I agree about the AEK coach but did not see anything from tonight’s Salzburg coach that changed the pattern of his predecessor(s).

OGLACH….
You may be right but it’s also worth noting that BR has signed many of his own players – most are injured (constantly) or on the bench.
When BR came in, he improved many of the players he had but his dealings in the transfer market mostly leave a lot to be desired. Dembele was a masterstroke….struggling to think of many more.

Moussa, Scotty S, Eddie & Ntcham are probably the pick of the bunch. The rest to be fair (out with Kouassi) were all likely deemed at best squad player / stop gaps and that we didn’t really spend that much on.

Listening in
Oh my lugs bleed
Everyone now happy
Wi the league cup arrangements
Well
Apart far Celtic
But that’s ok
While watching their heroes on TV
Cos they’re banned
Fecking outrageous
Hail Hail

“SFTB, no need to fall out”
I haven’t- just correcting a misrepresentation.
“got the impression Brendan can do no wrong,”
Not from me you didn’t.
“as far as the gp bit goes see him tomorrow 11 am about my gout”
If he recommends homeopathy or Reiki, I might just give up.
OGLACH….
I think BR has signed around 20 players. So are we suggesting that around 15 were signed as stop-gaps or squad players?
I’d be the first to agree that he may not have been sufficiently backed but I’m still far from convinced that we are getting bang for buck on what HAS been spent.
A little light relief, back to a time when we never got beyond Christmas in Europe!, Bend it like Brattbakk, tomorrow and Saturday, 7:30 kick off. Almost sold out. https://webstersglasgow.com/events/bend-it-like-brattbakk-2018-10-05/

IniquitousIV – totally agree, fire has went out in BR
Just watched a wee bit of huns game. If they win , the media will be all over them ,while slating Celtic. The fact that Salzburg are a very good team while Rapid are absolute mince will not be mentioned.
BTW I think we deserve to be slated. Poor first touch and some shocking passing are always going to be found out at this level. Add to that the way some of our players wandered through the game like their minds were on other things.
We have undoubtedly gone backwards and answers as to why , have to be found.
Good post… IniquitousIV
Thought Hendry was sleeping at both goals – too slow in reacting – on both occassions to players getting across the front of him. It is a fault that can be coached out of him.
Lots of comments re: Mikael – some of it is – I feel – overly harsh.
I thought he was mostly quite good, but he’s obviously feeling the pace after a long season, a World Cup, and a shortened break due to being called back early to cover for a lack of central defensive options available to Brendan early in the season and, as a result, no pre-season training.
Whatever the reasons behind it, we are suffering due to lack of refreshing the playing squad over two years under Brendan.
As someone said earlier – Brendan is playing some players that he may prefer, in an ideal world, not to. If he doesn’t get the players in that he has targetted, then he has little option to continue doing that.
First year miracles were with Ronny’s team – most of the second year the same.
Hoping to do it three years on the trot is not plausable – no matter how good the manager is.

Sorry pal. Have not seen your flasks. Don’t know who has them.

RICHIE from THE BLANE VALLEY HAS THEM
Having Benkovich, Ajer & Brown fit would have made us much more resilient imo.

The last 3 windows have seen
3 players from city (2 of whom have been successes and one who’s just in the door)
5 players from Scotland
8 from elsewhere (Ipswich, psg, Leipzig, chelsea, Leicester and two free agents)
We’re looking elsewhere we’re just not doing it very well
Did anyone think we would win the game,when we were starting the 2nd half?
Just home from an enjoyable evening spent in a pub with an old friend I see too infrequently.
Probably not sensible posting while semi inebriated but so what, here goes.
Praise is due to our host for his prescience. He called it right.
Love BR to bits but there is nothing in his coaching manual that addresses the need for a stiff, sturdy, manly (and occasionally sleekit) approach to away matches in Europe.
Too much method and politeness. Not enough aggression.
We were swept away by a moderately talented side who upped the tempo second half.
They also worked the referee quite beautifully during that 35 to 45 minute period.
Showed him who was boss and he dutifully acquiesced in the second half.
A streetwise Celtic team WITH NO ADDITIONAL TECHNICAL ABILITY would have won that game 0-1.
Hail hail.
Although it would be one of Benckovic or Ajer in beside Boyata… probably not both
I am almost certain of this. If Brendan goes we can kiss goodbye to 10 in a row (that is if it is still achievable if he leaves). Who will we get to replace him – Roy Keane (DD’s choice) another cheap Ronnie experiment (PL’s choice) Lenny comimg back (can’t see it ) or a Moyes type chancer?
Management ,board , playing staff have a collective responsibility to stop the decay which has set in. There has been a gloom and a negativity around the club all season . Either BR can’t motivate the players or the players themselves can’t be motivated . whatever it is , remedial action is required.
If Brendan stays we won’t do 8 in a feckin’ row!
Nite!
If that doesn’t burst a few bubbles then nothing will.
We are in some state and the usual platitudes will not do.
Overcoached and under-motivated.
They were 5% quicker and 10% stronger.
We are carrying some amount of SPL bullies.
Plus some wee boys drawing a man’s wage.
PL — has to be the most ineffectual player I have ever seem after tonight’s performance.
Absolutely shocking in his ineptitude and attitude — however he does tie the odd scarf to the odd post on the odd awayday so that is OK then.
CMcG — no wonder he can’t get a game for the NT.
20%’er — the other 4 games he is shocking.
Tonight was one of those 4.
JF — the boy who will never grow up.
ML — painful to watch / beyond redemption.
CG — has the authority of the Maybot.
If it wasn’t for YM things could have got really bad.
Killie reject saves the day — who would have believed it?
PL has to go.
BR needs help.

Good post , starting to look more like a Ronny team with every passing game .
SFTB
Was just pointing out how relevant coaching is at the higher levels.
I have been saying for a long time that our coaching needs to improve.
Many fans pointing out that Lustig was and has been in Europe a weak link so not to much of a stretch to think their coach highlighted this area as a weak spot.
Also when we lose the ball what are the players roles?
Seems to me nothing more than run around chasing people and leaving acres of space.
Our off the ball movement is hard to discern as it neither threatens or protects.
Neither defensive or threatening.
Our spacing is also a huge issue as to often the gaps between zones are huge and the midfield in particular neither support our forwards or protect the defense.
I also think the coaches insistence on strict adherence to possession system are detrimental to some of our players strengths and stifling creativity.
I meant to add to my last post, a third option…..that Brendan himself is losing motivation.

=======================================================
Good point .
PL ???!!!???
Make that LG.
That Hun Rob Mc Lean loves every Hun in a blue jersey.Every one a star.
penalty huns
PHILBHOY. I am sorry to say I think you may well have hit the nail on the head in your post at 9.40. H.H.
And why was James Forrest the last line of defence on our right side at the penalty?
Rapid arseing about,penslty Huns.FFS.
The gulf in class between Salzburg and Vienna is astonishingly enormous.
trying to console about gulf in class is pointless they have won we were crap
Brendan ..out.
Stephen Clarke ..in.
Sevco now top of their Group.
Wel lost to a side much more technically proficient than ourselves. The comments about the Europa league being our level are not on the money. We are a poor European side and our manager, whilst i love him, seems to learn nothing from previous European performances. Totally expected that result unfortunately, even when we went one up.
why would stephen clarke work for peter lawell?
sevco back to bite us
