  1. Moonbeam, can totally get that ML holding it down but always injury prone or else emergency CB.

     

     

    Still think we need an out and out defender to lead the team Kolo doing very well but need to bolt the back door

    Scott Sinclair is a player born to play for Celtic (or maybe Brendan) who cares we have him, would love Paddy R to sign king term as they are both good for James F

     

     

    You canny gave enough fitballers

  3. TCR

     

     

    Completely in agreement with your assessment. We desperately need real quality in the central midfield area.

     

    Also Sinclair is real quality, so impressed with everything about him. You know how highly Brendan rates him to put him straight in against Hearts. Apart from his obvious attributes, lightning speed and quality on the ball, his movement in between the lines and into space is different class, and his work rate as well is brilliant. Once him and Paddy are firing it will be a treat.

    Long time bugbear of mine,that.

     

     

    Two central,one wide,another halfway up our half. Leaves us seven in our box. Take out the five to mark them,the corner taker and their keeper,we are 7v4.

     

     

    Effectively WE are attacking THEIR corner.

  5. far far too many passes across the back ,why do we have to make as many passes when a more penetrating ball into feet up front would be more beneficial

  6. New RB with Kolo, Sveichenko and Tierny and it’s a pretty solid 4. With ML for a 3 if and when required.

     

     

    I’ll be greedy though and also request a hard as nails, no messing, ball winning, simple passing midfielder in the mould of NL and a Paul Lambert please. Thanks.

  7. If you had P McStay in this team foot on the ball and ozing composure what a sight that would be

    Thought that lad Wes Burns gave us a lot of bother today.

     

    Good quick feet and very strong.

  9. Lustig was so poor today, for their goal, when the guy got the ball he has got to go and get tight, he stood off and gave the guy a run on him. Horrible defending. He can’t move his legs quick enough, it’s been a problem for over a year and it needs dealt with. All teams that play against us know it’s an obvious weakness and will target that area.

    If you are looking in, wondered if you managed to get to the game today and how you were keeping?

    Toor a loo 11.24pm

     

     

    If Paul McStay was in that team ……….don’t get me started

     

     

    Paul “the maestro” McStay was the best I ever witnessed GRACing the hoops , my Celtic favourite by a country mile

  12. Saint Stivs

     

     

    Weaknesses.

     

     

    I believe we suffer because of what our players can get away with here.

     

     

    Be sloppy in possession?

     

    Ach……its ok……we will get it straight back anyway.

     

     

    Don’t work on the defensive aspects of the game?

     

    Ach…….they will either miss or we will score more than them anyway.

     

     

    I wonder if there’s a wee bit of a lazy attitude towards certain aspects of the game from some of our players.

     

     

    Playing in better leagues these guys know that they cannot afford to be like that or they will get punished, so it probably becomes a minimum requirement that even the forwards know how to work defensively.

     

     

    Loved Toure today as well for setting off a few rockets in the direction of players(Bitton and Dembele?)that he felt should have been doing more.

     

     

    I think we should have minimum criteria for

  13. Gerry fae….

     

     

    Knowadays it’s Rae to see a player who took a grip of games the way he did

    When a footballer can’t move his legs quick enough that’s no the best !

     

     

    Lustig is no right back, solid enough at centre half but never a full back

  15. Tricoloured Ribbon on

    MWD,

     

    Being greedy?

     

    Not at all D.

     

    A new right back is needed urgently and the opposition know it.

     

    Lustig is far,far too weak.

     

    Hapoel Be’er Sheva knew it and so did Aberdeen.Fortunately Aberdeen weren’t good enough to capitalise.

     

    Two mids in now pal and we are rocking.

     

    Millions available.

     

    Oh,I’ll be greedy.Another striker.

     

    Take care Dan.

    Playing the ball across the back is fine 30 yards out to halfway in your own half to draw out opposition. Today we attempted it far too often on or inside our own box with Broony withdrawing into the area leaving few options to get back out. A very dangerous tactic.

     

     

    Our players obviously need to learn this basic flaw.

  17. Saint Stivs says SACK THE BOARD on

    i thought toure blasted the players around him who did not get close to the players for aberdeen goal.

     

     

    a leader, experience,

     

     

    i am looking forward t him scoring a goal

  18. oops……ach……baw baws required.

     

     

    Stand up for the Champions(except you Toor a loo!)

     

     

    Enjoy the rest of your night bhoys.

    Don’t get me started as a young bhoy he scored on his old firm debut, scored at pittodrie and was pretty dam amazing, but I love the fact he stayed when the BoS sponsored mob were cheating their way to titles, once the cheats got 9… Johnny 6 pack Collins fcuked to Monaco on a bosman saying if “we” won the league I would have stayed……eh ? Celtic fan face Galashiels……

     

     

    The maestro stayed and Paul McStay will always be number one in my household

    Did ye miss yer wee Escort when you were on the bus earlier?

  22. Quick ratings for today before bed,

     

     

    DDV – 5 not much to do but one really poor pass could have been costly

     

    Lustig – 3 awful

     

    Erik – 6 ok, didn’t do enough with the ball in first half took easy option too often

     

    Kolo – 6 solid enough

     

    KT – 6 lacking a wee something but still ok

     

    Brown – 4 operating on fumes, poor

     

    Bitton – 3 very poor, gave ball away too often, lucky not to be booked

     

    Forrest – 6 good goal but quiet overall

     

    Rogic – 8 superb

     

    Sinclair – 9 MOM outstanding

     

    Griffiths – 7 great goal

  23. Gerryfaethebrig on

    Toor a loo

     

     

    You touched a nerve with our Paul, one of the most talented players to don the hoops, he is my number 1

     

     

    After the GB giving a bit of Grace today surely it’s only a matter of time for a wee bit of

     

     

    The Town I Loved So Well……

     

     

    No hatred just nice wee tunes

  24. Tricoloured Ribbon on

    The Tim Reaper,

     

    Surely Brendan can see Lustig is rapidly becoming an absolute liability?

     

    Shocking passer of the ball too.

     

    Before anyone jumps in I am basing his perfomances against ordinary European opposition.

     

    We desperately need a new solid right back.
