And Shaun Maloney is an excellent set piece taker. He isn't as good as Nakamura at shooting, but he is very good at putting the ball into dangerous areas.

Won't the LB (Fox?) by taking a lot of the set pieces?

Some of them.

Maloney took the vast majority of them against Aberdeen, though.

 

[Firestarter]

They aren't that bad (this is actually shaping up to be quite a good Celtic team), but they aren't close to Arsenal's level.

They also lack the ability to lock a game down, they will play with a lot of width and try and get the wingers one-on-one with your fullbacks.

Their CBs are slow, their fullbacks are mediocre and they are vulnerable at set pieces.

McGeady still lacks end product and Sagna and Clichy are both miles better than anything he faces in the SPL.

McGeady even struggles to make an impact when Aberdeen face up to him properly.

Absolutely, you've probably seen Celtic play far more often than me anyways, btw Sanga will miss the game. Gibbs is a left back, so I wouldn't be surprised to see Gallas at right-back, and then Djourou slotting in the middle.

Thanks Aushim. It's been a while since me and you talked upcoming talents from the Ligue

Indeed, far far too long! Can't wait for the new season should be good! Btw, I immediately thought of you reaction when Gomis signed for Lyon we've been discussing him for ages now

Wait, Clichy and Sagna are both out?

 

[abejaa]

what about Fiorentina, do you guys think that they will beat sporting, They have a good team now... Gila, Mutu, marchioni (i think he will do well there) and Zanneti (i hope he does great there) I already miss him!

 

[The Curr]

I don't know much about Sporting at all but I imagine La Viola should beat them.

Sagna I believe from tele, I think Chichy should be playing.

I don't know much about Sporting at all but I imagine La Viola should beat them.

This game will definately be tough for Fiorentina.

how long until Arsenal game, 3 hrs?

 

[Bjerknes]

Yes, three hours.

I don't like Celtic, but I'd rather see them progress through. That way, Arsenal can focus on the Prem.

 

[The Curr]

how long until Arsenal game, 3 hrs?

Yep.

 

[abejaa]

They have potential, and they have a great keeper, they can count on him... I pray the go through, i want 4 italian teams... Even though they'll have problems in passing the group

I've only seen Mowbray's Celtic once, so I don't know much more than everyone else.

I don't like Celtic, but...nope, no 'but' there; I just plain dislike them.

 

[The Curr]

I've seen them in that match and in the friendly against Al Ahly in Wembley.

I'm the expert here people

I'd expect an Irishman to be an expert on Celtic.

 

[abejaa]

I don't like celtik, But i'd love if Arsenal does not manage to go through, So i can watch a game in champions league...
Cos in malaysia ESPN all they show is fucking engilsh teams even if they play a shit team like Maccabi, or some teams from Romania, or whatever countries they are...

even though there could be a great game, like Juve Vs barca, or Bayern Vs madrid or whatever...

TEAMS Celtic v Arsenal

Celtic: Boruc, Hinkel, Caldwell, Loovens, Daniel Fox, N'Guemo, Scott Brown, Donati, Maloney, McGeady, Samaras. Subs: Zaluska, Naylor, McDonald, Fortune, Flood, McCourt, O'Dea.

Arsenal: Almunia, Sagna, Vermaelen, Gallas, Clichy, Song Billong, Fabregas, Denilson, van Persie, Arshavin, Bendtner. Subs: Mannone, Diaby, Eduardo, Ramsey, Silvestre, Eboue, Gibbs.


4-2-3-1 for Celtic. Sagna and Fabregas play for Arsenal.

Arsenal will have to be aware of Scott Brown getting forward from midfield.

 

[Byrone]

Im assuming that youre only watching this match in the hope that Arsenal mirrors their weekend performance against Celtic.

 

[Red]

I haven't even decided if I'll watch Arsenal v Celtic or Sporting v Fiorentina yet.
