Moyes was there to watch a Barcelona player.
Jimmyquinnsbits…
Nail on head sir.
Barca were no more than decent tonight.
They won’t even make the semi finals in my opinion.

Like last year!
ryecatcher
What like Celtic last year you mean/
I get the impression that there are a few huns on tonight for a wee sly glot. Fair enough I would normally say but really any hun on here to have a laugh has to be kidding themselves on given thier club is died. So son’s of Sevco get ta f off this site and enjoy your run in the Ramsdens cup.
Notthebus, jinx.
Doc
Why not do it the Celtic way and spend two million on a six million pound man?

Neil Lennon: Barcelona were fantastic but we were very poor & nowhere near our previous performances against Barcelona
ltic Football Club @celticfc 18s
NL: There was no bravery on the ball, we started nervously & it seemed like the heads went down at 2-0. That’s something I need to address.
Jude
No sure mate but I’ll guess at a big fat zero?

Oooooh ad hominens!
I did not say I disagreed with your opinion, only that I did not recognise it as a fact.
But as I said, I know the difference, you obviously do not and you can blow that out of any orifice you like, it will still at the end of the day be an opinion.
Doc
Great Celtic minds and all that.
Appears some don’t know their history…..even from 12 months ago
jude2005 is Neil Lennon \o/

Mc Leod on Shortbread.
“Celtic getting a taste of their own medicine” Go for it Celtic your country is right behind you.
You`re right,Jude.
A sop to the huns from (someone who sounds like ) a hun.
The players clearly decided to take the heat off the GB.
Sammi looks more capable of water retention than ball retention these days?
Watching Tanner trying to line up the “no huns in the league, no competition” crap. Collins wips in with “forwards are expensive and you can’t just spend or you end up Rangers did” or words to that effect.

Every team in world football gets a hammering once in a while. Barca got absolutely horsed by Bayern last season, did they not? That was brutal tonight but it can happen. Barca were fantastic tonight and we were poor. We lick our wounds and come back out fighting.
God bless the Glasgow Celtic
Absolutely spot on!!
Every team gets hammered once in a while. Barcelona have hammered Leverkusen, Real Madrid and Ajax in recent memory. Bayern Munich have hammered Barcelona. Man United destroyed Arsenal a few years ago and Man City walloped Man United and Tottenham. It happens!!
Doesn’t make it any easier when it happens!!
I think NFL has got our tactics wrong in Europe this season as shown by results, in playing with 2 wide men ( won’t call them players), and poor formations, offering little protection for defence.
As already commented, we look slow and cumbersome at times.
But can I add we have several players earning in excess of £25k per week, there is better value for our spend out there for the positions they play, surely, and I believe we could attract better than those we have signed ( with exception of VVD)
Hugely frustrated and a really bad loser, even to Barca :-)
Canny wait for Saturday though, see the reaction
Hail Hail
Barcelona have every chance of making the semi finals.
They’ll get a preferential draw now and they will always get refereeing decisions other sides won’t. Mathews being booked tonight was a good example of that.
With Messi, Iniesta, Fabregas and others to come back into that side, they’re no a bad outfit.
Calling Celtic “Matalan” now is it?
What would you rather we did went out and spent crazy money we don’t have?
Prudence has its price for sure but financial profligacy? We don’t need to look too far to see where that gets you.
I’d far rather we took a thumping from time to time than jeopardised our unbroken history and our children’s inheritance in the club we love.
11% possession – win 2-1
32% possession – lose 6-1
Knew we were far too flamboyant tonight.
Celtic Football Club @celticfc 12s
NL: Only Lustig, van Dijk & Matthews could get pass marks & I’d also excuse the keeper. Rest of team was poor & below standard of previous years
Matthhews !!
BSR, they did that before! but it was £650,000 on a £20,000,000 mhan.
They come around once per generation though and we have done it.
Many frogs must be kissed before a Prince is found.
The CL, as a competition, is essentially beyond a team of our means. We might scrape through occasionally, but more often than not we make up the numbers in the groups whilst the teams from the “big” countries – backed by dodgy oil money and worse – saunter through.
Europa League is much more our level, yet UEFA seem to let that competition wither away whilst indulging the CL.
Not sure how we can change that. Although an analysis of this campaign will show many self-inflicted wounds.
Going forward we really need to sort out the transfer strategy. Why are we buying average players on big wages, then barely selecting them?
Very wasteful…
BSR
Let that be a lesson to you. Winning a football match is incompatible with scoffing a Dello’s ashet pie supper beforehand.
CWC
Yes, If we had been a little better our defeat would not have been as large.
HT
I wish I had been wrong too but the transfer money these clubs spend on top of the money they spend on youth development makes this a different level. Their back up 11 to their first 11, costs more than our first 11.
Jamesiebhoy
Haha.
Thought I’d escaped that.
NFL must be very frustrated knowing he can bring a player in and if he is any good the PLC will punt him at the first opportunity.
He may think sod it and move some place himself where he has no emotional investment and pick up a bigger pay cheque .
CQN infiltration fae the zombie nation. GNGB fellow Tims.

NL: it’s really tough to take. Barcelona are a very good side but we’re better than that & I’m angry & disappointed.
Ryecatcher/Doc,
also heard NL was off at the end of this season, but didn’t hear Wigan mentioned. Not goin to mention source.
I only say this cos of the jip ryecatcher getting for relaying gossip. A large part of the blog is gossip at the end of the day.
I don’t know whether to believe it or not, so will wait to see what happens.
At least we don’t have a rival team to laugh at us……

I agreed with that. They intimidated us in numbers and with energy which we failed to match in either aspect.
The why of that is what I would analysing.
Whilst I accept money can buy players of that extra energy I am not convinced that we cannot match that degree of application..
When they surrounded a player with three, why do we not put in four? Is it because we do not have to in the Scottish game?
Those are places we can improve with what we have, not moaning at what we have not.
If only we had a strong Rangers…………..
Madmitch back?He’s been here before.Where does the name come from Mitch? The ol’ Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders via Aden?It’s nights like this when Strangers In The Night should be the theme music.I still feel the set-up was incomprehensible,but–we are a Pot 4 team———at the moment!!
VVD would stroll into any team. If Holland don’t take him to Brazil then the Holland coach has not been watching.By the way,I agree on Biton.He’ll be a player,and Pukki, if played as a number 10 will be the same.
I watched the U19 game against Barca,and Celtic were superior in the first half,but again,fitness seemed to be the difference in the second half,along with the young Celtic goalie having a bit of a mare. Check back on Celtic TV.Lots to like about the young lads coming along.I’m away out for my pints after the Sky highlights.
Notthebus….
Matthews pass marks?…
Wtf?Bus pass marks
I know that tomorrow I have hertz fans on my desk trying to have a laugh :-0
Celtic Football Club @celticfc 1m
NL: Charlie had groin problem so wasn’t ready to start. We wanted pace down flanks to stop the full-backs going forward but it didn’t happen
