Ange Postecoglou named his side to take on Aberdeen this afternoon, and the Celtic fans gave their verdict.
With Rangers looking like securing a commanding victory at Livingston, Celtic need to respond. They have fallen to third in the league behind Hearts as well as Rangers, but they have two games in hand including today’s on the former.
Victory would see them move back to within four points of their arch rivals in the title fight, effectively making today a must win.
It will be hard to see Celtic recover a seven point deficit at this stage of the season with Rangers in imperious form.
What the Celtic fans had to say
“People complaining about McCarthy but where’s Forrest?” @briandal11
“Hope McCarthy has a great game after seeing some of these comments.” @GND1989
“McCarthy has been good when he’s come on as of late so hopefully puts a shift in.” @C_67_
“Why does it say McCarthy there?” @soroszn
“McCarthy, Turnbull and Abada need to up their games, they have been miles off the pace recently.” @sc32ie
“James McCarthy lmaooo, please sign some midfielders x” @Kyogoal
The fans were fuming with Postecoglou who decided to start James McCarthy, ripping into the decision while also being worried. Some were being a tad more optimistic but in the main it wasn’t good reading for McCarthy
The team is still strong and James Forrest is on the bench, Celtic will still be confident of a positive result as they prepare to welcome Aberdeen to Celtic Park
