Scouts will have seen different aspects in Malmo and Glasgow

446

Malmo quickly followed up their best result of the season against Salzburg with a 2-1 win over top of the table Gothenburg.  They remain four points off the pace but whatever form issues they have had in recent months appear to be resolved.

Champions League football was a harsh experience for Malmo last season.  They qualified after beating Salzburg 3-0 in the play-off round, coincidentally the same score they beat the same opponents by in the last round.  While Salzburg went on to top Celtic’s Europa League group, Malmo lost home and away to Juventus and Atletico Madrid, winning their only points in a home win over Olympiakos.

I’m sure Celtic will have scouted yesterday’s game in Malmo and will have learned more about the home team than Malmo learned about Celtic during yesterday’s stroll in the park at Firhill.  We will have seen them at their best, they will have seen us scarcely breaking sweat.

Ronny will have an idea of the extent of the challenge ahead.  Malmo might not be a match for Juventus or Atletico but they know how to play European football.  We will all have an important job to do at Celtic Park next week.

  1. Have a look at the feature on the new Celticnewsnow app. It’s really good and is well worth downloading. It will give you easy access to CQN and all other Celtic sites and news stories on the club in the MSM. It’s free to download.

  2. Jmacormack – when you day ‘shoot their fox’, do you mean Boydchenko, their ‘fox in the box’?

    Any latest from Auldheid on Res 12 / response from SFA ???

    Nothing to report yet but I think there will be by next week, one way or another.

    Hi – sorry I missed your reply (went to bed) – thanks for getting back to me.

     

     

    Next week could be a very big week then – hopefully the SFA will have been boxed in to a corner and cannot wriggle out this time. All praise for you and others’ efforts on this, no matter the eventual outcome.

    ……..and if you’re never 20 pts clear?

     

     

    Cups are now of no value to us, except, in bringing on youngsters – with no threat to our CL aspirations…….and who knows our second-string may just win one…..for fun.

    Fair enough.

    I actually accept that there are things about the Celtic support that I would like to change but I do not want to get into that debate again so we will call it quits. Off out to do some work and hope that wearing my Celtic top does not cost me my life, as it can do here in ‘proper’ Ireland (as indeed it can in ‘proper’ Scotland).

  10. No experiments in the cup for me please.

     

     

    I’d personally make the league cup an under 21 or 23 tourney but that’s another matter.

     

     

    Leagues can be won with multiple defeats. Cups cannot.

  17. Well I was excited to see us linked with that Club Brugge CB

     

     

    I am sure somebody mentioned him as being our main target 5 or 6 weeks ago but saying we wouldn’t sign him until Brugge are knocked out the CL qualifiers and we sell VVD.

     

     

    Was it South of Tunis who got it from a Belgian source?

  18. Re the Celtic Newsnow App:

     

     

    Been using it for a couple of days and really like it but everyone should be aware that if you click on a story, you may well be taken through to the newspapers that I certainly wouldn’t normally give oxygen to, never mind revenue.

     

     

    Just saying like …..

    She’s a smashing lass,indeed. We are both blessed wi multiple smashing lasses in our lives.

     

     

    Secret is to not let them know we know.

     

     

    Which might be helped by not saying so on an open forum!

    Is the View still connected with Trinity publishers?

     

     

    Celtic really ought to sever all ties with the DR family.
