Why is Efe diving in like that when he no chance of getting the ball. Let the striker take his chances with the keeper., but don’t dive in and get a red!
I can’t see anything other that what I am visualising from posts on here, but it doesn’t sound good. It sounds like we’ve broken the cardinal rule, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”.
What was so bad about our multiple record breaking (last) season that has necessitated dismantling our midfield and completely doing away with our 100+ goal-scoring forward line?
It was commented a little earlier that our defenders and midfielders are not doing their jobs properly, but the line-up appears to be a complete mish-mash! We have a right back at left back and another who was at centre back (now in the shower!), a left/centre back in midfield and another left back on the bench, a complete novice in midfield who has trained just twice with his new team-mates, four attacking midfielders and no wingers, with Johansen left to provide midfield solidity all on his own, and our best two strikers, two battling midfielders and a habitually under-performing winger on the bench.
Where did it all go so horribly wrong?!!!
Ach well, at least we have a more realistic chance of actually winning a few games in the Europa League, as long as we get through the final qualifying round, where we could be drawn against old foes Aalborg, Elfsborg, HJK Helsinki, Dinamo Moscow. Or St Etienne.

Izzy carrying a slight injury, but we need him second half
ItaliaBhoy on
Frustrating thing is, Legia look poor. If we still had 11 on the park I’d say shut up shop now. But with 10 this could be painful to watch.
Time to man up, Bhoys!

Efe weak; couldnae pass gas. The Sieve appears to be back
I don’t feel this tie is over, even if we lose another one, BUT….
There is a point about Euro away tactics being more defensive.
I don’t think Legia have been that great but we have been poor so far and very weak on the left hand side which is where the manager has made two brave selections.

Kayal on…
Gulp :)

You can’t play possession football with players who can’t consistently keep the ball.
Therefore this system was always going to be caught out by a better quality of opposition.
Legia are no great shakes but they have been gifted this game so far and if Ronny doesn’t close the game down at half time then you’ve got to ask serious questions.
Biton needs to come on for the new guy and Kayal for either Pukki or McGregor. Bottle the midfield up theres another leg FFS!

Have only Shortbread but don’t think I heard Bergets’s name mentioned once since we went one up.
Total passenger. Midfield appear lost or non existent if radio commentary in any way accurate.
What would big Johan have said about what seems a shambles of a defensive performance.
Come on, Ronny, gee up the bhoys for the second hale, make the right changes and we can do this. Atmosphere sounds brilliant.
One thing I’ve got to say some atmosphere in that stadium
Frank Ryan's Whiskey on
To play the type of football our Ronnie craves against decent opposition you need a team of players capable of the basic elements of football – ability to control the ball, the ability to make a simple pass.
Sloleybhoy on
Berget anonymous, Mathews exposed. Charlie’s inability to control a ball within 6 yards costs Ambrose big time but his naivety causes red card.
Forster should do better with goal
Pukki Off ? How can Berget stay on, not up to pace and no understanding bizarre decision
Would bite your hand off for 2-1 now

Radio Shortbread “we’re on the precipice” ffs

Going a man down invariably means a defeat. Away in the champions league, hmmm.
Steep learning curve for Ronnie… Damage limitation.
Has Ronny confused this with another pre-season friendly? It sounds like he may have. I reckon he visited the referee’s room at half time to confirm that he is allowed to replace the entire team for the second half.

Some of you really need to calm down.
This mob ain’t great and at the moment the tie is still there to be won.
It’s over two legs remember that.
At last common sense

Ronnie will be judged on his decisions.
First signing thrown in for the first game in Warsaw?
Ineffectual at best.
.

Think we have a few regulars on already………
This shambles is made in the boardroom. Poor Ronny the patsy. Totally out of his depth.
Celtic are a poor imitation of a football club.
And some of you will make crap excuses for this.

C’mon Bhoys .
We could easily pull back a couple of goals next week.
Kayal for Pukki
Could be a long 45 minutes ….mon the hoops
OK Ronnie bhoy….first real challenge coming up
Berget very lucky to stay on, couldn’t find him in the first half with radar
