    Well done Artur.

     

    We deserved to lose if only for making all those substitions and playing rubbish players like McCarthy and Johnston. Hopefull Mooy can take Calmac’s place because without him team falls apart.

    MJ has been mismanaged and has been unprofessional (see spat with Neil Lennon when he should have gone off injured , see how his frame has not bulked up).

     

     

    Wasted talent – should have been sent on loan years ago.

  12. Turkeybhoy on

    IAnd Celtic TV closes as Artur makes his speech.One a half hours listening to that fud Mc Culloch !!!!!.

     

     

    Why do I pay for this?.

  14. IniquitousIV on

    HIT SMOKED

     

     

    “There is no doubt MJ has talent in abundance. For me, it is up to the backroom bhoys to ensure that talent becomes fruitful.”

     

    ——————————

     

    We say that every year, then absolutely nothing happens, despite the efforts of umpteen sets of backroom bhoys. Let’s face it, it’s never going to happen. He’s the ‘Nearly’ man. He is a total waste of a space that could be filled with a player who actually contributes.

    Jeepers, just catching up on the BBC climb down.

     

     

    I never expect any different from the BBC or media generally but they never cease to find new lows to sink down to.

     

     

    ‘Editorial standards’ indeed.

  16. Timbhoy163 on

    I think if we get decent money Johnson,Turnbull ,McCarthy ,Taylor ,Bain,possibly Welsh ,take it,I know it’s a friendly but some players performances are just no good enough to play for Celtic.

  18. THE EXILED TIM on

    The first half was Celtic at their flowing best, the second half was Ange playing silly buggers, no more no less.

     

    Oh and SFTB, when we are 3-0 up agin the hun, we will probably add to it.

  19. stebhoy on

    At this stage in the season – I think rangers look stronger (not easier on the eye, not scintillating) just stronger and more balanced.

     

     

    Controversial – but we have work to do defensively – hopefully Mooy and Moritz help

  20. IniquitousIV on

    SFTB

     

     

    “So- we are leading 3:0 against the huns at half time.

     

     

    Whose confident we’ll hold on for 3 points?”

     

    ————————-

     

    An injury to CCV and I won’t be.😊

  21. CaddingtonCommon on

    23 players stripped so not at all surprising that the result ended the way it did.

     

    Is Ange worried ? I don’t think so. The game was more of a testimonial for AB than anything else.

     

    Nobody hurt and few players to come back. Rest easy.

     

    Hail Hail

     

    Stay Safe

  22. vinniethedog on

    Mikey Johnson actually looks if he’s added a few pounds which I thought might help….but I think its psychological……Mccarthy has nothing left ..sad but true ….Guchi mmm …. thought Julien did fine …..JJ off it a bit…..I’d like a victory on sat please

  24. corkcelt on

    Second half wasn’t that bad, Certainly they had a period of total domination but we came back & last 20 minutes , I reckon we probably had more of the ball & threatened more than them.

     

    It is also possible that they held their better players for second half while we did opposite,

     

    Overall I enjoyed the game, these games are a learning curve for both players & Ange.

     

    If there are weaknesses and if some players not good enough this is the time to find it out.

     

    Obviously I’m gutted at dropping another 2 points but apart from that I think we are in a good place overall.

  25. TinyTim on

    Hot smoked 6.51

     

    I couldn’t disagree more .

     

    The coaches can only do so much .

     

    Mikey consistently lacks the composure ,physicality,decision making ,a final end product ,pace ,and confidence ,to play for Celtic .

    At several points over last season Ange emphasized the importance of having a large pool of players he could bring in and who were familiar with the teams patters of play and had enough match fitness to be able to step in without too much of a drop off in quality

     

     

    At different points in the season every single outfield player suffered from a hamstring injury. Our style of play puts a lot of stress on players and means that injuries are almost a given, so a large squad will always be necessary

     

     

    Ange also said that he conditions his teams to peak physically in the run up to seasons end which he considers to be the crucial part of the season

     

     

    A rigorous pre season is very important in terms of conditioning every player in the squad to be ready when called on. That includes minutes in more competitive friendlies.

