Crossing with the exception of Tierney is mince in this team.
He crosses early and with pace like the fearless youth he is.Hope it’s not coached out of him.
A major worry as it seems our only method of creating chances.
Hard to say what is worse .our poor crossing or lack of movement in the final third?
Is our crossing made to look worse due to the fact that only our opponents seem to attack the ball in this area while we wait?
Are the players themselves as baffled by the coaching system as the fans?
Again the centre of midfield created nothing.
This area is our problem.
It was noticeable when Allen came on how much he looked around for movement and space to pass into but our static players provided zero.
Put him centre and see if he can add a creative element to this stalled area.
Either the system needs revised or the players remit changes.
We are not the sum of our parts and the doubts about the coaches remain.

If you got something to say…say it.
Instead of your sleekit nonsense
Support the Manager,not the SMSM.The commentators and presenters today should be enough for you to realise what we are up against,but it seems not.
.All credit to EK. They deserved their lap of honour at the end. Their CH Russell was impressive and worked his socks off to keep the score down. Praise also for the goal keeper. He did his Dad proud.
Having said all of that, this was a poor performance from Celtic. Even the goals were scrambled affairs, although Griff’s overhead kick was worthy of a goal.
Positives: Sviatchenko is a find; Tierney is very impressive(let’s hope he does not catch the Celtic disease of only making the safe passes)’ ; Ambrose was good in the first half. CKR may be a useful addition, although it is too early to say.
Negatives:There are still too many players that flatter to deceive(GMS, JF) Why can’t SA and RC get a chance to show their paces?
The major problem is the predictability of the Celtic attack. It is easy to defend against it. EK provided the latest example. Celtic usually attack down the wings, either by the wingers or the full backs. All the opposition has to do is make sure there are three players between the attacker and the box. The attacker is forced wide and his cross is either erratic or blocked. The other option for the attacker is to try to sand dance through the three defenders which is very difficult. Playing two wingers in the front three or four creates this problem. Today we had lots of the ball but created very few chances.
IMHO, if we must attack down the wings, the winger and full back need to play one or the other into the box behind the defending three. It rarely happens. Does it get coached?
I saw nothing today to dispel the feeling of gloom that I have about this team. You can call me disloyal if you like but what’s the point in pretending that things are improving.

That’s a good word, even for a Sunday.
My mother used it often.
I’ll needed to use it today.

Im no zombie…but i know a poor team when i see one.
What bottle?
*no talkin about you FFS read the post, I’m talking about wooly booly mcsleekit.
Just watched Songs of Praise, and they included a lovely feature on ‘Mary’s Meals’ I know a lot of posters on here are supporters of this charity.
Leaving aside the theory that Celtic should ‘ hump’ the EKsof this world I am relatively pleased that it wasn’t by too many,that the goalkeeper was MOM and I can tell all the Huns that most of the EK were ‘Tims’ and we were going easy on them. Load of mince except the goalie bit!!
Fanatic,
Your post beat me to it! Let’s hope that it is not a case of “fools seldom differ”. Sadly, I do not think that it is.

Did not enjoy the game at all. I had assumed given the amount of ‘flack’ that both the manager and team have been subjected to over the past couple of weeks that we would have came out and steam rolled EK but we didn’t. Given the footballing chasm that, should, exists between Celtic and EK I was disappointed to see a Celtic team fielded with an apparent lack of purpose. Lethargic and wasteful come to mind. I still await the high tempo pressing game we were promised even against vastly inferior opposition. Never the less well done to EK for battling and trying for the 90 mins. I do sympathise with Ronnie it can’t be much fun knowing that regardless of what you do that it is patently obvious that you are almost certainly going to lose your job within the next few months, if not sooner.
TURKEYBHOY…

Can you elaborate? What is it that some (all? a few?) Celtic fans are doing that upsets you?
/p

Apologies.
Im getting a bit fed up on here.
Fed up getting slated for stating the obvious.
But right enough….im totally brainwashed by the meeja:)
HH
Sack the board.
67 heaven I find it pretty incredible that some of us want to berate our fellow Celtic supporters because they are unhappy at some of the worst Celtic performances I have seen.
That there is no reaction from this team. No spirit and no fight says it all really.
Seems they are all to busy enjoying themselves.
It’s perfectly clear we are a shambles and we are rapidly getting worse.
The board just want us to hand over our wallets and shut up.
Their silence on everything is defeating. They want everyone else to do the hard stuff.
They have presided over the wasted opportunity to take us out of sight of the opposition I’m Scotland. Wasted on the alter of the failed Moneyball concept and all cos they want to cream of a bit of money.
Now we are left with a shambolic team and management team. A board who’s only public pronouncements are to attack the Celtic support. The schism between board and team and support is Grand Canyon like.
Meanwhile the board are salivating at the prospect of bigotry returning while colluding with the corruption.
But hey what’s not to like eh?
Ooops, err Ross County next week will tell us more… and we owe them big time.

