There is a decent possibility that Celtic’s apparent malaise over the six games since the win at Fir Park has something to do with opposition teams closing space our midfielders used to so much effect against Newco at the start of February.
That game was such a platform for our midfield to demonstrate their ability to find and exploit space. Sure, form slips, but opponents watch and learn. Consequentially, Celtic must continue to change the script.
Through this period, Callum McGregor has continued to dominate his area as teams fall deeper, but the two more advanced midfielders, paired from Matt O’Riley, Tom Rogic and Reo Hatate, have been denied the acres available to them against Newco and Motherwell.
We cycled through Rogic-Hatate, O’Riley-Hatate and O’Riley-Rogic combinations during this period, to little effect. The latter combo looked the least effective, but that was against Bodo/Glimt, by far the better opponents.
Meanwhile, Yosuke Ideguchi waits in the dugout. We don’t know enough about Yosuke to make a proper judgement. He made his debut as a late substitute against Hibs in January before being injured at Alloa on his next outing. His only subsequent game time was again as a late sub against Raith.
When played, Yosuke has filled the deep-lying role. Nir Bitton can play here too. I cannot offer any great recommendation for either player, but I would like to see Callum McGregor higher up the field against St Mirren tomorrow, with Yosuke or Nir behind him.
For all the disappointments in Norway last week, Celtic improved when Callum came on to play in front of Bitton. When he steps into the final third, he brings a presence no one else in the squad has. I’m not going to tell you this should be a regular gig for him, but we need to change this area of the park for tomorrow and Sunday. We have options, let’s use them.

Can I ask, can anyone see my posts on here?
Or are they just horse manure and everyone scrolls past?
Jeez, maybe I’m in the bad cliche and I didn’t know it!!

Celtic should face up their responsibilities regarding the Celtic Boys Club abuse claims.
The predators didn’t advertise their horrendous abuse, but they were very much in the mix , of Celtic at the time.
One abuser was given accolades and praise in autobiographies before his crimes became known.
Lives were ruined.
Like many other clubs, Celtic were negligent in their duty of care , back in that era .
Cost versus doing the right thing.
No contest. IMHO

I can see you both, and enjoy your posts, and because they are mostly consistent with things i like I have no reason to come argue, i suppose poiliteness should play a part and i could use the Philvis thumbsup as an acknowledgement
much missed Philvis btw.

I’ve mentioned it before but I still suspect there were some Ferris Bueller style shenanigans going on with those podiums. Not that I’m bitter.

But when Israeli warplanes were crushing our bones and homes to dust in Lebanon and Palestine, the EU told us we need to “talk” to the Israelis and not fight/boycott them. So why aren’t you talking to the Russians? https://twitter.com/HadiNasrallah/status/1498645882715230221?s=20&t=kiO3R4keMtrL1Sn-dVgItQ
••••••••
The EU is a snake pit supported by unthinking easily mugged mugs.
George Galloway as PM…
No deal workers Brexit, not a bankers Brexit.
United Ireland.
Palestine recognized and bumper trade deals agreed with, Cuba, China, Venezuela, Russia, United Ireland, etc, etc.
Billionaires banned from owning football clubs.
70% of unnecessary seats removed from football stadiums etc, etc.
Media contracts not allowed to be renewed or signed off by George Galloway govt, and a new highly informative and educational media will be created.
A new cheap and efficient drug company to be created ((like Jeremy Corbyn proposed and was called a communist by demonic media, and other misinformed assholes)) to supply a new and more efficient NHS always free at the point of need, and booting private contractors greedy slimey balls out of NHS, by force if necessary, hopefully live on tv.
You know what, look up Workers Party GB and don’t be put off with the red white and blue party symbol its a reflection of open to all, led by the only political party leader on this island of Britain whom 99.999% of media and politicians on this small island, are terrified to go face to face with, the 0.1111% is GB news, meanwhile Celtic supporters are content for their club to be controlled by, Irish Tory absentee landlords, an old firm focused PLC board of corruption, with ((previous??)) CEO Lawwell running away like a big fearty from Ch4News Alex Thompson and putrid MP, James Dornan, from a live tv interview about Celtic boys club abuse issues, as I said in a post previously, there would be ((no)) UK media or politicians on this island who’d be relishing the opportunity to trash, Celtic fc, if they all knew it was, George Galloway, that they’d be facing in their attempts to do that.
Celtic supporters in the main will say that “Brexit is right wing racism” etc, etc.
But do these same Celtic supporters not even realise that ((real)) far far left wing MP’s of the time who tried to prevent Britain joining EEC in first place, honourable MP’s before honour disappeared, like, Barbara Castles, Tony Benn, Peter Shore, etc, etc, even ((real)) right winger, Enoch Powell, all their minds met as they knew that the EU would be a centre left, centre right, mainly centre, bullsh*t neo liberal, conscription to fund the always at war, NATO, who’ve been creating wars since 1945, who the fk would want that??
Why do you think far far left, and far far right MP’s have agitated for Brexit since 1975?? as have the ((Libdems Jo Swinson in 2009 & SNP in 2012)) I’ll try to find the SNP tweet, also agitated for Brexit but would now lie through their teeth about it as they are after all, opportunists who’d think nothing of bending over to usher a Tory govt into 10 Downing Street, SNP did this in 1979 & 2019, and Libdems in 2010, but it really is galling to see so many – so called – Irish Republican Celtic supporters simply not understanding the bonanza of opportunities for working class people ((if)) Brexit is in the hands of a leader who is pro the working classes and who will not surrender their principles like the ghastly 95% of Labour Party MP’s did to Jeremy Corbyn, but they wouldn’t have did this to, George Galloway, if he was Labour Party leader, GG would’ve put these MP’s on notice that they either stand by the leaders principled program, voted for by the party members, or these MP’s will be replaced by, working class MP’s at the next election!!!!
etc, etc.
The game in AUSTRALIA will give the much maligned SYDNEYTIM a chance to vent his frustrations at wee Jamsie close up .😊☘️🟩⬜🟨…
On naw I hope wee James is carrying a knock 😜😜😁😁
We do face packed defences and we struggle to break them down, bit we also win a massive amount of coroners and free kicks around the box with next to no variation.
Im disappointed we haven’t been trying something different. Floaty corners and shots into the wall seem to be the some total.
We need more goals from dead ball situations, Time for some creativity at Lennoxtown .
@Multi……Hum this in yer heid to the tune of Bob Lind…

95% of yon fellas posts are about celtic the football part, remember that. his words.
and his first ever posts on here were not about the possible outcome of the courts.
imho, that and comments on how other people vote was always his strategic intent.

If this is true??
Where is all the outcry about going to a country that puts its citizens into concentration camps because they refuse to be used as lab rats and have experimental pharmaceutical substances injected into them??
Where is the outcry about visiting an imperialist country that subjected, 750,000 peaceful protestors to microwave radiation, old grannies, grandas, grandchildren, all radiated for protesting peacefully less than two weeks ago??
If your unaware of this its because your a slave to the demonic rhythm of western mainstream media, and that is your lazy ass fault.
I’m not fully up to speed on the Oz tour largely because the Club have seen fit to withhold some information with their reference to ‘other clubs’.
If Sevco have been lined up to play us then it confirms the widely held suspicion that the board room hasn’t changed since the departure of Lawwell.
Organising a friendly with the huns to cater to ‘old firm’ tourists is bad enough but to announce it in such an underhand manner is downright dishonest.
Play O /Riley and Mc Carthy in midfield also I would add Dawson and Doak to the squad and give Dembele some game time .