     

     

    We were unbeaten in 32 games in the league last season, we don’t need the sort of confidence that beating a team 6-0 in a friendly brings

     

     

    We do need match sharpness for as many squad members as possible. They’ll all be used at some point, but they won’t all be used together at the same time, so the weaknesses highlighted in a meaningless have will be largely hidden or made up fir by the first team players around them

  27. celtic40me on

    The result is meaningless, the performance also, although slightly less

     

     

    Ange knows what every single one of those players can do, he won’t learn anything about Mikey Johnston or James McCarthy from today.

  31. IniquitousIV on

    Just tuned into the CL – Dynamo Kiev vs Fenerbache Qualifier on Paramount Plus. Very fast, with a significant amount of skill and effort on display. Still 0-0 after 15 minutes.

     

    Greeks ahead in Israel.

     

    Czechs win in Finland.

  32. bournesouprecipe on

    Good game for a testimonial and Arthur Boruc a true Celtic legend.

     

     

    Had the game itself been the proverbial boxing match, it would have been stopped, Celtic were so far ahead the AP high intensive surge, consumed the home side, we lost count of the times we should have, or nearly scored and 2-0 flattered, battered Legia. But fitness and selection choices take precedence over results in pre season, the ‘system’ still leaves us wide open and forever trading punches with other teams, than can attack as we can.

     

     

    It’s beginning to look like CCV and Stephen Welsh for the game against Aberdeen as Carl Starfelt coming back from injury with elsewhere Jullien. AP left only Stephen Welsh on, but the rout was turned into a circus with Celtic’s ten subs that were never going to adjust quickly enough against an already miffed Legia, who were actually Euro dangerous on the counter from the first minutes.

     

     

    Much preferred the Celtic side that started but like every other Celtic supporter would swop in some favourites, just not ten of them, in a game that was Celtic probables against Celtic possibles.

    TB is rapidly becoming our version of BFDJ.

     

    The main commentator is straight out of hospital radio.

     

    However TB’s summaries / analysis is cringe inducing.

     

     

    CTV should become our secondary income stream if it is handled property.

     

    The current standards are nowhere we need to be.

     

    Fans TV won’t cut it.

  35. Tom McLaughlin on

    SFTB

     

     

    I can’t see Ange making 10 second half substitutions against Rangers. Can you?

  37. Back to Basics - Glass Half Full on

    Watched first half.

     

     

    Missed second.

     

     

    Takeaways for me ….

     

     

    We make good chances and, when it comes together, we make making good chances look easy.

     

     

    I’m looking forward to the squad being trimmed and then growing as a group.

     

     

    I suspect centre back positions now filled.

     

     

    Ange has Carl, Cameron, Stephen and whatshisname.

     

     

    I think he’ll settle for that.

     

     

    Ideally….

     

     

    Sell Julienne and Ajeti.

     

     

    Sell or loan Shaw and Urhoghide.

     

     

    Mikey out on loan for a full season.

     

     

    Bring in a rock star.

  38. Back to Basics - Glass Half Full on

    SFTB – to your 3-0 scenario question.

     

     

    Yes, absolutely.

     

     

    Hail hail

  40. Burnley78 on

    Love those who seek to find fault in all we do reaching into meaningless friendliest to find reason to moan.

     

     

    References to seive’s

     

    and other criticisms of a team in total pre season warm up mode rotating and giving the full squad of players some game time.

     

     

    Who need the daily record to exaggerate rangers strength and our deficiencies when we have our own Celtic blogging core …. Of wannabe Hugh Keevins.

     

     

    Next we will be hearing about biscuit Tins and it all being Peter Lawwell’s fault.

  41. corkcelt on

    If we were winning our preseason games easily why would the Board want to stump up to buy new players,

     

    If there are mistakes made if certain players are showing that they are not good enough , now is the time to shine the light,

     

    Transfer window is open till 1st September, plenty of time to do business both in and out.

     

     

    I refuse to get too bothered by the good & the bad of preseason football.

     

    All that changes when we run out against Aberdeen.
