Kyogo confidence returns

150
By on CQN BLOG & Comments

Two corner kicks within 5 minutes midway through the second half put Celtic out of St Johnstone’s reach yesterday.  Both corners were taken short, passed to the edge of the box, before the ball was returned behind the defensive line.  It looks like a training ground set-piece strategy, which delivered.

A second straight 4-0 win, albeit over weaker opposition like Motherwell and St Johnstone, confirms an end to Celtic’s poor run of form, which saw draws at Zagreb, Hampden and Tannadice.  Maybe we just have better sports scientists, but the team look rested and ready for each game.

Kyogo will not score an easier goal than the header he put into an empty net from 1 yard out on 59 minutes.  Our key striker has looked short of confidence for some time, but that easy conversion opened the door for a superb strike a few moments later.

Those goals brought Kyogo’s tally of league goals to 8 this season, four of which were scored against St Johnstone.  It’s almost as though he is saving them up for a special occasion.

January will be a testing month, with nine games across three competitions, but we look in good shape for it.

    TexasTim – Good to see you’re having a great time.

     

     

    Engels had played well the last couple of games – 11mil for the player seemed like a lot of money, but there’s

     

    a star in production there. I’d like to see some more composure on the ball and in front of goal but it’ll come over time. Under Brendan and the coaching team he’ll become our very own Declan Rice.

     

     

    Hatate also purring at the minute – what a ball for Kuhn’s goal and for pass to set up the wee man’s diving header yesterday. We’re in good shape for Thursday.

    Var panel decided that Butland’s og should have stood, surprised they managed to find two who didn’t agree 🙄

     

     

    “The panel discussed this decision at length with the majority (3:2) deeming the onfield decision incorrect.”

    Hi Celtic peeps,

     

    Just a wee request for my beloved Celtic on Thursday. Don’t forget we are playing against at least 15 !

     

    So keep 11 men on the pitch please, and most importantly, when we are 5 or 6 ahead, do not ease off, make that scum suffer.

     

    Not much to ask is it ?

    I think that Robin Propper is their Marvin Comperr , though we cussed it out after one game.

     

    Hail Hail

    shortened version:

     

     

    Paddy Cleary buried the Catholics and McClennan (or whatever his name was) buried the Protestants. McClennan bought a new, fancy hearse and he told his driver to slowly show it off to Paddy Cleary and his pals who would be chewing the fat outside his funeral business.

     

     

    The driver stopped at Paddy and told him that the new hearse was reserved for masons and top Orangemen.

     

     

    Paddy replied, “Tell Mr. McClennan, I hope it’s never off the road.”

    Few posters on here were saying there was nowt up with motherwells chalked off goal.

     

    Thankfully, the KMI panel are more knowledgeable and discerning

     

    I look forward to the online sun having 7 consecutuve days of reporting

     

    Otherwise, it would suggest their reporters are merely huns with laptops

    The whole of Europe is talking about that disallowed Butland og with some saying they will remember it for the rest of their lives.

    In the 2016/2017 went into the new year derby 16 ahead.

     

     

    Easy to forget this season is, domestically at least, not out of the ordinary for our club. As recently as two seasons ago we had one more point at this stage, we were in the middle of a run of 32 games with one defeat and one draw.

    dafty phil says only a couple of weeks ago we were competing with Spurs and Celtic, and defending well.

     

     

    forgetting they lost 3 goals against us.

     

     

    he is the chief delusional officer.

    a pure random q.

     

     

    how many collective goals have ouut japanese players scored against thems.

     

     

    and what is kyogos wi.draw/loss in the fixture

  33. Turkeybhoy on

    Glenowen,

     

    Nobody said it should have been chalked off.I said if a forward touches a keeper at a corner,it usually,gets chalked off.Which it does.People always disagree on this,even two of the five did.

     

    I did not think it should have bee ruled out,but its not cheating.Another football rule thats open to discretion.VAR looked and ruled it out.

     

    Its not always cheating.

    Jackie Mac,

     

     

    Big Kasper would get in the team (yes I am unsure of spelling Schmeichel…)

     

     

    The fullbacks too would in with a shout.
