I dont want to get carried away with a draw away from home to the second top side in the Dutch league but I have been saying the panic after the Aberdeen which I believe was manufactured by the MSM was crazy.Ronny is rebuilding our back four and it is going to take games together to get a comfortable performing back four.He knows what he wants and will stick to his guns to achieve it and next season for the CL qualifyers we should have a settled back four and I really believe Ronny knows what he is doing. H.H.
Problem I guess with Commons is that he’s in all likelihood in his last productive year, and maybe even then he’ll be struggling to have the same level of fitness.
I guess that’s why we brought in Allan (who it’s disappointing not to have seen more of but he hasn’t set the heather alight when he has been on) and Christie who I think has excellent vision, one thing we lack from the middle of the park.
Alternatively get a striker who can head the ball and rely more on cross balls.
I heard he was dead on
I don’t think Izzy should have had a second yellow but he could have had one seconds earlier.
He played very well when he was on the pitch and should not be scapegoated for not getting a win.
He should be smarter in that situation and know that the crowd and their players know he’s on a yellow.
He will be a miss vs Fenerbache but if Celtic beat them it’s a chance to put them well on the back foot in the group.
Imagine if Celtic and Molde both go through.
I’d like that.
Celtic and anyone except Ajax and then we can tell One’s called Ronald, one’s called Frank no one in Europe cares about Ajax anymore.

“Celtic pegged back in Amsterdam” cries BBC Sport > Scotland > Football.
Aye right – why don’t they just say:
“Ajax thwarted by rugged efforts of stubborn team that somehow finished top of last season’s division that is, incredibly, ranked above THE SCOTTISH CHAMPIONSHIP.”
praecepta on
Would have taken a draw before a ball was kicked away from home in the opening game v the top seeds – likewise when we were reduced to 10 men.
Pity for Izzy thought he had played well up to the red – maybe trying a bit too hard (proving his worth) and so justifying his return to the side. Both bookings typical of Italian refereeing.
Thought Criag a bit unlucky with their second – how many times have you seen a free-kick played in to the 6-yard box and everyone (defenders & attackers) all miss a great delivery. More often than not – the GK is caught flat footed and the ball ends up in the net and the taker gets credited with a great goal when in fact it was lucky.
Lustig a bit unfortunate – on the end of some rough treatment with little interest from the ref. Thought Efe acquitted himself well when he came on.
If Commons despite his pace is the brains (1st goal) then we can’t afford poor contributions from JF&JH – the team can only support one player who is not exactly workmanlike but makes a difference.
Overall a good position – 3 home wins will see us through to last 32.
Decidedly more happy than I was over the weekend and pre-match!

also , why not play forrest on his favoured right side – would also have provided the protection and unfit lustig clearly needed . worried about our management team but desperately want them to succeed !
I too desperately want them ( RD et al ) to succeed but I worry when he says ” Jamesie did very well” that is not true,his contribution from an attacking sense made one opening LG should have converted,other than that watching him avoid getting involved was painful,I cannot see what this guy brings to the team,he neither consistently attacks and never defends,not just Ajax,every game,we cannot afford passengers,so from that standpoint I do not see what Ronnie see’s.
Compare the effort Johnny Hayes puts in for Aberdeen,90 mins non stop,reminds me of Johnny Doyle.
the glorious balance sheet on
Good performance and fine result tonight which made a mockery of my prediction that we would get pumped 3-0.
If you watch the game back check the look that Broony gives izzy after he has been sent off. I would not want to be izzy having to face Broony in that dressing room at full time!

What is indefensible in my opinion is the rush to rubbish Ronny as the worst celtic manager (since the last one) after a few bad results. You might think it and plenty have said it but do the rest of us need to hear it?

Travelbhoy on
I think some just have to whinge to be able to survive – I saw a Celtic team play as a team and fight all the way. I feckin hate negative keech.
Izzy? Playing the way everyone on here wanted yet he is panned for doing so?
Such bollox.
Ronnie not only selected KC but stuck with him for 83 minutes – how many bullshit managers on here predicted that move from an imminently sackable manager?
Great result – of course disappointing when you are up and then reduced to 10 men – but short term memory folk remember we had no chance in this game.
But only if you read the crap that half-wit redtop slobs write.
Fener – good luck in 2 weeks – hope you find your own version of hell in Paradise . Another mega-expensive squad that isn’t a team? Lets hope so.
Love Celtic.

Celtic have always been a selling club – Kenny dalglish, Lou macari, Davie hay and so on..so your point is?
Surely the Honourable John Reid was not being economical with the actualities when a few years ago he proclaimed that Celtic was not a selling club.
