two teams, and 16 players, minimum, in each.
Are you new to association rules?
Away tae fck manWe started Roofe ,Ramsey and Balogun against the filth at home when we lost a few weeks ago and we were found wanting so none of them should start , though they all may have a big part to play at some point the morra.
Mcgregor
Tav
Goldson
Bassey
Barisic
Jack
Lundstram
Kamara
Wright
Aribo
Kent
Ramsey and roofe to come on if needed
I think that is what the team will be. I would love Roofe to start but I don't see it.Mcgregor
Tav
Goldson
Bassey
Barisic
Jack
Lundstram
Kamara
Wright
Aribo
Kent
Ramsey and roofe to come on if needed
It's been tradition throughout this tournament that Gio's line up will have at least one big decision which I'm looking at thinking WTF is he playing at there. Said player then goes on to have a blinder, we record a famous result and I end up looking like a fanny.
More of the same tomorrow please.
After changing my mind a million times, I’d go with:
Kent Roofe Aribo
Kamara Lundstram Jack
Barašic Bassey Goldson Tavernier
McGregor
If Roofe doesn’t make it, Wright to come in and go on the right, with Aribo moving to the centre.
Yes that’s the team but only change I see is Wright starting over Ramsey.McGregor
Tav - Goldson - Lundstrum - Bassey - Barisic
Jack - Kamara
Ramsey - Aribo - Kent
Anyone else think this is how we will start?
Back 3 with Lundstrum - and FBs supporting forwards. Jack just in front of Back 3, mopping up and controlling passes. Kamara pushing forward and Aribo in False 9 role. With Kent coming off the left and Ramsey on the right. Possibly interchangeable.
I think this is how it will go. Gives flexibility in midfield. Only possible change that Gio May go with is starting Wright instead of Ramsey. Personally would not be starting Roofe. Just not had enough minutes - but a good option from the bench along with Fashion..
Thoughts bears?
Can't believe you went to all that trouble to get those letters right then spell it wrong
Ramsey.
If he does then I think Gio might have an eye on Kostic and will want Wright to track back and help Tav when needed.Should Wright be starting a Europa League Final? I'm no so sure.
That’s the team I would go forI’ve changed my mind again!
Kent Ramsey Aribo
Kamara Lundstram Jack
Bassey Balogun Goldson Tavernier
McGregor
Not if you can't run without pulling your hammy.Ramsey is a big game player. He was meant for games like this. No offence to Scott Wright but Ramsey is on another level.
On the bench and given the last 30 minutesI’m thinking my team in the OP might just be our starting line-up.
What’s everyone’s thoughts now that Roofe is confirmed as being fit?
He has improved dramatically under Gio but still looks out his depth in Europe. I think his work-rate may still get him a start over Ramsay and Sakala.Difficult to argue with that.
I've been giving Wright pelters on here for weeks. He was gash in the first leg vs. Red Bull. But his lay off for Kamara to get our 2nd in the Ibrox leg has maybe thrown him a wee lifeline.
I'd have him on the bench.
Balogun won’t start.I’m convinced it’ll be your second one. I just can’t see Roofe starting the game without getting any minutes over the last few weeks.
I’m concerned about Wright. He was out of his depth in the away game against RB. Couldn’t hold onto the ball and constantly lost possession.
I'd be inclined to start Kent on the right to help Tav with Kostic. His defensive running is sublime and his attacking threat could pin Kostic back a bit.If he does then I think Gio might have an eye on Kostic and will want Wright to track back and help Tav when needed.
