Brendan Rodgers has virtually a full strength squad to pick from for Saturday’s visit to Ross County.
Speaking at today’s media conference the Irishman explained that Tony Ralston is the only first team player ruled out through injury.
???? Brendan Rodgers confirmed the only unavailable players for this weekend’s game against @RCFCStaggies are @anthonyralston8 [injury] and @Tom_Rogic, who is yet to return from international duty.

That means that Jozo Simunovic, Erik Sviatchenko and Patrick Roberts are all available for selection.
At the club AGM on Wednesday Rodgers agreed with a shareholder over his concerns about injury prone central defenders with Sviatchenko out of action since the start of August and Simunovic since the end of September.
The return of both men will provide the hoops boss with some options over the next couple of weeks while Roberts appears to have made a very quick recovery from the hamstring injury he picked up against Kilmarnock on October 28.
Tom Rogic won’t be available against Ross County with the midfielder not expected back at Lennoxtown until Friday after international duty in Sydney.
