Teenage Matthews excels on Celtic right

1021

The most interesting point to make about Adam Matthews is that, for another month anyway, he is still a teenager.  You and I have seen enough of these games to know that the occasion has a habit of consuming inexperienced youth but Adam patrolled Celtic’s right with remarkable authority last night.  All the more remarkable considering this was his first game back after injury.

Football business for 2011 is finished and new signing, Swedish international right back, Mikael Lustig (25), is now available for selection.  At 6’3” Mikael has previously played in central defence but Neil Lennon insisted the player was primarily recruited as a right back but, despite the rate Celtic right backs pick up injuries, the need appears greater in central defence.  It’s hard to see Adam Matthews losing the right back berth.

    Bobby Murdoch is one of the greatest passers ever.

     

    Where is your evidence to compare Ki.

     

    Iv’e rarely seen him pass anywhere but sideways and backwards and usually 4or 5 yards at most.

     

    Murdoch was the master of the long diagonal.

     

    When Ki plays we revert to being a slow ponderous team who creates very little.

     

    He has the skill but is not suited to us.

  2. CultsBhoy loves being 1st on

    I’ve been in a gay bar all night on my own…MWD copped off with someone as soon as he got in and left me…hey-ho some you win…

    Hooper was outnumbered on every occasion a cross came in as the centre miss did not go forward in support.

     

    His work off the ball is excellent so can’t see your point.

    Well said…

  10. There were a few posts earlier on tonight regarding Muldini and Broadfoot in the 92nd minute.

     

     

    Just watched a re run of the game and would urge everyone to pay special attention. Charlie is really laughing his erchie aff at big Kirky’s hardman attempt. Not smirking or smiling but really really pashing himself !!! Well worth checking out…

    No gay lords in the company tonight by the way…kingoh came close…lol…:)

    Does that mean we can’t play the Cuellar Cheating B*strd video anymore ?

     

     

    —————-

     

     

    If that’s the case it’s no for me…..

  14. Apparently Cultsbhoy intended to turn up until he heard that MWD was hosting a lumberjack night in Bennetts…

    Nice to have you back posting – KTF!

  18. Would take the ugly Carlos in a 2nd

     

    Fan tic. We will agree to disagree

     

    Hooper never holds ball to bring his team mates into play

     

    At times yesterday , when had position he just stood there

     

    We Need a #9 that runs to near post at crosses

     

    Stokes is a far more effective player, we need a goalscorer

     

    Hooper is ok , but we must improve and buy a striker who would be a threat in Europe

  19. Tommy Joad… I noticed it at time Charlie bhoy laughing at broadfoot to his face ! Eggy eye was raging
