  1. If Eddie is so valuable to us doesn’t it make sense to give him a rest when we can?

     

     

    If we still win 3-0 I don’t see any problem with changing our formation to accommodate it.

     

     

    Today was the easiest game we’ll have in weeks.

  2. 🎙️ Neil Lennon: ”

     

    @Oedouard22 had an x-ray last night and his foot was in a boot. We were concerned he wouldn’t do the 90 minutes but he looked fresh and had an incredible impact. He should be okay for Wednesday.” #CELROS #SPFL

     

     

    Good grief. We’re one big team of walking wounded….

  3. Really disappointing to hear the comments about today’s performance or lack of it. We appear flat and rudderless and the break was meant to solve that. I don’t understand our tactics or some of the selections or the point of paying good money for guys and they don’t get a run. I don’t understand why with two wingers and two wing backs playing we keep funnelling inside and we don’t cross the ball. Lastly I don’t understand why we don’t roar out of the tunnel land/or the huddle and tear into teams and frighten the life out of them. games like this against opposition struggling in the league should be all but over at half time giving us then the opportunity to rest players, bed players in, introduce youngsters etc. We do none of these things and to me it’s not difficult it’s pretty basic stuff. Come on Celtic let’s get a bit of purpose about us

  4. Its extremely important we get to the game at Ibrox with our best players in the best physical shape possible.

     

     

    2 games a week until then, we need to have them take breaks when we can

  5. Neil Lennon: “We’re not sure @JeremieFrimpongn will be fit for Wednesday but it’s not bad and isn’t going to be long term.”

     

     

    mmmmmm. Feels like we’ve been there before.

  6. The Blogger Formerly Known As GM on

    Not sure what to make of that. The game could have been out of our reach by half time had we been playing a half decent team.

     

     

    Hats off to Foster, Julien, Brown and McGregor, who play at a good level every week, but if Eddy’s not firing, Celtic are not firing.

     

     

    Bauer and Hayes were dreadful today. Forest and Johnson picked up where they left off against Sevco.

     

     

    To win this league we need to get El Hamed and Elyanoussi back to fitness asap. We need to sort out the left back position and sign a right sided midfielder.

  7. Maybe I’m just old school but 2 strikers for me.

     

    Left back/right back… First and foremost is to defend your position, if and when the option arises go up the flank and ffs put in a decent cross, then get your arse in gear to be where our defensive problems are coming from.

     

     

    Too many times are we getting caught out with gaps on our wings.

     

    A blind man and his dug can see it.

  8. Just back from game, a tough watch in the first half but 3 points in the end.

     

     

    Neil needs to find a settled 11 and system pronto as this swapping personell and systems is doing ma nut in😂 although a 3-0 win would seem to contradict my point, but it was only when Eddie came on that we looked a lot sharper.

     

     

    We move onto St Johnstone and another tough away day.

  9. Go tell the Spartim on

    If those in charge can’t see we need another CB then they need chased

     

    FB’s were rank too but we’ve managed to get Jozo some game time (that’s the only positive about him, by the time he’s match sharp he’ll be injured) on current form he’s a liability

     

     

    Ffs we don’t need another winger, JF is out of form, MJ if he’s gonna make it he needs loaned out get some game awareness he looks like a wee boy still (which he is).

     

     

    In conclusion, these games at this time are about winning, March time we can dazzle on better pitches, but we need more than another winger

  10. James McClean is a player I’d love to see in the hoops. Really good attitude and not a little skill. Wouldn’t be overawed by the pressure.

  11. CQNPOTY

     

    Edouard for coming off bench and lighting up a gloomy Celtic Park.

     

    Calum for his metronomic ability to find players in space

     

    Brown for his combative control in midfield.

  12. I actually thought Bauer done ok today, could do better of course but I thought he was better than Hayes on the other side, I’m with the play a right back at right back and a left back at left back gang.

     

     

    Maybe Griffs race has been run too.

    Those were my 3 choices. Brown was superb throughout i thought. Timeless.

  14. not long in from the match thoughts ,

     

    a welcome 3 pts. – thanks for French eddy

     

    why change the formation for a home game

     

    J Hayes dearie dearie , Taylor must be shocking at training .

     

    we are far too easily caught out at the back with one forward pass from opposition – needs sorted urgently.

     

    far too many players going backwards.

     

    oh and by the way – why would you sign for us when our manager is only interested in picking his favourites from his usual 14/15 players.

  15. LG is only just back. He will get bettrr & we need Elyounoussi back.

     

    Hayes struggled tday & RC targeted him.

     

     

    We still need variations for corners & FKs

     

     

    IMO

  16. MOISEY17

     

    You need to stop talking sense! I agree with all of your points. Today was utterly insipid, with no spark or energy (until Eddie came on). A competent striker would have buried us before halftime. At 3-0, it is incomprehensible why Klimala did not come on. And why give Dembele 5 minutes, when you could give him 20? Very frustrating.