What’s the sources of Ronnie to go tomorrow ?
Rob McLean only one winner today
E . K. What rubbish they played with 10 men packed in defence we are in next round glad to see Charlie back at least he can tackle midfield been to lightways last two games would have liked to see Roberts play today what’s point of bringing him up not to play him in a game like this .Whats happened to Janko ls he injured been missing for a while
Turkeys hoy
Who provides potency in the absence of Griffiths. Potency for me isn’t just Goals.
The only two other players who I feel give us thrust ( flogging the innuendo metaphors here) are Erik and Tierney.
Take Griffiths Goals out of the equation and our Goals for wouldn’t look too good..
Turkeybhoy… Apologies iPhone autocorrect!
Thems don’t like it up thum.
Guid.
If what we saw today…is how RD wants Celtic to play.
He be better just leaving for the airport now.
Its not good enough…by a long way.
You all know it….why defend it.
Its a total shambles.
I dont want to see Celtic play like that
Re Mary’s Meals
I watched Southampton yesterday and I see they are sponsoring Mary’s Meals on their tops.
I’d love to see us do something similar.
Alternate
Mary’s Meals away tops
St Andrew’s Hospice home tops.
They just don’t look motivated at all do they, simply going thru the motions. and thats 14 mid fielders we’ve got now…thats just plain daft.

Ethereal voices emanating from the press box.
Ryan Gigg’s in M6 Dash
Tomorrow’s headlines.
If as some on CQN are saying Ronny will get the bullet tomorrow what is the significance of tomorrow ? H.H.
Only in Scoddland when applying the hunguffery filter is such concerted, persistent invective brought to…….bear.
I’d swap Managers and Centre backs with EK
JFH
Ronny wont be getting the bullet tomorrow.
No chance of that.
We have a lot of suffering yet:)
HH
Given the obvious lack of spirit that pervades the majority of the squad, who is going to
provide the fight to see us over the line?
Delia Collins and Kennedy are dead men walking,imo.
Hard times ahead…..
Any less than 5-0 against teams from that level is dire . Insipid performance. .. misplaced passes all day long . We had 3 good right backs now we have none . Our best defender is 18 . Big Erik will be a good signing for us and hopefully strikes up a partnership with Jozo.
We really need a strone holding midfielder – if Charlie is the answer i am unsure of the question. Nir bitton should be that man if he only had courage .
Jamesy … hopeless. Gms not sure he is any better than forrest .
Leigh is off the boil .. if he doesn’t come good and score at least another 10 goals this season we will win nothing.
Apart from that were in the quarter finals and the next 4 spfl games are very winnable if we play anything like we can
No way will Ronny get his jotters, no way, it’s just not happening.
As for our glorious board…..
Dermo
Tom Alison
Eric Riley
Brian Wilson
His Lordship Ian Livingston
Pedro
Now we all know that Pedro has his fingers in all the pies, and according to some his salary is deserved, that is debatable, I was wondering how much the rest take out of the club and more importantly imo, what the efe do they contribute to the club ?
Embdy enlighten me ?
Just back from Ice Station Airdrie. Utter garbage. End of match report.
Dearie Me, I forgot our illustrious chairman Ian Bankier, slap on the posterior for that, how awful.
G67
It was that good then :-)
HH
Ronny is attending a body language training session tomorrow.
Brown brogues optional.
TET
Behave Yourself:)

Same garbage from Celtic as we have been watching for most of the season. No urgency, no passion and no leadership off or on the park. The result is an embarrassment, let’s not go down the road of, “it’s the cup and a win is all that matters”. Under our present manager we have gone backwards and I’m sick of excuses being made for him and his back room staff. He must be replaced but unfortunately if he is then we will no doubt be handed another experiment or cheap option. As for those who think today was all about winning, give yourselves a shake, this is Celtic we are talking about.
