First off, happy Friday gents
Anyone up to much this weekend?
I'll be attending the game tomorrow in what is sure to be a party atmosphere after our result on Wednesday night.
No indication as yet whether many players will be rested etc. but I'd be amazed if the likes of Griffiths and Simunovic are starting tomorrow. I know we are effectively through against Astana but I'd still like us to be fresh and win the game to keep the momentum going.
Killie will more than likely give us a tougher game than they did in the cup meeting so I'm not expecting as many changes either.
I'd go with this:
Gordon
Ralston
Biton
Ajer
KT
Brown
Ntcham
Hayes
McGregor
Sinclair
Forrest
Armstrong could also get a starting slot if he signs his new deal today, might give him a boost and go on to have a worldy of a game
Early start tomorrow, plenty of beers to be consumed

That's why the real action is in the Championship, with the big game this week being the big, ahem, derby game between league leaders Dundee United and Angus, ahem, rivals, ahem, Brechin.

I heard there is a bit of beef between the teams

All the excitement in the Premiership is in the same place as it's been for years - who's going to finish 2nd.
The fact you've got Aberdeen, Rangers and Hibs looking strong, with the potential for Hearts to improve (unlikely) and St Johnstone always getting the odd result, means they're all going to cut each others throats, which could end up making them finish on lower points totals than last year. Ultimately there isn't a great deal between Aberdeen, Rangers and Hibs.
Celtic will romp it. They won't get as many points as last year, but they'll still easily win the league. I'd be happy to bet they'd win it before the split.

One player who will definitely play tomorrow is Ajer - plenty of experience on that plastic pitch and Jozo won't be risked on it, rightly so
NNH - agree about Hendo being out of the picture and I have already posted on here that he will probably leave at the end of August. However, with Kouassi injured, having the midfield that I posted, with Liam in the number 10 slot (he continues to train with the first team squad), would mean we could still rest the entire midfield ahead of the Astana trip .
That said I would have the likes of Lustig, Broony, Oli and Griff on the bench just in case.....

Thought Ryan Jack was Aberdeens best player? Being captain - sure that was the logic used by some when you signed him. So now Hayes is the better player. Good we got clarification 👍

Who said Ryan Jack was Aberdeens best player?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
As I said - some bears. I didn't say you, or all Rangers supporters.
And the logic used was that he was Aberdeens captain and therefore their best player

I genuinely don't understand why you are so keen to concede so early
------------------------------------------------------
Not keen to concede at all. I would love us to be genuinely in the mix.
I am just being realistic.
There is no way we are going to challenge for the title this season.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You all think you're going to win it this year. Don't give us any of that nonsense. Bruno, Bruno.

On that subject...pedro has an enormous gap between his nose and his top lip. Imagine the size of moustache you would need to fill that. Have a look. It would be like a cartoon effort.
