CL vs. Celtic [eventual R]

[Syncope]

Missing for sure are Deisler and Jeremies. As Texan mentioned in the Wolfsburg thread, Pizarro, Sagnol, Ballack, and Ze Roberto are questionable to highly questionable.

Ever more questionable :mad: is Elber's sale, who scored a beautiful goal against Auxerre. One more injury up front and we'll see Zickler on the pitch with crutches...

[miko]

Celtic have a lot of injuries as well. During their win at the weekend against Dundee quite a few of their players got injured.

[Basti]

I have a feeling we are going to lose this one which is going to be the catalyst for us being knocked out of the CL again :(

... hopefully we can get a good result on tuesday

I too still don't understand Elber's sale

[bayernfan1]

elber was sold because of the arrogance of our big mouthed general manager Uli hoeness. I hate this guy with a passion and can't wait till he leaves this wonderful club in 2006.

I think it’s good that there is little confidence going into the Celtic game. Last year everyone was talking about the best team ever, and I agreed with that. Overconfidence led to demise last year.
What’s up with Demichelis? Is he fit?

[olafgb]

Hitzfeld doesn't include Demichelis into the rotation system in the defence. Nobody really understands that, but he relies on Linke, Kovac and Kuffour only.

Ulrik Laursen and Paul Lambert are out. And Joos Valgaeren, Steve Guppy and Johan Mjalby are all questionable.

[miko]

My source tells me Paul Lambert and defender Stephen Crainey are definetly out, with Joos Valagaeren, Johan Mjallby & Ulrik Laursen all doubtful. If all those players missed the game, Celtic's defense would be severely weakend.

[Fkesoccer]

My Prediction:

FCB 2 Celtic 0

Pizarro
Makaay

[Texan]

Scholl is now out 3 weeks with a torn hamstring. :(

Another heart-stopper match. Lucky we were, considering all the chances missed (on both sides). I'll take the three points.

[Texan]

You were dead-on in the "My Bayern Dream" thread. If we are to go far in the CL this year, a commanding centerback is a must during the winter transfer window.

[Basti]

All I can say is
Makaay's first goal: WOW!!!
and his second: HUH??

haha I am so relieved, I thought Celtic were going to steal a win in Munich

Willy Sagnol played very well in my opinion

[olafgb]

From kicker:

Kahn 4.5 – Sagnol 2.5, Kovac 3, Linke 3, Lizarazu 4 – Salihamidzic 5, Hargreaves 3.5, Ballack 3, Ze Roberto 4 – Makaay 2, Pizarro 4.5

Hedman 4 – McNamara 3.5, Balde 3, Varga 3 – Agathe 3.5, Petrov 3.5, Sutton 4, Lennon 3, Thompson 3 – Hartson 4.5, Larsson 4

Chances: 9-3
Ref: 2
Game Rating: 3 (where have they been in the first half? ;))
Player of the Game: Roy Makaay

[miko]

God, Salihamidzic played bad.:( But importantly, we won.:)

I’d like to see Demichelis before signing anyone else
