Celtic manager Wilfried Nancy has named his team for this evening’s Scottish Premiership meeting with Dundee United. The Frenchman has lost his first three games since arriving from Columbus Crew and he will need to get a win tonight to get fans back onside.
Whilst much of the pre-match buildup has been about Peter Lawwell’s resignation from his role as Chairman, the focus will firmly shift to Tannadice. The manager has made a number of changes but looks to continue with his preferred 3-4-3 formation.
Kasper Schmeichel will start.
In defence, expect a back three of Kieran Tierney, Auston Trusty and Tony Ralston.
In midfield, Callum McGregor and Reo Hatate start with Maeda and Yang on the wings. Paulo Bernardo and Luke McCowan start in the attacking midfield areas.
Johnny Kenny starts through the middle.
Subs: Sinisalo, Simpson-Pusey, Scales, Nygren, Shin, Engels, Murray, Forrest and Donovan.
The bench is particularly weak but there should be enough to get beyond Jim Goodwin’s side. The hosts will be smelling blood, especially after the weekend.
This looks different, which is welcome considering how we’ve played for the last couple of months. Good that he’s dropped Scales who was keech on Sunday. Hopefully that’s a policy of his and one that previous managers haven’t applied. If you’re shite you’re out the next game. Simples.
