Rogic in, Brown out - Celtic fans predict line-up for Aberdeen clash

Celtic fans are desperate to see Tom Rogic start against Aberdeen after his cameo against Milan.

The midfielder came on in the second half in the Euorpa League and looked the best he's been in a long time after a series of injury and fitness issues.

He looked dangerous on the ball as Celtic sparked a second half revival against the Serie A side.

It will certainly give Neil Lennon food for thought for their trip to Pittodrie.

But fans want to see the Aussie from the start against the Dons after back-to-back defeats against Rangers and Milan.

That means there would be no place in the side for Hoops skipper Scott Brown.

Supporters also want the Parkhead boss to change to a 4-2-2 formation as Celtic looked far more effective with four at the back after the break on Thursday night.

They would like to see Vasilis Barkas in goals and a back four of Jeremie Frimpong, Shane Duffy, Kris Ajer and Diego Laxalt.

A midfield four of Ryan Christie, Mohamed Elyounoussi, Calum McGregor and Rogic, with Leigh Griffiths and Albian Ajeti up front.

Celtic fans' predicted XI: Barkas, Frimpong, Laxalt, Duffy, Ajer, Christie, Elyounoussi, McGregor, Rogic, Griffiths, Ajeti.
