Having Robo and Maloney with Naka means that the defense can't expect one guy to take the free kick! Robo has been great this offseason on set pieces, but you are right.

Naka is obviously #1, but Robson and Maloney should push him for free kicks in certain areas of the field, and could be helpful as decoys. Oh yeah, what about the battle for set pieces?

So I guess that signifies the end of the Killen era eh? That goal was a rocket, remember it well! So I guess that signifies the end of the Killen era eh?

Not to mention, the Polish team desperately need him, but a more refreshed Holy Goalie certainly helps us. I think you might be right about Maloney playing off of JVOH. We all know Strachan loves the 4-5-1 and is itching to use it. I just hope he doesn't give up on Skippy too soon. It's only been two games and the guy scored 30 goals last year.

It'll be good to have Maloney back so Celtic don't have to push a central midfielder wide when Naka or McGeady is missing. But how do they get everybody in the team? My guess is that if Skippy doesn't recpature last year's form we may see JVoH as a true target man with Maloney playing off of him. The Boruc thing is absurd. A curfew after a match and before you go back to your club? Treating adults like children will cause them to act like children. They do have depth at kepper though with Kuszczak and Fabianski, and it took a massive error from Kuszczak for Boruc to grab the #1 jersey for himself. Hopefully this turns out well and he gets his spot back because he loves representing his country. I’m finally getting to watch a match this weekend, so I’m hoping to see one of those 4-0 scorelines.
