That’s five consecutive wins after the post-isolation debacle in January but Aberdeen have never come closer to scoring in their six games without a goal than at Celtic Park last night. The game was decided by the excellent 30-yard strike from David Turnbull that found the corner of the net and the almost-as-good shot from Aberdeen’s Kamberi that struck the post.
Celtic mastered the opening 30 minutes as Aberdeen were content to sit off, but there was no fluidity to our passing from the moment the visitors pressed. This run of wins is as much as we can ask of the team right now, but it was far from reassuring.
I don’t think I have seen as big a contrast in a player’s performance when he switches positions than that of Ryan Christie, who looks like a £20m player in the No. 10 role and appears anonymous on the right. For a whole raft of reasons, it is right to retain David Turnbull in the 10 role, but Ryan needs to do his work in the middle of the field. When he stops deputising for injured James Forrest he should be cover for Turnbull or Neil needs to find him a deeper role.

I like the big center for Antwerp – reminds me of Sutton. We need that type of player
The level of energy and pace with the huns is marked when you compare to us most of the time. Their weak spot is the amount of players they get in the box and in the press. Once a team gets past it, they can score. Played like that at CP but it needed 2 set pieces to win. We were rubbish but any time we passed through the press we nearly scored against the run of play.
They played completely differently at Ibrox where they sat back, scared of our passing . Got away with it as we should have score 2 first half.
In summary, it is a really high energy and exciting approach they have but a ‘cool head’ team can score easily against them

Why would you keep that keeper on.The sub must only have one arm.
I dislike Arfield so much , I can’t stand the way he swaggered off the pitch there . I’m very strange
Just as well they can’t hear the commentary
Have to say,that big Catholic boy at LB, Barisic,crosses a lovely ball.
3-3
Oh FFS,back to the Arsenal game.
In fairness that was a good goal😕

A couple of posts earlier about reform of European football seemed to concentrate on the possible negative outcomes but ignored this:
“Extra Champions League spot should go to countries such as Scotland, says European Leagues president Lars-Christer Olsson”

How did you come to a conclusion these comments were ignored?
Great goal. Twerps have loads of players back but they are just subbuteo players. No challenges , just stand there. They really are crap but have scored 3 and nearly 4
3-4 hun
Ffs . The thread is massive tonight…shrek & Craighun wetting themselves.
Two penalties and a red card.
Steven Craigan panty wetting
Went for a pee after another Antwerp attack came back to a penalty and red card
3 soft pens. Should be 2-2
Alex Rae in shock ‘ knows what he’s talking about ‘ claim
As the Huns have played tonight compared with us having played last night, why are they having to KO much earlier than us on Sunday?
Antwerp just hit the woodwork?
Hate them as much as I do , but got to say they have been hard to beat in Europe , the scouser knows the European game alright .
Hot smoked
We’re on sky

Thanks.
Quite an enjoyable evening on CQN so, before that changes,
Goodnight all.
Wee Frimping gettin an assist tnite.
Well done son
They still play here & with a decent coached team..they will be caught
Nite nite
Antwerp are a weird team, only attack in adversity, once Huns score. Look more than capable of scoring but always sit back😵😱
Huns are fitter than us and set up better.
Antwerp chucked it at 3-2 and couldn’t get going again =. Morelos link up play is better than Eduard . Result could have gone either way but if Lennon was managing Rangers tonight – they would have sat in and invited trouble for most of the match.
Gerrard is not that type and knows defending starts with possession.
Hi Remember the Generation of Domination
Lol
Huns are sleekit creatures…beware of them! Lurkin’ here and lurkin’ there…
The Invincibles
Lest we forget
Alex Thomson just tweeted this:
Rangers – You can break your silence any time you want. Do what Celtic appear too scared to do, sit down, give
@Channel4News an interview and face your past. You know where I am.
https://twitter.com/alextomo/status/1362527818630979585
por cierto
And what are we too scared to do?
I don’t understand that tweet.
If it’s what I think it is Celtic have apologised and shown remorse
What’s he on about?
I think AT is referring to both clubs not willing to give him an interview por cierto