     

     

    Post Dubai, I detect no difference between today, and our tepid December performances against Hamilton, St. Mirren etc. Where is the “intensity and aggression” promised? Where are the incoming first team ready “experienced” players? We are an Odsonne injury away from major problems, and we are riding our luck at the moment.

     

     

    If we blow this league, the fury currently being directed by Man U fans towards the Glazers and Woodward will pale into insignificance compared to what will face the Celtic Board and Peter Lawwell.

  17. !!BADA BING!! on 25TH JANUARY 2020 5:18 PM

     

     

    I think MJ struggled tday. He is a bit too slight for some of the rough stuff that has/is coming our way in the run in. A few times tday he just couldnt go 50/50 to get the ball.

     

     

    Thought OE should have hit the FK in 2nd half to give him the HT but MJ was determined.

     

     

    I do hope he comes good because he has skill.

  18. The buns beat st Mirren 1-0 on Wednesday while we were winning comfortably at rugby park

     

     

    Today we won 3-0 against a team a place above st Mirren

  19. Canamalar it looks like OCD obsession on

    What makes anyone think James McLean would be allowed to play, I’d expect him to receive a record amount of bookings and bans

  20. CQN POTM

     

     

    The Griff ( Just think what he’s had to come thru!

     

     

    Odds -On……….( Two reasons)

     

     

    Cal Mac.

     

     

    HH

  21. 30 competitive goals for Odsonne now, this season already…. He could easily become as big as Thierry Henry.

     

    We should cherish every minute we have him.

     

     

    Just as important though for winning games for us this season has been FF.

     

     

    If there is any possible way to sign him permanently in this window it would be imo massive for the whole club.

     

     

    It could the short term boost the support needs and the long term benefits particularly in Europe are obvious.

     

     

    Anyway 3 games in and we’ve won 2-1

     

    3-1 and 3-0 so can’t complain.

    Don’t think we should be benchmarking against them.

  23. Never mind the quality feel the width.

     

     

    Surprising line up and formation where NL returned to his crestfallen last home game with our millions of wingers he apparently can’t see enough of them.

     

     

    Doubled up on each flank Celtic still couldn’t find the advantage despite oodles of width, and it was Ross County who caught the narrow back three out at least four times down Jonny Hayes side? and should have scored at least twice.

     

     

    Luckily, a penalty from gormless galoot Clancy nearly, but not quite wakened up the crowd in time to go for a pie and bovril at half time

     

     

    Tedium would be easy to improve on in the second half, where Celtic were at least hitting into the end where I can see properly

     

     

    Some experts would have rested more than Eddy but the big man saved the day, and having come on scored a first ne double should have bee taken straight back off, he’s that good.

     

     

    It would be great to have more variety at Celtic, and Mikey Johnston really has to settle soon and take his game time by the scruff. James Forrest will likely run amok in Perth on Wednesday it’s what he does, and thanks at least to the excellent CQN’er Bada Bing we’ve an inkling of Tom Rogic’s troublesome knee, and play some miss some season(s)

     

     

    Width is great, but no matter how good, they need something to hit ………cue Odsonne Edouard

     

     

    MOM Eddy

     

     

    Hail Hail

     

     

    P.s. shawfield traffic get it sorted

  24. Adi – I am willing to give Griff the benefit of the doubt as I love the wee man but i just have a feeling, but hey what do I know.

     

    I would like to see some game time for Polish Paddy right enough, maybe last 10-20 mins of games.

  26. Hunderbirds are Gone on

    I joined the Duck Duck Go Club during the game today. I am on iPad and what a difference it made. Left JavaScript on the whole time, and there was no page jumping or lag at all, and there were less adverts too. Thanks for the recommendations from many on here.

     

    I would definitely recommend to anyone having difficulties with the CQN site. Come in, the water’s lovely. Duck Duck? See what I did there?

    Your comment sadly sums up state of Scottish football…..The rest of the world does not care about 9IAR or whatever….Scottish mickey mouse league. We cannot keep dining out on 1967…..we need to remove this mentality…. beating the team formerly known as “Rangers” ….20 times a season ….ask yourself the question….who, outside of sectarian Scotland cares?….globally it is seen as tribalism. Celtic are either a European powerhouse or a backwater pub league participant. I want the former, and not teh latter. Seville was such a momentous occasion…. We owe, to our 67 heros, to push on,,,in EUROPE…and we haven’t…and that is down to this “beating rangers 20 or,30 times a season, being more important” mentality.

     

     

    I like the cut of your jib CSC

    Seriously?

    Im sure PP will get game time v soon. We need more than PP & I think we have guys who will come in to help in the run in. Looks like we will add another experienced player. ( hopefully)

     

     

    Sometimes I think away games at this particular time is probably better for us due to the vibes from the stands if we dont bury teams early.

     

     

    But just what I think.

     

     

    Hey ho.
