Killen and Smeltz.

Three for me, and two for them.

Killen and Smeltz.
Killen finally started for Celtic last night, played the full game and score the first goal.

I personally would find it so hard leaving wood out, he's playing and starting (not scoring goals though I guess) for the top championship side who are really playing some great stuff...

Normo's coming home

Fallon and Smeltz with Wood as "who the hell is he" type substitution. Killen for me has never really done the business for the AWs. That said, he's in the Celtic team, scored last night vs Hearts and if he keeps playing and scoring - and Fallon isn't doing either - then maybe you've got to pick him.
One thing's for sure, we've never had so many decent striking options and it's not something that's going to be a short-term thing; three are still relatively young and as for Wood, he's still a baby. Great position to be in.
Nix, Leyton Orient and Alloa Athletic supporting schmuck.

Killen and Smeltz...
Smeltz is red hot at the moment and Killen has the experience that we just might need . . .

Fallon's not getting much game time. Wonder how he'd look in Nix colours?

Perhaps a replacement for Chen when he goes back to Tianjin?

BTW it all depends on form at the time, if the first game was tomorrow I'd be really confused, Fallon just had a terrific debut, Killen and Wood scored and are looking good for their clubs and Smeltz is scoring for fun.

Looking at Celtic forums Killen, though he scored in the end, played terribly and missed a bunch of sitters. I've never really seen Killen play well before either. I'd have Smeltz and Fallon. Fallon doesn't score that many but I don't think that is what we need away from home anyway - I reckon he holds the ball up very well. valeo2009-09-22 10:05:03

It is tricky. Would go for 2 up front, with one maybe tracking back a little more. Smeltz is a definate for me (and just about everyone I think..). I would go for Wood to partner him at the moment from what I know / have heard of them.
