    I just cannot see where we are going to get the goals from. Our set pieces, which were our main goal threat last season, have been poor. Our delivery and final ball in the final third has been truly woeful and our link up play is really lacking. I really think we will do well to get any win.

    No.

    Even third place could prove a difficult prospect now.

    We just need to get something from the next game. A point away is a good result.

    I think to qualify we will need to get at least a point in the last game and not sure if that will be possible, however by then hopefully we will have 3rd spot, which at the start of the group, I think most of us would have taken :50:
    Just want Euro football after Christmas again :60: HH

    Qualifying is a pipe dream. It ain't going to happen.

    Get beat by Ajax in 2 weeks and that's the campaign done & dusted in October. It really is a must win if we want to stay in Europe beyond Christmas.

    - We can take 4 points of Ajax
    - We can beat Milan at CP (Bigger and better teams have came here and got humped)
    - Milan will probably only take 1 point of Barça
    - Barça will play the exact same way as the other night, meaning that we have a chance in the nou camp....that coupled with the fact that they will be home and dry and will probably not play Messi means we have a chance at taking a point
    - Arguably, we have played out 2 hardest games...I know some people are disappointed at the result in the San Siro due to the circumstances.....but when the groups were drawn i was not expecting to take any points of Milan away or Barca at home - even though I was pleasantly surprised by both performances
    - Milan should beat Ajax at the San Siro

    8 points is possible

    Barça 16 points
    Celtic 8 Points
    Milan 8 Points
    Ajax 2 points

    Why not?

    We still have 2 home games and we could nick something away in the Dam and Barca.

    All to play for...

    Hey folks. Just a heads up that tickets for the Ajax game have now become available online.

    I was going to say no, but reading that has filled me with confidence.

    I really don't see us leaving Amsterdam with 3 points like most people do.

    We'll probably draw at Celtic Park and lose 1-0 over there.

    I will be * delighted with 1 point in the Dam.
    We are bang even with Ajax for my money, we have better defence and they have have better attack. We could very easily lost both games to them, I think we're a good team now but we still have low confidence/composure in Europe and Ajax are far from *.

    I don`t think we will win in Amsterdam either but a point would be enough. Barca will beat Milan in the next two games and I think we will take 4 points from Ajax. It really is going to be tight as * between the 3 of us heading into that last game. Ajax could quite easily sneak a point in Milan as well. There might be a good chance Barca will throw a second team out in Amsterdam as well

    Ajax away will be tougher than Milan away, they are a better team.

    I still firmly believe we are more than good enough to qualify, it's just difficult to take that comment seriously but WHEN we beat Ajax that will change. The group will take on a much different complexion with each passing match day.

    we just don't have a good enough goal threat. I'm not convinced we'll get 3 goals never mind win 3 games.

    We could easily walk out of this with no points but having played well in all of our games, its that tight between the teams apart from up front
