Celtic transform on triple substitutions

305
By on CQN BLOG & Comments

Celtic effortlessly disposed of newly promoted Kilmarnock on their dry plastic pitch yesterday.  Three goals up at halftime, the outcome was beyond doubt when Jota unleashed a spectacular effort from long range on 35 minutes, adding to the early strike from Kyogo.

If I was being picky……. We looked vastly better when Liel Abada, Giorgos Giakoumakis Aaron Mooy arrived on 66 minutes.  This could be because Kilmarnock were tiring, but I think this suggestion underplays the impact the change had in allowing Callum McGregor to move forward, Giorgos to disrupt his opponents and Liel to turn defenders.

Earlier in the game possession was lost carelessly, allowing Kilmarnock to get into the final third, a scenario that stopped abruptly at the triple substitution.  We are playing well and winning games, but Ange has some big selection decisions to make if he is to collect 6 points in the next two games.

    A sociopath can no more help being a sociopath than you can help been dyslexic.

     

     

    It’s not a personal choice.

     

     

    Agreed?

    OMG — busy this morning.

     

     

    I am old school — scooters have two wheels.

     

    They need balance and physical engagement to make them go.

     

     

    I come on here for football chat / history / opinions.

     

    As noted previously there is not a lot of it about at the moment.

     

     

    I am human so the old pointed comment / wind up might escape.

     

    I fear I may have to stop as you don’t even have to bait the hook now.

     

    They jump onboard and howl at the moon.

     

    The hard work is throwing them back.

     

     

    Now for the football — MoJ is showing promise but he is as raw as sushi.

     

    Not sure I think he is up to the CL this season — not the Sept game anyway.

     

     

    Politics — follow the money / the electricity forward contracts market is being gamed as we speak. The industry is fighting with itself which in a tight market is driving prices higher on a feedback loop.

     

     

    Maggie / JH the civil servant guru — amateur hour understanding of how markets work.

     

    They sound good but laziness and greed mean that if they can be manipulated they will be manipulated — and then you add the “unexpected” external force.

     

     

    There — and no mention of the mythical £49 ticket.

     

    Oh no — look what I have just done.

    Not much of a history on here so best of luck selling your Greatest Hits collection.

     

    If I were you I would steer clear of direct sunlight — very thinned skinned.

    ……………..

     

    So, MAD BITCH MAY have committed a ” HATE CRIME” yesterday when MOCKING ME and my Disability need for a Mobility Scooter ?

     

    Maybe I should make a complaint to the COPS ? They would soon track him down. That would allow him to TRY and ” WIND UP” The Polis.

    Al I wanted was a beer …

     

    But the self appointed CQN Beer Ghod / Ghods said no.

     

    What is a poor guy supposed to do in the face of such cruel / hard hearted rejection?

     

     

    Plan B is to borrow some golf clubs …

     

    I have more chance of some snooker cues but I will give it a go.

    No mobility scooters were mocked in the making of any comment.

     

     

    I suggested that a particular CQN personality type — high maintenance / bullet magnet — would struggle to operate an old school two wheeled type.

     

     

    What is the Hollywood get out clause?

     

     

    No real people were involved in the story and any resemblance to real persons, dead or alive, or other real-life entities, past or present, is purely coincidental.

     

     

    Lawyers — don’t you just love them.

    I’ve been called worse — but it still hurts you know.

     

    No matter onwards and upwards.

     

     

    Pages to write.

     

    Slow start.

    Might be a bit controversial but I thing GG should be playing ahead of Kyogo right now.

     

     

    Kyogo has notched 2 goals which involved good team play and his quick movement. All good.

     

     

    Over the course of the games so far, i’ve not seen the constant movement of last season; spending a lot of time marked this season. The passes are subsequently not on and he gets hardly any touches.

     

     

    GG is looking for the ball at all times and seems full of confidence. He made great space on Sunday but the passes didn’t come. I think if he had started, Turnbull and O’Riley would have picked him out a lot in the first half.

     

     

    Also, this Sunday (still annoyed I’ll miss it!) it might be worth starting Mooy as the anchor and McGregor LM. Hearts will fight in midfield and I’d like us to win that battle before finishing them off

    Can yo get help with your patter of the interweb?

    Too easy ..

     

    All too easy.

     

    Not a challenge anymore.

     

     

    Never was to be honest — Pavlov’s dog has more self control.

    From early doors. Not trying to belittle the experience of Stan Petrov in the early part of his Celtic career, more to show that there are different ways forward. And bhoy did he find his in a Celtic shirt, one of the best midfielders ever to don the hoops. Certainly the club did not demonstrate much in the way of being a good employer, but he found his own way through.

    GG from the off is SPL mainstream — he is just that bit better.

     

    KF stretching the game / using his pace is Flybogel / prunes to SPL defences.

     

    That is different

     

     

    The main thing is to try and find space.

     

    Killie pushed up when we faltered in the first half.

     

    Big mistake.

    Ignore the skank.its a homer.

    Nothing.

    Oh I no you weren’t,:-(it is something we must always improve on,player welfare.i have no doubt there are bumps along the way,I think its moved since Stan days, if Stan signed today the burger van would not be an option,but I hope they gather and support Bernerei as fanadpatriot points is not the first.

    Obviously you are correct but why did you feel the need to post that?

     

     

    Please note, any form of `Because I wanted to educate.` would be hard to believe.

    Time for another CQN hiatus for me I think.

     

     

    Paul67 – love your articles. Don’t always agree with them but that is a good thing. However, while I appreciate you’re not responsible for the comments and there has to be as much freedom to ‘speak’ freely as possible, the overall experience of CQN ain’t what it was. I’d include in that the omnipresent ads and a few functional issues – I could live with those but the never ending trolling from some has had what i think is the desired effect by those responsible and I think I’ve had enough of it.

     

    It used to be you could read the good stuff and skip the odd daft one. It’s now sifting through the daft to try and find the decent stuff.

     

     

    There were a few really good post match pages of contributions on Sunday but that was but a fleeting moment of positivity.

     

     

    Don’t know what’s to be done in all honesty. Maybe it’s just the nature if the Internet.

     

     

    Anyway, I’m aff oot and I may be sone time.

     

     

    All the best.

    I do wish posters would differentiate between the site and a small group of imbeciles when commenting on falling standards on the Blog.

    Re the young left back

     

     

    While I know he should not be driving when over the limit, I don’t believe there should be a witch-hunt to end his career at Celtic.

     

    Yes, he seems to have done something stupid but he is not the first and won’t be the last.

     

     

    The important thing now is that he gets help through this to come out the other side and make a go of his career.

     

     

    Some others, one in particular in recent memory, were given chance after chance, kept letting us down but were hailed as heroes.

     

     

    This youngster needs a chance.
