When the injured players are back Celtic will actually have a pretty strong line up. Like with Jota being back would he replace Tounekti ? Would Carter-Vickers replace Trusty ? I’ll answer them all right now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

So in my opinion would Jota replace Tounekti ? It’s a very hard one Tounekti creates chances and plays well overall. In the other hand Jota scores goals and also creates chances plays great overall. See Tounekti is younger and Jota is older. But honestly I’d start Jota over Tounekti then sub Tounekti in on the like 75th minute. And Jota is calm under pressure has great decision making and is better overall. Yeah so i would start Jota over Tounekti. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Cameron<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Now would Carter- Vickers start over Auston Trusty. This is another very hard one but i would start Carter-Vickers to be honest. See Trusty is still very good it’s just Carter-Vickers is better. Trusty is good at passing, headers , and tackles. Carter-Vickers is good at Headers, Passes , Decision making , defending and getting back. So you can see Carter-Vickers is just better at more traits. And Carter-Vickers is just so strong like he never really falls down. So yeah I’d start Carter-Vickers over Auston Trusty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Celtic<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"Celtic's<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

So Schmeichel or Sinisalo ? I mean if you’re a proper fan you’d know Schmeichel is very old now and he can’t dive that much anymore but on the other hand Sinisalo is young, Superb keeper, Great reflexes, and great decision making overall Sinisalo is superb while Schmeichel is too old. I think Sinisalo is a brilliant keeper I think give him the number 1 right now. So no real hesitation in that desicion really. And I would be dissapionted if Martin O’Neill starts Schmeichel over Sinisalo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Martin<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Callum Osmand is also injured but there’s no way he’s starting over Maeda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Good<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Mongomery is injured due to a Calf injury. But Kieran Tierney has the left back position. So he wouldn’t start. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
